Superb feature on Nigel Benn

Post by Deserter »

Loved reading this piece in The Guardian and so glad he seems to be in a great place, mentally and physically. Still one of my favourite ever fighters and looks like he's continuing to inspire others on a daily basis:

Brilliant piece, any fan of the Dark Destroyer has to read this.

Benn ‘Australia? You must be mad, everything’s venomous’. Then I worked through it. We black men don’t surf so that ruled out sharks.” :lol:

Excellent article. Benn was a brilliantly entertaining fighter and genuine world class for a number of years.
