Me and my son had a fantastic time watching Benn and Eubank beating 10 bales of out of each other. On the 2nd return fight we celebrated my last day of being 69, as tomorrow I will CELEBRATE MY 70th Birthday. Two great legends like me and my son. ❤
I went to to this fight at old Trafford,and watched two great warriors battle it out! Pure boxing entertainment,but I reckon benn just edged it! Great memories!
Interesting, just listened to Eubank live on talk sport “Benn beat me” straight from the horses mouth. None the less, glad I was able to watch these 2 live in their prime, both would clean up today!
Eubank was never the same after he hurt Watson. He has carried that guilt with him ever since. Imagine the destroyer that Sr could have become if that tragedy never happened. People loved to hate Chris but I always loved the man. Both were absolute beasts in their heyday. I wish I could relive the time as Prince Naseem was coming through too.
Two legends, a brilliant boxer, and a ferocious fighter. Two great fights and 1-1 let’s be honest. And now both have sons with the exact same attributes the genes are strong
No no buddy, just no! Their sons do not have the same attributes, and the genes are not strong. They are barely half the men that their dads are, they did not inherit from the strong end of the gene pool. Their dads were world beaters, bigger, faster, stronger, tougher.
I loved watching benn eubank, jim watt, and so on, on normal tv, seemed to be a big fight every other week, those were great days, and some memorable fights, including these both, Chris eubank for me was my favourite fighter, then the man who beat him joe calzahge became my favourite boxer to watch, bennn was absolutely a warrior also though
Remember watching this at the time, was shouting for Benn , but a fan of both fighters. On reflection I’d still have narrowly given this to benn. Eubanks chin was unreal.
Never saw this one. What a tremendous fight between two true champions. Glad for England to have such a war. A draw was good but I thought Benn had the edge. Either way both fighters were superb champions and fought at the highest level of hand to hand combat. They fought in the trenches, landing combinations, back and forth. It was physical and there were many huge shots landed by both men. It was high drama and both champions displayed the true heart of warrior code. Mexico amd America have a long list of the greatest fights and fighters so it is noteworthy that England had this epic battle. Both champions were exceptional and gave the highest performance possible between 2 men fighting under the Marquess of queensberry rules.
Pretty equal fight, but Ben was fighting dirty by hitting the Chris on the back of head countless times in the highlights, how much more so in the full fight?! Chris was much more honest when Ben was out of position, he did not take advantage of Ben. Because of these, I would have to give Chris Eubank the edge.
You're being very selective. Eubank was the one who at one point tried to hit Benn with a sucker punch, having offered to touch gloves just before. A real low class move. Overall, it was a great fight, between two real warriors. But Benn won the fight.
Absolute warriors. The great thing about you tube is you can't slow these videos down to 0.75. Sometimes these guys are so fast that when you watch it live you miss stuff. I remember watching this fight live as a kid and thinking Benn clearly won it. Yet when you slow it down a bit you see just how good a lot of eubanks work was. And Benn definitely outworked him so a draw was probably a fair result. But when you watch it live at normal speed you miss so much.
I remember watching this and I had watched the first fight and I really saw that one fight didn’t mean that was the facts and the conclusion. Benn won this one and I don’t know what the commentators were watching so I also realised that you don’t listen to that stuff… no, you judge it with your own eyes and mind and that’s how to watch the greatest sport ever ❤
I hope the youth of today can come to their senses and watch PROPER BOXERS like these guys,, To actually think Jake Paul is a genuine contender is LAUGHABLE!!! TO the youth of today please watch proper boxing and you will see there are LEVELS,,,
Chris does not look good in this fight at all he was a better boxer than benn but he sure was off that night and I agree w most benn won that fight on points alone
They were both very good boxers and warriors but they didn’t fight the best on the other side of the pond…….Bernard Hopkins, Roy Junior Jones or James Toney. Those 3 in that time were far far superior.
Miss the days when we could watch world title fights on terrestrial tv
Absolutely… I remember FIGHT NIGHT would be advertised
You must be very old🤣🤣🤣
Yeah i'm tired of watching fights on Martian tv
@@joaquimmarques4820you gonna be old one day aswell that is if you can make it to old age the future is very uncertain

Yeah his math's aint best mate hes deffo ,100 now with alzheimers
@@Beaver2.0 🤣🤣
10:29 that head movement from Benn in that crouching position is insane
His leg and movement work was insane!
@@doublewhopper67 how is headmovement usless he dodged every punch did he not? Elaborate
....
He did this a lot in the Gerald McClean fight especially in the first round.
Benn won that. Simply .....as that
No eubank wined won yes winned
Don't you mean 'thimply'
Except he didn't
No he didn't

@@19822andy I’m sure we’d all relive the 90s if we could brother
What a great fight, love the highlights
I was a Benn fan, but you have to give credit to Eubanks guile & intelligence. Both true warriors.

There rivalry is up there with the greatest fights in the history of boxing
I watched this fight and benn won this and eubank knew it
yep
I used to watch these games with my father. I will never forget.

Benn clearly won the rematch, nobody can convince me otherwise
Agreed

What a good fighter he is, I'm glad we got the draw, now we can do it again 🤣 Chris Eubank is just perfect

Eubanks has to be up there with one of the greatest technical boxers of all time
Should have been Benn for that rematch without a doubt
The back head shots, they were accidental right?
Round 11 was the dark destroyers round for sure he put together a hell of a rally, these guys fights are good combat
Yeah, Great Highlights 👍
The Point deduction was the defining factor. Plus Eubank was champ. Benn had to win clearly on judges card which he didnt
The big fight live
That music intro
Wow days before big sky ripping you off
Brilliant fights back then, not just deals for money 😊

Boxers are the ultimate athlete and warrior
Benn loved “ the blow” he admitted 👀 these 2 guys Are still dangerous I’m sure😳💪
Benn hung around with some really dodgy people, the Essex boys, Carlton Leach, Tony Tucker etc, they were part of his corner for a while.
Best era for boxing
I remember watching this and I had watched the first fight and I really saw that one fight didn’t mean that was the facts and the conclusion.

Who in your opinion is the best benn or eubank? Im giving it to the dark destroyer b coz of raw aggression and power punches?
Nigel Benn won that fight. I watched it live at the time. More than 30 years later, that is still my opinion.
I think benn shades it
In the day benn bruno was the pride of Britain
I was there!
Pity Roy Jones didn't want any of this smoke.
Lol he would have bodied both the same night. Levels to this.
@@mathewsiebuhr4760 talk is cheap
@@LloydChristmasAspenThey weren't in the same league as Jones or James Toney.
Steve Collins did want some of that smoke. He beat them both twice.
@@jimbyrne2328
And Jones didn't want the Collins fight either.
marvelous boxers , proper hard bastards
Thats a lot of questionable back of the head shots from Benn
2:34 you couldn’t see a more epic sight in the best superhero movie ever made
😂
The expressionless eubank pose
was gangster.
@@karl2896 I’m almost certain you see a wry smile crack on Eubank’s lips as he clocks Nigel flexing at him.
Just small shot of tony tucker on the right hand of nigel Benn (left of the screen) on his entrance to the ring
Back in the days when I had half ounce of puff in me pocket.😂😂❤❤👊👊✌️✌️
🥰🥰🥰 Duel yang sangat seruuu👍
2 great fighters
Benn won this one, Clearly.
Benn❤ won eubank still probably the most intelligent boxer but benn had the heart and the power but what a chin eubank had
Prime hungry British lions , I only wish before they pass they come to fully respect each other
Eubank was so tough, the punches he took off Benn, wow
Great fight ooo
I felt Benne won, he was robbed.
Benn was robbed 🥊
What a beast of a fight , they would have fought for free in those days
Ben best boxing he ever done he is a brawler that night he did the best boxing in his life. Like Frank all of England loved him
Esas eran pelea de verdad , no como las de hoy
I lost respect for Eubank with that cheap glove touch.
Commentator said benn hadn't improved since their first meeting . Nonsense
I watched the fight 100 time ben piss it best boxing ben ever done
Boxers back in the day could take a shot!!
I agree with earlier comment Benn win second fight.Outboxed Eubank and used his boxing knowledge.
Draw was injustice.
Ben won
Close figbt so whoever u wanted to win is who won the fight🤣🤣
Ben the 🧃 men
Clearly Benn won.
Benn completely ROBBED! I remember it well
I hope the youth of today can come to their senses and watch PROPER BOXERS like these guys,,
To actually think Jake Paul is a genuine contender is LAUGHABLE!!!
TO the youth of today please watch proper boxing and you will see there are LEVELS,,,
From the highlights it's Nigel Benn who won this fight.
As if either of these guy's would've beaten Mike McCallum James Toney and Michael Nunn is incomprehensible.👍😉
Mannn! If toucans back of the head shots were illegal back then Eubank wouldv been DQ's in the 2nd round. Wtf. Benn got mega robbed that night.
Parliamentary procedure vs. personal hatred
Ben ome that
Fabulous period for british boxing
Hearn predicted the Draw, what does that tell you???
Benn is lowering his head below the belt line! I think he's not allowed to do it! Benn
Proper proper rough men
Tough as they come
Chris does not look good in this fight at all he was a better boxer than benn but he sure was off that night and I agree w most benn won that fight on points alone
No because he never went for knockouts after Watson. Was never the same after that . He was a far superior boxer to Ben
No that how good benn was best fight nigel Benn ever fault
That is why he was called the dark destroyer second to no one the best
Benn won that fight. Disgusting decision.
That was a sweet DRAWN fight
That point taken still didn't justify a draw in my opinion. Thought benn won that when i watched it back in the day & haven't changed my opinion.
both roided up too nines.
Ben cleaned his clock all day long
Was Benn Juiced
Absolutely 😳
no one is not juiced ....
@@depaola63 don't talk shit. Just accept he was the better fighter fs.
@@jakelamotta2387 I am NOT talking shit sir! I watched his documentary sir! Maybe you should too sir!
@@jakelamotta2387just like his boy ate his eggs
As if it was yesterday
Im 50 ❤
Wonder what dr&gs Benn was on that night!! 😂
"CHA WHAT!!?"
I’ve watched this fight multiple times. Benn wins this fight every day of the week. They just robbed him unfortunately. Point deduction and all.
Nigel benn ❤❤❤ he won the fight
WHAT MAKES EUBANKS SPECIAL WITH ALL THOSE MISSED AND CLUMSY SHOTS?
I had my money in the Eu-Bank, but Benn robbed me.
jimmy lennon jnr is such an empty suit. Total waste of space.
Everyone called him Eubanks back then. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They were both very good boxers and warriors but they didn’t fight the best on the other side of the pond…….Bernard Hopkins, Roy Junior Jones or James Toney. Those 3 in that time were far far superior.
Top fight
Benn did a lot of hitting behind the head 😒
Nigel kept on ducking so low he could have kissed Chris’s bootlaces.chris GOAT.
1,40
Frank Warren Franmasonry detected.
All Benn does is duck his head illegally. Can’t believe he got away with it after he did it so much in the first. Just cheating
Eubank people can say what they have to say he was fair and honest?❤
Benn all the way ❤ was highway robbery ❤❤
Great warriers.
Great fight. Cris Eubank is matchless superb
The real thing…..
Benn like falling out the ring huh?
I love ben but he landed countless shots behind the head, on the back , below the belt ,
Jim watt....useless commentary as always
What's Benn done since the first fight? He won the wbc title!
