Gerald McClellan was forever damaged by this fight mentally and physically, but lets also not forget that Nigel Benn was also emotionally scarred by this fight

Good post. His sister is HUGE hearted, and I didn't know Iran Barkley was so involved -- so nice to see the Blade, who also fought Nigel.

This is the risk of stepping into the ring. Boxing is merely modern day gladiators... You can get disabled, you can die...It is not a game...

Before he was injured he said he was going to kill nigel benn in the ring !!! And also bred dogs for fighting ! I guess his injury made him a better man then

@Dreamy8900 7 месяцев назад

@@wakeylad68everyone says shit like that to promote the fight. So many fighters have said that before and no one batted an eye but it’s only bad when this man does it. And you act like you’re better than him when in reality you probably are not! Before and after the injury. Not having sympathy for someone in that state shows you don’t have good morals

This fight and the Eubank Watson fight happening so close together broke all men involved. However I think the most painful thing is seeing him after the fight. People need to see this. No matter how tough you are. He was/is one of the toughest men I've ever seen and this can happen to him out can happen to anyone. I can't imagine what it feels like to have done that to someone though it must be horrendous. What a family that man has though true strength right there. That sister of his is truly a beautiful soul. Inside and out. More time has passed since this was filmed than had between then and the fight. 2007 man

'Heart of gold' Buying labrador puppies for his prize pitbull to rip apart in what he regarded as sparring for the dog? Given his history mcclellan should not have been given medical care in Britain at the taxpayers expense which lasted 10 months. They should've dumped him outside

@mrkipling2201 Год назад

Yes, that was a disgusting scene, the dog fighting stuff. I believe that everyone deserves a 2nd chance though. Including Gerald McClellan. Plus his family deserve assistance after looking after him for all these years. There's a few exceptions with the 2nd chance thing. Paedophiles, rapists, murderers for example. Everyone apart from that.

@Mr.Scimitar 27 дней назад

May God Bless Gerald. I had two cousins that fought professionally. One of them took some damage and it shows. As fans we love to watch these guys in the ring but, it does take a toll on any and all fighters. I studied and watched my older cousins but my parents wouldnt allow me to compete. I knew that I would have been a champion but i also thank my parents for making the choice for me to not take that damage.

@BauBOO Месяц назад

I remember an old story along time ago, there was a video about this 10 years ago but they took it down prob 10 years ago, I remember it saying that Gerald was not allowed to finish off Nigel Benn. Stan johnson and Don King wouldn't let him, they wanted him to not finish Nigel Benn. When Gman almost finished Benn in first round Don king was mad. Stan Johnson kept telling Gman to not finish Benn. But I don't know, I just remember watching a video talking about it 10 years ago.

@jasonspalding 7 месяцев назад

the accidental headbutt didn't help, but the head punches McClellan took through out that fight was unreal, i dont think he'd ever been hit so hard, you need to look at McClellan corner if you're looking for blame, not benn.

@irvinmorales1409 6 месяцев назад

There were a myriad of factors that led to this tragedy happening. Most of all was McClellan's brutal training and fights. Benn just happened to be the straw that broke the camel's back.

@andisadler2897 Год назад

At 15.21 Lisa said you forgive someonme when they purposely done something!. Ive never heard anything like it. It was just a accident, one of those accidents. Could have happened to anyone and yes we all so sorry about it. Don King is more guilty than anyone for leaving Gerald this way. where his nurse, wheres his care. Sick of people blaming Benn. IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.

Ask the promoters. They are the ones that fix the fights or the board of control. Boxing is full of wankers. Hearn and Arum being 2 of the biggest.

All sports are the same. Once you are used up, broken, or no longer profitable, they would put you down like an injured race horse. What Gerald did to that dog was wrong, but none of us are without sin.

@brianmorecombe2726 4 месяца назад

All the excuses came out after this fight were just plain shallow.McClellan was badly prepared and was unable to put in any plan b and just boxed really badly.Benn richly deserved victory and it easily could have been him badly injured.But as a good sportsman,McClellan failed imo due to the disgusting dog fighting activities he was involved in.

@ryand141 Месяц назад

Just noticed that Mclellan had his gumshield out in Rd 1 (see photo). He was more than likely severely injured going into this fight. But this will probably never been known. Corrupt boxing. Also,, if you think this is brutal, go watch the Grifith vs Paret fight.
