This man is a national treasure. His honesty is so refreshing in a day of spin and lies. Great fighter and a better man!

Nigel Benn, superstar. He won't remember this, but he gave me a good hiding when he was in the RRF all those years ago. I followed his whole boxing career, and what a rollercoaster. Top man, hope your son goes to the same heights.

Nigel is so generous in his praise of other Boxers.

Hats off to the man, he doesn't hide anything and tells exactly how he feels and above all he was an absolute savage!

Benn has barely aged a day. He is in amazing shape and as sharp as ever. Thank you so much for your fights man. Great role model.

All im going to say is? "WOW" What a amazing personality. No ego. No chip on the shoulder. No hype. Just pure honesty. This interview was Brill. Hats off to you. Sir.👌

One of the most exciting and best fighters to ever come out of the UK.

Now there's a man at peace with himself, good to see

Remember when Eubank and Nigel did that gladiator tv program... comedy gold

My favorite fighter of all time, love his passion, his honesty and the fact he is now a strong humble man!

I just love Nigel Benn, his heart in the ring and out is amazing. His honesty and determination are just a great listen, whether it's in the ring or applied to life....what a man, what a character...

Benn is pure CLASS. Noble in defeat and even more so in victory. Wow.

BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES SUCH A HUMBLE MAN WITH SO MUCH HEART FOND MEMORIES OF THE GREAT FIGHTER AND A HUMAN BEING

I usually fasr forward KZfaq videos bur I was absolutely enthralled listening to Nigel. What a star and national treasure.

Those kids at the back have no idea how big of a legend Nigel Benn is.

Nigel is an absolute legend! His gym was up the road from my parents pub. Remember watching him train as a kid, he was a f'in beast!

A neighbour of mine growing up once told me Nigel Ben saved his life. But he said Ben was a soldier at the time.

That was brilliant.What an honest and humble legend.Also love the respect he payed to joe calzhage.

I saw Nigel Benn outside my school 1st March 1993. He signed my homework diary whilst sitting in his black Mercedes SL. Remember it like it was yesterday. 38 years old now wow time fly’s

One of the best and most honest interviews I've ever seen from any fighter. What an incredible career he had.

He has that Mike Tyson thing about him. Even though he's out of the game, humble, kind and good for a laugh, you have to watch what you say and how you move around him.

Big up the Garage ravers that used to rave to Nigel Benn when he was a Garage DJ back in NYE 1997. Shout out to all the Exposure ravers, The Powerhouse Stratford. Top DJ and legendary boxer.

Fighting the National front and always winning. LEGEND

What a gracious man our Nigel is, and what a fighter ....God bless him.

What a totally honest interview? The man has no side to him at all. Full respect to him, a complete warrior ,and a complete human being.

Spirit of a warrior shown throughout his career. Great battles fought and won both inside and out the ring. A truly accomplished man. Great job Nigel.

Warrior with a pair of gloves on. Exciting to watch, never disappointed win or lose. Gave it his all. God bless you, Nigel!!!

My Favorite Boxer loved to watch him fight, so exciting and patriotic ...amazing guy.

One thing you got to love about fighters, particularly once they get "older" especially,...they are the most straightforward, real type of guys there are. Very noticeable.

The more I learn about Nigel Benn, the more I respect the man. Beautiful interview!

His fights were bloody exciting. He could be staggering about, on his way down and hed find something from his boots and knock his opponent out. It was great stuff.

Can we have some parliamentary procedure here 🧐

Great to see Benn looking and sounding so healthy. Long live the Champ.

Can still remember the atmosphere coming through the tv in the McClellan fight.Spine tingling.

Enjoyed this so much. A rigorously honest man. Always exciting to watch. What an interesting interview with a memorable boxer and person.

Nigel Benn was a beast... Him against the likes of Tommy Hearns, Carl Froch and Gennady Golovkin are my dream fights...

By far my favorite british fighter of that era. Nigel Benn was a hero to many.

What a warrior Nigel Benn was. He had some epic fights and brilliant KOs

Benn, Eubank and Watson were epic. Great listening and hearing what a great man he is too. Certainly, some of my best boxing memories while living in the UK. NZ

I have a newfound respect for Niel Benn. Great guy, and very honest!

Love a bit of Nigel Benn, so exciting to watch.

huge Nigel Benn fan, seems like a genuine person.

A warriors heart, a warriors honesty. Thank you, Nigel.

I'm glad these two great British warriors - Benn and Eubank - have buried their differences and are now on relatively good terms. Always a pleasure to listen to Nigel (and Chris); thanks for uploading.

my favourite boxer growing up when the big fights were free on ITV Goodtimes

Bless you Ben, I've never seen such a honest and humble Interview. I think its fair to say his life and professional experiences are something the up and coming fighters can take alot from.

So much love for him. Great fighter and an equally great person. Would love to meet him and have a picture with him. What a legend.

I sparred with Nigel Ben once. He can really punch and his elusiveness really surprised me. Nigel is right about Michael Watson he was very skillful. I sparred with him around 5 times and after sparring with he taught me about inside fighting, stamina and how much I needed to take road work more serious. Michael Watson would take you to the trenches, in deep waters and drown you. I also sparred with Steve Collings and put him down once. What I learned from Steve Collins was determination. After I put hi down he got up and gave me one hell of a tough sparring session at The Thomas A Becket Old Kent road. He knows how to pressure fight. I used to call him the spoiler. Steve Collings could make the best boxer look untidy. Nigel Benn is a legend.

"Being unfaithful to my wife" Most would have said they regretted not taking this fight or that fight, they could have been more savvy with the money they made, they could have trained harder or taken things more serious etc...

RIP to Nigel's bruva

Absolute total LEGEND!! Nigel has always been a hero to me man. Best fighter out of all the other boxers of his time. God bless ya brother, top, TOP man!

Love it, release some more of these on here and also bring it back!!!

Brilliant interview. Nigel Benn great value in and out of ring

Touching honesty , watched his fights with Eubank, like him even more now , great man ,, Still like Eubank , for different reasons great story’s , cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧

Everything about Benn has always been upfront, honest and real. Love the bit @ 11:38 where Johnny remembers Benn ‘whizzing up an down in his Porsche’ and Benn goes ‘you got a good memory man...’ Great interview like mates reminiscing over a pint 🥊

Enjoyed this so much ! I loved watching you as a fighter but enjoyed this look back equally. Thank you

"Always fighting with the NF, and always winning" 😆

My favorite boxer ..I even joined the army and left my amateur boxing career to try and fulfil my ambition.. But ended up injured and discharged...love this man

This guy gave me my love of watching boxing, golden era... God bless you Nigel.

Great interview. Nigel very modest man, considering the great levels he has reached. And great interviewrs

Nigel Benn seems to have mellowed over the years and even become likeable, whereas for years he came over, to me, as a sneering bully. I always liked Eubank because, though he often came over as a nut-job, he was always a character who sent HIMSELF up most of the time. He was also a very brave and skilful fighter.

Benn was my favourite boxer ever. Still is.

"What a really nice guy, honest grounded, some boxers don't come cross too well when interviewed, he's inspirational, great interview and personality!!

Only just watched this video and my only thoughts are what a guy. He gave the British public so much excitement during his career and we should be thankful to have had him around

He was the real mini Mike Tyson without the jab really. The weaving style and two handed power.

each time i see Nigel Benn as the years pass' i just respect him more and more' what a guy'' he bypasses colour prejudices he's honest and talks from the soul! great great natural fighter and a true British legend... he even cries with pride and and no shame' shows he's the real deal and an example for any young fighter' to learn from his highs and lows! brilliant fighter!

Enjoyed that thanks very much for putting it on

When I worked in security met Caroline Nigel and the twins and he was so gracious to give his autograph , some great memories of a great great boxer and an even greater man now I salute you sir Benn 🥊👏🏾👏🏾👑

Remember him driving past me and my dad in eastham, Nigel Benn is a legend with the heart of a lion loved watching him go to war everytime he stepped into the ring

A true legend: served his country, exceptional and very entertaining boxer, talented DJ, family man ........ He came across really well in this interview.

What a really good Interview, so much honesty from Benn. He had his flaws but so entertaining to watch and a fantastic fighter.

Great interview. All the best Nigel from Dublin x

It's not just the "drama" of Benn's fights, it's his heart that wins everyone over. We all know we're not invincible, but Benn is so honest.

Never forget the benn McLennan fight, me and my mate were selling the programmes on the door at Wembley arena and I remember our boss said if you sell them all you can stay and watch the fight, so 5 minutes before the fight started we chucked what programs we had left 😂 and walked down near the ringside (wearing our access all area passes round our necks) and watch the fight. Has to be one of the best nights of my life. And we got paid for it!!!!

I loved them both. It was beautiful and poetic and mesmerising watching both Benn and Eubank at work. Thank you both!

the first time i've ever seen Nigel Benn interviewed . What a genuine nice guy 1000%

My favourite British boxer of all time.

Nigel Benn has more heart than almost every other boxer around today he will forever be remembered as the one of the greatest fighters of all time

My fav fighter of all time and always loved to watch this guy in the ring, Nigel you were just superb 👍

ABSOLUTE LEGEND ! Thanks for the GREAT NIGHTs you gave us Mate !

An absolute gentleman and honest to the core, he will always be one of the greatest boxers ever . There will never be another Nigel 🥊

It’s amazing how many boxers talk about how important to them their wife is. Many boxers come from broken homes and finding someone who loves them, truly loves them seems to be the most amazing thing, almost what they were searching for and why they were fighting.

Great fighter, top, top value for money man. So glad to see him well and with a mission in life once more. We still have the vids though and I watch them all over again from time to time.

Good to see, Benn happy, healthy, and at peace. A truly epic fighter.

Proper warriors, I was at the old Trafford fight, no mobile phones, I was ringing round every place from Yellow Pages and just managed to get a small room for me and a mate (rip Gary). Great times

16:13 Nigel lets you know how much he hated Eubank.

Great respect for Nigel, he was a fantastic fighter who we watched back in the day. Where all getting old it seems, thank God for our memories of our beloved greatest fighters.

Legend. At a boxing evening with Nigel Benn, this amazing guy sits down after his talk and chats with us for a couple of hours over a few 😉 beers. An absolute gentleman and for me nobody comes close.

Honestly love this man , top guy . Rooting for his sons aswell . Respect n love benns 🙏💪💚

He looks just as dangerous today... Greate fighter!

I'm from hove & used to see Chris around and about regularly. First see Chris fight Dan Sherry in Brighton in 87/88 at the Brighton centre. Great days of boxing.

My band was on the same bill as Nigel for a fundraiser at Repton school a couple of years ago. When he arrived we couldn't resist playing his 1990 hit song "Stand and fight" over our PA. He loved it and spoke to us briefly - both then and during his one man show in which he recounted his highs and lows he came across as a lovely person but still with a lot of edge. A class act.

Best comeback fight I ever watched was Benn V mcclellen. Mcclellen was number 2 in ring magazine fighter of the year at the time behind only the great Roy Jones. Its reported even Jones avoided mcclellen who was an absolutely devastating puncher and good boxer with it which is rare with big punchers. How Benn managed to carry on when mcclellen knocked him through the ropes was beyond me, mcclellens punches were sickeningly hard. It was the best display of sheer will and determination I have ever seen in a boxing ring. The fight was so brutal neither man would be the same again. A genuine true great our nige

I actually enjoyed it. Hope Sky does more interviews like this.

Great interview! I really enjoyed it! 👍🏽

You can see that Nigel is a complex character with flaws we all carry , but he achieved everything he could and is deservedly held up as a UK legend...like all those greats he was in, around and amongst he deserves huge respect.....well done pal.

Ferocious fighter, an ace amongst kings......🥊🥊🥊

Brilliant boxer.... Absolutely loved this era of British boxing.... Benn fought with courage, power, skill and heart. Will we see an era like that again???? Sadly not....

Nigel Benn- the Staffordshire Bull terrier of the boxing world! Seriously powerful, tenacious and fearless. What a Golden era it was back when Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank were at their peak. Awesome athletes the pair of them. RESPECT.

Nigel Benn, God bless you, you are an inspiration, you are a good man. Every man makes mistakes but it takes a special man to admit it to himself, learn and make amends... you did and that makes you great!
