:to: finding out later why G Man couldnt keep the mouth piece in

yeah that fight is just a tragic classic breh..its sad because you wont find better fights than this but just like the mago-perez fight you can't just talk about the action unfortunately..boxing is a brutal sport

whats the story behind that?

basically was suffering from brain injuries during the fight, which ended up being amplified due to how brutal the fight was (Benn fought dirty imo and had ref home cooking). Gerald ending up not being able to finish/passing out in his corner and the rest is history. He started showing signs after his Julian Jackson bouts. Gerald had a chin of stone.

you have to watch the fight to see what i mean about the mouth piece, his eyes blinking and etc.

its a tragic fight but as much as benn ended g-man's career, g-man also finished up benn....broken nose, broken jaw, torn muscles in his neck, urinating blood, and gave him a shadow on the brain..benn fought on afterwards for a little bit more but he was done
