#Repost @holygrailboxing with @get_repost γ»γ»γ» Gerald G-Man McClellan was a two-time world champion, who only suffered defeat three times as a professional. He won his first title, the WBO middleweight belt in 1991, when he faced The "BeastβΒ John MugabiΒ at the Royal Albert Hall. Mugabi was knocked down three times in the opening round and winning by a first round ko as the G-Man cruised to win the vacant title. McCLELLAN, born October 23 1967, only went to points four times in his career, winning and losing two, and he never went past 10 rounds in his 34 fights, of which 29 were knockout victories. He knocked out 29 of the men he faced. He vacated the WBO belt without making a single defence, in fact the title remained vacant until 1993, and he began to hunt down the WBC champion, Julian Jackson. . . McCLELLAN finally got his hands on Jackson in Las Vegas in May of 1993, stopping him in the fifth of a wild encounter to become a two-time world champion. . THE G-MAN defended the WBC belt twice, before stopping Jackson inside a round in the rematch. But, he couldnβt resist the lure of Benn and the super-middleweight division. . . The G-Man metΒ Benn at the new London arena in millwall , with the WBC title on the line and he started great sending benn flying through the ropes in the first round. He had Benn down again in the eighth, but in the 10th and fading fast, McClellan took a knee, blinking and gulping back air, even though he wasnβt on the receiving end of any punches at that moment. He made it back to his corner before slumping to the floor. It seemed benn's shots in the rounds prior were having an effect. . Sadly McClellan was left brain damaged and never fought again. Today he is almost blind , 80 percent deaf and walks with a cane. . . π¨PLEASE LIKE AND FOLLOW US AT ππ@holygrailboxing πππ¨ . . #geraldmcclellan #nigelbenn #julianjackson #herolgraham #mikemccallum #terrynorris #royjonesjr #jamestoney #floydmayweather #errolspencejr #marvinhagler #sugarrayleonard #tommyhearns #keiththurman #adrienbroner #ggg #canelo #lomachenko #rigondeaux #erislandylara #chriseubanksr #miguelcotto #miketyson #boxing #boxinghistory #mosleyboxing https://www.instagram.com/p/BvzISM1g6G6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=cfmo2hbaz4a6
