The bell saved him from going down again as Benefield came wading in. In the second, Benefield, using his right to punish Vincent, and his left to keep him straightened up, poured hook after hook, each if which landed flush on the head and jaw, sending the Barkedale fighter to the canvas at least half a dozen times.
