Nigel Benn vs James Toney super middleweight 1993/94?

Who would of won a fight between Benn and Toney back at there best. If Benn beat Eubank in there second fight (in which he did in my eyes) he could of ended up against toney after nunn. They had abit of a altercation on benn vs eubank better enemies show with jonathan ross. Toney was in america via satalite and was just so disrespectful to benn and eubank. I think many ppl would think toney would of beat him but the way benn was the big underdog against mccleallan and the heart that he showed to come back to beat him in style was superb. I would go for Benn on points would of been great to shut toney up.

Toney UD, Benn's power would be almost useless as Toney has a great chin/defense. Would be a awesome fight though.

Check out the video.Eubank was more calm and didn't even bother to talk back to him besides calling him ignorant.Benn seemed to be more flustered and wanted to exchange words in the argument. Intresting hadnt seen that before Karma for posting it! Benn and Toney are 2 of My All Time favourites but theres nothing surer Benn gets beat up bad here Toney had the Defence to make Nige miss and the chin to take it if he did connect plus the better skills and a good pop of his own at that weight. Eubank would have been a tougher fight for Toney but i got JT UD!

Toney would have won but Benn would have died trying LOL But i would rather watch Benn fights than Toneys ! Benn had a never say die style that was so compelling to watch as a fan! I went to see him fight Mclellan with my old man,its one of 3 fights i have ever bought a ring side ticket for !,I was so sure Benn would lose ,i even bet my dad £50 Benn would be beat with in 4 rounds ! What a dear fucking night that was!:grumble:

Toney would of schooled Benn im afraid the guy made a career out of laying on the ropes soaking up preasure then taking advantage when his man was tired whilst counter punching effectively in the process Prince Charles Williams,Barkley ,Jirov

Toney Decision. He was just too good. I think Eubank could have given Toney a tougher fight then Benn. It's just a shame none of these fights materialised.

[yeah toney far too slick and tough for benn toney by UD benn wouldnt be able to hit him and even if he did toney has a crazily good chin so he wouldnt be able to KO him Everybody said that about mcclellan and Benn took him out. Toney got his ass handed to him by roy jones jnr and roy jones jnr rejected fights of benn and collins. So thats saying that benn and collins were dangerous.

I think Eubank would have a better chance becuase he didn't seem phased by Toneys trash talk.Benn really was pissed when Toney started to run his mouth.James would of gotten into his head and played with his emotions. Your wrong it was the opposite Eubank was really upset on that show that toney was talking about his mother and was the one that was extremly pissed of at toney. Benn was more cooler and even said that he thought toney was a good fighter.

Styles make fights, Toney's counterpunching and inside game would be too much for Benn IMO. And Toney has probably one of the best chins in the past 20 years so I don't think Benn would be able to end it with 1 punch.
