    Benn-Eubank-Toney-Jones-Calzaghe who ya got?

    Benn:

    L Eubank

    L Toney TKO mid-late (Toney's short hooks and short uppercuts all wrong for Benn, either beating him to the punch or countering him on the inside with)

    L Jones TKO early (Jones got the power, speed and reflex to take him out in three rounds or less without being hit by Benn's best)

    L Calzaghe TKO early-mid (Calzaghe's hands are too sharp and his heart too big, finds Benn's dodgy jaw)

    Eubank:

    W Benn

    W Toney UD (Toney can't get close enough often enough without eating heavy jabs or falling short due to Eubank's sways)

    L Jones UD (Jones would simply out-work him and win the last eight rounds, though be made to look bad early doors)

    L Calzaghe UD (Calzaghe would be too busy for him)

    Toney:

    W Benn

    L Eubank

    L Jones UD (I think Jones would of always beaten him, but an in-shape Toney would make life harder for him)

    W Calzaghe UD (very close call, but Toney would constantly draw him and counter him up and down with both hands, like a matador)

    Jones:

    W Benn

    W Eubank

    W Toney

    W Calzaghe TKO (Calzaghe is too square-on and Jones was a massive puncher)


    I do think a young Benn takes Jones (six rounds with Benn is too many rounds for Jones to escape), but Jones wasn't about then. And I do think a young Eubank takes Jones because Jones wouldn't have the technical know-how to deal with his movement (he moved better than any boxer I've ever seen), but again Jones wasn't about then.

      ...Anything 'Bank can do, Jones can do better.
      Jones can do anything better than 'Bank.

        I respect your opinion....but...

        Either you're on drugs, or you're 14 and don't know **** all about boxing. Outside this, you're just posting on here for a laugh. That last paragraph was nothing more than a joke.

        You're obviously being hypothetical (do you know what that means?) otherwise you wouldn't have posted that. But having said that, your lines are miles out.

        Benn, Eubank to beat Jones. Holy Moses. Sorta like asking Roberto Duran to beat Muhammed Ali.

        Give us all a break.

            Good thing you waited until the end of the post to ruin your credibility.
            The rest of the stuff you had to say probably wouldn't have gotten read if you put that in the beginning.

                Yeah, I get the point.
                Livingstone 'Bank "disciple of Tupac" and Nigelito would've stood no chance against Roy Jones Jr.

                    Props, dude.

                    I agree mostly, but not on the Calzaghie - Benn front. Remember the McClellan fight, and how much Benn battled? I reckon the punch power and the guts inside Benn would have got topside of Joe.

                    Remember Joe beat Eubank when Eubank was on the slide, as an afterthought.
