benn n eubank - who was the best

[OptimusWolf]

Mate there's absolutely no "problem" with your opinion - of course not! What the guys were referring to was your response to Shanus that because Benn lost to the aforementioned guys he couldn't beat them. You equated didn't to couldn't.

It's just imprecision fella, nothing serious but it matters in a proper discussion.

I think the eubank fights highlights some of Benn's problems, defensively i wasnt too hot on him, he punches very and hard and was quick, but i think he was rather fortunate at times against Mc Cellenan and probably would have lost that fight on another night, he used to steam in a bit too much for my liking too, which left him susceptible to counters.

I think he was pure class, i dont think he could have beaten anyone, i think Matches with toney and jones would have been bad style match-ups he would have lost.

I dont see the contraversy in this point.

How good was Eubank's chin??

[FUMIN 88]

i think there both great altho my favourit is benn. but eubank probly had the edge. btw i just whatched the calzaghe vs eubank fight on youtube was that eubanks last ever fight he looked poor

[hugh grant]

There werent that much difference between them i think. But i think Benn at the later stage of his career dissapointed a bit more.
In the first fight if Benns eye didnt close up who knows what would have happened?

[Zerwas1]

it was in the 10th round



benn was good enough to knock eubank down in benn - eubank 1, he just couldn't get rid of him

Damn and I thought it was the 9th

[satori555]

do british people think benn and eubank are hagler and leonard or something i dont understand these guys weren't very good. If they had participated in fighting the rest of the boxing world they would have been somewhere in the middle of the pack

[hemichromis]

Nigel Benn, he could beat any opponent, he was just too inconsistent.

except a slick boxer with a great chin. i do think he could have beaten watson but eubank was just so perfect in his prime

eubank has to be in the top ten p4p of all time IMHO


i prefer been though he never had a boring fight!

[Konstantin]

Im more of a fan of Eubank so I have to go with him.
