    Marvin Hagler vs Nigel Benn

    At middleweight this would be a war while it lasted.

    Benn woudnt back down but Hagler would be too skilled and would ko him in the 5th round imo.

      Massive fan of Benn, but Hagler would break him down. Hagler wasnt just super tough, he was also a great technician. Way too much for Benn in every department.

                    Love Benn and loved his KO of Hagler's brother, iron-chinned Robbie Sims. However, Sims fought Benn orthodox, not southpaw. And Benn struggled with the stance of the one southpaw he fought, Nardiello - punches all out of distance etc. You don't want to struggle to find range against a hurt-you-when-you-fall-short killer like (southpaw) Hagler when you yourself are an impact fighter who relies on punch power and needs to find range early.... the titanium-jawed Marvin would be the sensible bet after a spirited Benn effort

                    Potential WAR
