    nigel benn on sky (predictions! )

    i just dug out a few old tapes from ages ago, nigel benn was in the sky sports studio to analyse hamed/mccullough & hamed/ingle, hamed/ingle card was at the men arena with tommy hearns on the card & big george & chris eubank & manny steward were all there 2 (i was in the crowd but also set my vcr to record it)

    anyway, at the hamed/mccullough benn says felix trinidad is his boy & he thinks trinidad is 2nd to roy jones, & he predicts floyd mayweather is the future king of the ring. he also lays into naz saying "forget about mccullough, if hamed fought any of the top americans he would get anihilated. mayweather, mckinney, guys like that. i reckon junior jones would beat him & that derrick gainer guy", about roy jones benn said that u need 2 find roys chin becos its never been tested & u need 2 find somebody soon before rjj retires- benn said he would come out of retirement & test roys chin if he had'nt promised his wife & kids he would never get in a ring again

    at the hamed/ingle benn says "rich hatton" will be a future star for britain, says trinidad is the best fighter in the world & also lays into naz again saying "he could'nt carry my kitbag. throw him in with the mexicans & he'd be embarassed!", he also says tommy hearns should retire & said eubank should be ashamed of himself if he fought tommy hearns ( there was talk of eubank fightin hearns on a lennox lewis undercard)

    ifind it amazing how benn predicted so much **** that came true. eubank pullin out of a tommy hearns fight out of respect for hearns, naz bein embarassed by a mexican, hatton becomin a star, mayweather becomin p4p king, rjj havin someone find his chin (tarver). i find it quite amazin

            I don't blame Nigel for hating Naz so much after all the **** Naz was saying following the Collins fights. Little bastard, couldn't believe it.

                Naz was all over the British newspapers for months basically just slagging Benn off, it was ridiculous.

                He kept yabbering on about how Benn was supposedly a 'coward' for MONTHS!

                I don't know what was wrong Naz at the time, or if Nigel ****d his mother or what. But Naz claimed Benn faked the ankle injury that forced him to pull out of the first Collins fight, and that he quit in the second Collins fight (he didn't, his corner pulled him out between rounds).

                Naz famously said-
                "I'd never go out like that, you'd have to cut my arms or something."

                  He got his ass whooped by Collins, who at the time was at his best.
                  I've never been a fan of Naz, he's always been over rated, his chin is worse than Judahs.

                    Yeah Benn knows his stuff.

                    The only thing that really wierded me out....was the dialect he used in his prediction for Calzaghe v.s. Lacy:

                    "Joe can take a bit of stick. Jeff can give alot of stick, and I reckon both guys will be taking a bit of stick"

                    Yeah that was pretty odd and I'd like to keep from laughing every time I read that....because it's just funny.
