    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.
    hahaha.

        collins had a ****** chin, tony thornton was a powerful puncher in the 80s but broke his right hand on collins head (!) & never hit hard again after that, reggie johnson dropped james toney but collins took everthing he had, mike mccallums left hook ko'd don curry but collins just walked right through it. damn collins was as hard as nails

          I always thought Collins was like a lump of granite- He never looked like losing to Benn IMO. He just seemed indestructable at that time

            Predicting Mayweather and Hatton was easy - every other boxing expert did the same.

            Benn admitted Roy Jones wud outclass him (interview while benn was boxing - he says after the mclellan fight that he cudnt beat RJJ)....so its pretty easy to call out Roy Jones once ur retired and promised u wont come out of retirement.

            Benn also hated naz and so was always gonna bad mouth him

            If u hear benn now - u can barely understand wat he says...his lisp and general speech has deteriorated like how holyfield's has also. I guess its wat happens after u been in as many wars as those guys....

              I dont think his speech is that bad at all. He has always had a lisp, and i remember after the McClellan fight i thought he looked a liitle worse in an interview, but i saw him on a programme a while ago, and hes the same now as he was years ago.

              And i dont think he was calling out Roy Jones, he said he would fight him if his family let him. He always wanted to fight Jones eventhough he knew he would lose.

                Absolute Bull**** LOL. Just completely false and made-up.

                Benn was calling out Jones at every opportunity because he wanted to see if Jones was as good as everybody was making out.

                And we've all seen your Benn-hating, Jones-hugging and Naz-hugging on this site time and again.
