    Benn could often be outhustled (Eubank twice, Collins twice, Malinga twice, Galvano rematch, come to mind), or if he set the pace and tried to maintain it he gassed and/or got clipped (Miller, Logan, Watson). It wasn't him to let shots go without winding them up.

      If James Toney can't take out Nigel Benn within 6 rounds? He will find himself in immense trouble! James Toney was a immense fighter but his stamina was not the best, Benn would bring a chaotic intensity into the ring that James Toney has never seen before! (I am going to pick Nigel Benn on points!)...

        Black ameeicans wanted no part of Benn after what he did to Gerald. Toney was no different.

          Toney wouldn't have been fazed by Benn. But he was up at LHW in 95.

            Toney only really beat bums!?! He has the best resume in boxing history!

            Nunn was lb4lb #1, McCallum one of the best ever, Reggie Johnson basically a southpaw Roy Jones back then, Barkley and Sosa 100x harder than any of todays fighters, Littles seen as about as good a talent as Jones and McClellan coming up, and Prince Charles Williams a great fighter! DeWitt, Thornton were hardly slouches! Watch DeWitt against Hearns and Hilton for instance, and Thornton against Sosa.
