    You could never write Nigel Benn off, against anybody ever - no matter what.

    Would loved to of seen Benn/Hearns and Benn/Jones Jr.

      You could whenever he was in the ring with Collins.

        Oh, come on. That was even worse than Tyson/McBride.

          Benn vs. Hearns would've been great but I would put my money on Benn. Once Hearns felt any of Benn's power his penis and testicles would evolve into a vagina and ovaries. Benn vs. Roy Jones is a little more tricky, in my opinion. I think the the one-two combo would be money for Benn. If I was in Benn's corner for this fight, I would make sure he didn't throw too many hooks.

            Benn would of knocked Jones out.

            Sure - Jones would of floored him, hurt him, embarassed him... but Benn would of knocked him out.

              Accumulation of punishment or one-shot drop-and-stop?

                One way or another, Jones is getting knocked out. Benn's catching with some nasty ****, if anybody can it's him. Benn laid out his plan for Jones and it made me realise, and then Jones getting KO'd twice made me certain. Nigel said that he'd "just throw everything at him for three or four rounds and hope for the best".

                Most likely a big shot decides the fight.

                  Thinking about that fight just makes me want to bite my tongue off.

                    I read this interview with Benn about five years back, but it was from '95.

                      There was still talk of Jones/Benn after Benn lost to Malinga, Arum was going to put it on in the summer ('96). But I think the Malinga beating was one too many (well, the McClellan one was one too many but this was just the icing on the cake - he looked pathetic against Collins).
