    Good fighters have wars too.

      So intelligent to lose the American Revolutionary War ?

      So intelligent to need help in WWI, WII and Korea war from Americans ??

        There’s a difference between being a good boxer and fun/great to watch and being a great boxer. Benn was the former. And that’s my point.
        I guess living in the UK i see him as a great, but thats based on being a great British fighter, and a guy i had great memories of growing up. But in the wider scheme of things i dont suppose id have him up there with say Hagler or Sugar Ray. So yeah, i take your point.

          Yeah, like i say, it depends how you look at it. I would say he was a great British fighter being from the UK myself. Not a great like Duran, Hagler ect. But i would say Eubank 1 and the Mclellan fights were certainly great fights.

                You mean the British civil war in America? Both sides were British.

                  Since when has intelligence been measured by warfare? A very strange idea (and it kind of makes my point).

                    Art of War
                    Rules of engagement
                    Military tactics

                    Even in the military you can’t be an commission officer with out an college degree.

                    I am in the military for Americans. There’s no dummies pass E-4 in the army.

                    You need smart people in war. Smart people win wars. No wounded why you needed our help.

                      We needed someone to make up the numbers.

                      If the US military wasn't a joke, they wouldn't have killed more British troops than the Iraqi's did during the fist Gulf war.

                      You've got numbers and good equipment, but British army is far better trained and our special forces run rings around yours (as recently admitted during exercises).
