Are Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank Hall Of Fame Worthy?

Benn 100%

eubank 65%

 

Anyone that thinks either of these 2 don't belong in the HOF DKSAB :deal

 

Benn>>>>De la Hoya turbonoob

Easy

 

He never beat Eubank atsch

Beating Barkley and Mclellan doesn't get you into the HOF.

 

:rofl :rofl

 

Naive at best, and stupid at worst. Where people are born has everything to do with how the rest of the world sees them.

Now lets see, of the so called " civilised " world who is despised more than America?

 

He defended against him twice and looked to have beaten/avenged him.

Beating Barkley and McClellan alone may not. But beating Barkley in one round and climbing back into the ring to beat McClellan, was a bit special.

 

Sure it was. But so was Bowe beating Holyfield twice. Bowe ain't getting into no hall.

 

Not quite as special, because Riddick didn't take him in a round or be punched through the ropes and come back to win.

 

FW wasn't in the picture at the time. It was Bob Arum who lined up the WBO title for Benn.

 

But Holyfield was a higher quality HW so it evens out

 

I stand corrected.

Still a papier mache bauble regardless :bart

 

Really? McClellan was in the lb4lb lists at the time. Holyfield wasn't.

McClellan used to hurt Holy in sparring at Kronk, by all accounts.

As for Barkley, for me he beat Hearns, Duran and Nunn in his previous three fights. Holy wasn't fighting fighters of that ilk. Iran was also in the lb4lb lists in '92 - Holy wasn't.

 

One that earned Benn a million dollars against Barkley and a million pounds against Eubank, in the space of a few months!

Lots of paper!

 

McLellan isnt a great win at 168, simple as. He stopped chinny ass jackson but thats about it.

Its a great comeback but not HOF worthy
