Who would win these mythical match ups, and why ? Based on their primes. Derek Chisora v Gary Mason Frank Bruno v David Haye Nigel Benn v Carl Froch (168) Joe Calzaghe v John Conteh (175) Josh Taylor v Amir Khan (140)
Chisora beats Mason, Haye would be too quick for Bruno, Calzaghe beats Conteh, Taylor might out-work Khan in a barn-burner, Benn might have too much offensive skill than Froch I don`t think Froch could have beaten G-man, all close fights though.
Thank god someone else picked Conteh.Feel like most folk on here are a lot younger than me and don`t appreciate how good John was in his prime
Derek Chisora v Gary Mason - Derek Chisora Frank Bruno v David Haye - Frank Bruno Nigel Benn v Carl Froch - Nigel Benn Joe Calzaghe v John Conteh - John Conteh Josh Taylor v Amir Khan - Amir Khan
My old man is very knowledgeable about boxing. I asked him and he said Conteh would have beat Calzaghe. He said a prime Conteh was the best British fighter he has ever seen. Just that his prime was short lived because of his lifestyle.
Your dad knows what he is talking about. For me not the best ever British boxer but certainly top 10. Career wise Calzaghe rates higher but head to head Conteh all day long
