    it seems clear to me that he's got his tongue firmly in his cheek. He's still one of my favourite boxers; as Harry Carpenter put it, president of the Who Needs Him? club.

    Who did better against Mike McCallum? Grahm (who you call overrated) or Watson (who you call underrated) Graham that's who. Watson would've also lost to Kalambay far more easily.

    Benn was all over the place at tyat time, he improved vastly when he went up to 168, Kalambay was far more skilled than Benn was at 160, Benn even admitted he wasn`t ready for Nunn in 1989 just before Watson beat him.

    Sibbo was the one who nicknamed Herol "Limbo Dancer" I was a fan of both men. They would have given us a good fight but I can only see Graham winning. Too much overall skill although Tony's left hook would cause problems.

    Kalambay was far more skilled than Benn period.

    Kalambay with Benn's power.... Now that's a scary prospect.

    Personally I would take Watson, Benn, Eubank and Nunn over Graham anytime.

    Absolutely true. But he obviously didn't have the game ender Benn had.
