    Jackson was a puncher just like Gerlad McClelland and he was beaten twice by the G man in a punchout so I don't see how Jackson in the place of McClelland would play out differently. Benn had a very good defense on the attack, bobbing and weaving, ducking low and swinging hard from different angles.

    Other than the crippling power, McClellan and Jackson weren't that similar in style or attributes. McClellan was huge for the weight, overwhelmingly powerful, an excellent chin, but questionable stamina and no plan B. Jacksom was smaller, quicker and a better boxer, but had a suspect chin himself. However, he showed no obvious stamina issues, and was a one punch threat for as long as he was in the fight.

    The keys to victory for Benn against Jackson aren't the same as against McClellan, so concluding that Benn would beat Jackson the same way he beat McClellan doesn't make sense.

    Same here man, you don't get any more KTFO than that :shock:

    It's not like Jackson was doing that to nobodies either, Drayton was a durable guy. He iced world champs like that too.
