Both had a relentless aggressive style, so head to head who wins? Early 1900 s rules and gloves. 3 kd rule applies.
Benn had a better punching technique and looked more muscular he was also more proven against bigger fighters, G-man would have knocked Ketchel out at 160 or 168.
He always answers a question with his own question. I also dont know what "more muscular" has to do with it. It's not a bodybuilding comp but that seems to be another fascination in many of Mark's posts. He still seems to think that makes a difference
There'd be a big weight disadvantage for Ketchel. I doubt Benn could make 158Ib on the day, let alone 154Ib as Ketchel did. 1900's rules would put Ketchel at a big advantage though. I think a lot would depend on the terms they agreed on.
I don`t think Ketchel was big or strong enough to go toe to toe with Benn who took G-man`s best shots.
In this clip, Ketchel is the boxer who decided to put on his trunks before entering the ring and not just fight wearing his cup. (LOL) This content is protected
