    Here's one for the purists. Who wins this chessmatch of defensive whizzkids?

    At 154lbs.


    I cast my vote for Benitez by competitive but clear decision. Herol could do most,if not all,that Wilfred could do but the latter just did it that bit better.

    Benitez by decision, the PuertoRican was simply too skill for the good Graham. The best Benitez was not the super welterweight in my opinion but in that category he was still strong and beat Hope and Duran.

    Not seen this one before, Stevie.
    Both had a style to give their opposition fits.
    But Graham as good as he was, I think Benitez had more world-class savy about him.
    For me Graham loses a top name fight again but isn't discraced.
