    Kalambay far to clever and skilled for Benn. Sumbu would beat Eubank Sr. as well.

    Kalambay is bigger, more skilled, better feet, better all round he wins on points possibly gets a stoppage
    I think Mugabi fought in same day weigh ins so he would come in what he weighed in at and he wasn’t even a natural middleweight for the same day weigh in era, whereas Kalambay fought in before day weigh ins and he was a natural middleweight and would come in at like 170lbs, I see only one way this fight goes
