Toney would light Ben up. Weird pick, but I think Nunn could’ve made the adjustments to decision Toney.
And I felt he looked a bit better in the fights after Toney by sitting down on shots more and adding hooks to the body to his game - the very awkward dangerman livewires Ashley, Cordoba and Sosa were beat the crap out of and he was flurrying flashier than ever against Yonker. He looked better at the weight above than he did against Starling and Curry
strange I thought it was a draw? Pretty sure my card was 114-114 and the judges saw it 115-113 each way and the 3rd 114-114
**** it watched Eubank Benn Rematch on silent and..... (Eubank 8/13 betting fave) R1-Benn R2-Eubank R3-Benn R4-Benn R5-Benn R6-Benn (9-9) R7-Eubank R8-Eubank R9-Benn R10-Eubank R11-Even R12-Benn 115-113 Benn Eubanks timing is off outside, but he hurts Benn inside enough in the sixth to slow him down. Benn is pinned on the ropes in the 5th, 6th and 11th but slipping and sliding enough to evade Eubanks flurries
That would be much better, and could even see a Eubank-Benn final with Benn possibly winning if Eubanks timing is off and Benn's head and body movement is on
Strangely, with commentary, I always remembered giving Eubank five of the first six and Benn five of the last six. But scoring it just now on mute I see it like you see scored in quote

There were some close swing rounds but wow that is a huge disparity
Score it on silent. I just scored Eubank-Watson I on mute and get a TOTALLY different scorecard - I always recall scoring the first five rounds to Eubank clearly and most of the rest to Watson with the 10th being Watson's biggest round and the 11th a Eubank round. It is now very different! June 91 1-Watson 2-Eubank 3-Watson 4-Watson 5-Eubank 6-Watson 7-Eubank 8-Eubank 9-Eubank 10-Eubank 11-Watson 12-Eubank 115-113 Eubank Muting a fight seems to force you to watch it with greater focus
I also had Mike Watson ahead of McCallum 3-2-1 after six on mute, McCallum seems to be taking over now though as I'm watching it. Brutal fight, both faces marked and swelling.

SMW Nunn is being overrated. He's lucky that Lightning Little and Fabulous Frankie Liles weren't included in the brackets.
