    Minter is my man, but unfortunately Benvenuti would best him pretty decisively.

    I did a data boxing, dice version of this fight thinking benvenuti would win a WU12. Nino got cut early but it did not slow him down. Winning by a large amount he was bleeding again in the 9th and Minter's pressing took it's toll staggering Nino the tenth. With either one on the verge of going down Minter struck first early in the 12th. Benvenuti went down and although he got up the fight was stopped. Had Nino survived he would have won a solid unanimous nod.
