Absolute legend and in his prime was a machine! [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2l5zppPYpA&feature=related[/ame] And a prime Nigel Benn around today, both would clean up!
Benn and Eubank would rip all of the super six apart. The middleweight divsion is just a Joke , Benn wouldnt need anymore than six rounds against any of the champions. 3 against Pavlik.
i never really liked eubank at the time, it really pissed me off when he took benn's title from him that night at the nec, birmingham. but over the years ive come to really respect eubank, as both a fighter and a man. i love the quotes and sayings he comes out with.
in one 18month period he defended his world title EIGHT times including fights with nigel benn,graciano rochigiani,henry wharton and steve collins.there were some easier defences in there aswell,but still...

Eubank should've lost Rocchigiani fight. He should've lost Benn rematch. He gave many poor performances. He's just overrated.
Got me into boxing as a kid, my first favourite fighter, used to hate Benn because i liked Eubank lol Now respect Benn bigtime too.
Kelly Pavlik and Sergio Martinez would completely OWN Eubank, especially Martinez, who I'd give Eubank a 5% chance of beating. Benn stands a good chance against Pavlik, but his power at 168 is overrated and it's about 50/50 with Pavlik and Martinez at that weight while he loses to both at 160.
