Well, if these guys were moving up to 175 then he'd have a good chance to beat all of them. With Calzaghe being the pick em fight.
hmmm he would have the size advantage over all of them. I think ill get the Calzaghe option out of the way, the reason he beats DM is the same reason joe beats most guys, too quick, too slick and too awkward. Calzaghe wide UD. DM - Eubank would be dull as ****, and even though Chris didnt have a workrate he had a nack of keeping distance and taking breathers, this will be increased at 175, I think he has the ability to nick a SD but it would be mighty close. DM - Collins is 50-50 imo, he was active had a okay punch at 168, that might not mean as much at 175, I think DM, edges a decision against him. DM - Benn, i dont fancy benns chances, his power although immens was not what it was at 168 as it was at 160, at 175 it would be diluted further. he also could be hit and hurt and a big punching light heavy would stop him imo. I think after 10 good compeitive round DM stops him.
I see DM winning a clearcut UD over Collins, who was basically DM lite, without the jab, in the second half of his career. Benn would have been KOed by DM after a competetive back-and-forth affair. Neither guy was ever one to avoid a good slugfest. DM vs Eubank would have been a war of attrition between Eubanks mobility and skills versus DM's workrate and body punching. I think DM gets to Chris' body enough to slow him down (even more than Eubank normally slowed down) and win on points. DM vs Calzaghe is a tough fight to call, I would pick DM as he packed significantly more power than Joe, had a lethal left hook that was great against southpaws, and was pretty much the only Lightheavyweight in recent history who was Calzaghe's equal when it comes to stamina.
