    Both could have won the Super-Six but wouldn't have been favourites...

    Benn would give them all nightmares. If I'm being honest, haven't seen hardly any watsons fights so I couldn't really say

    Eubank v Kessler would of been great for about six rounds.

    Benn/Dirrell could of been good as well.

    I think they all would be competitive, Benn-Froch would be brutal, Eubank-Dirrell would be a chess match.

    Agreed.

    Would of loved to of seen Benn/Froch though.

    That would of been an all time classic if they were in the same era.

    Watson would do okay. In fact, Eubank would too, even though I think he's inferior to both Benn and Watson overall.

    I think Benn struggles to be honest.

    they'd probably be ok as long as Collins wasn't there!

    benn and eubank would of delt with them all but watson would of been a superstar!! sooo under rated and forgotten about. benn vs froch, eubank vs ward, watson vs kessler. they were just a different breed of fighter bak then total war machines.

    Hard to tell. I don't think they were as good as some believe, especially Eubank who was awful a lot of the time. Watson, who knows. He was a middleweight, not a SMW. No way would Benn beat Froch, just my view. Froch would beat Collins also.
