    when benn went thru the ropes he was givin a slow count to buy him time, that ref was obviously bias towards Benn.

    Benn got through that on sheer will power. He was battered from pillar to post in the first round, but he was fresh, so his powers of recovery got him through that round, then he just got stronger and stronger as the fight went on. It was one of the most determined performances that I have ever seen.

    The losses to Watson and Eubank were in the main down to conditioning and tactics. Benn had this bad, but very entertaining habit of trying to take his opponents head off with every punch. This had severe consequences for his punch resistance in the later rounds.

    McClellan destroys all 3 and I don't know why Sturm is even mentioned...McClellan/Pavlik would be like Hagler/Hearns and will end just as early the way Pavlik fights...Abraham lasts longer but the way he fights tells me a bigger puncher with a chin destroys him, and that's what McClellan is...and that turtle shell defense will get AA hammered...
     

  4. McClellan would have also KOd Calzaghe, Kessler, & Ottke.
