    Out of Chris Eubank and Nigel Benn, which fighter would do a better job in the current Super Middleweight division?

    Eubank...

    He was smarter, and wouldn't get rushed into an overseas fight with the cards stacked against him and take undeserved losses on his resume.

    I would have liked the Benn fights better though. :bbb

    Nigel Benn

    would have knocked the Slick out of Andre Ward

    I am not even joking

    Ward will be dead

    he will be left on the ground twitching like a tweety bird

    Benn would punch holes through Chavez Jr


    Even Bad Chad have to dodge this guy

    Nigel Benn was a god damn

    ****ing

    Eubank was better rounded, but Benn has bigger power. With Nigel especially when he was younger, you didn't know if he would win by knockout or if he would get knocked out. Barkley was stopped by Benn, but that could have easily turned into a knockout win in round one for Barkley.

    Ward hasn't really been tested yet.

    Eubank.

    Benn is my favorite British fighter of all time, But Eubank would of been too slick for these cats today.
