Nigel Benn vs. Ronald Wright at MW

Does the Dark Destroyer smash through Winky's guard or is Winky too polished to lose?

 

A left-handed, weird style Wright can drive any opponent crazy.

If Winky isn't intimidated, then he frustrate Benn all night long.

 

As much as i love Nigel Benn.... he gets outboxed here

 

Yes.

 

Benny KO'S Ron.

 

I think Wright is a bad opponent for Benn.He is just too good defence wise.Id like to say Nige stops him but I cant,Wright by decision.

 

Wright is a handfull for anyone between 154 and 160. Tight defence, southpaw, great jab, very good workrate. With this combination he may beat quite a few better fighters than him simply by outworking them. Like Benn.

 

I think Benn would have a shot here. If Vargas could fight him close Benn should be able to outwork him with pressure.

 

Have you seen the Vargas fight? While Wright was already prime he didn´t use the style that would make him as good as he was.

 

Yes i saw it live. I thought Wright won the fight actually, but it was close because of pressure. Vargas was in poor shape, but I think a fighter like Benn who is awkward and physically strong can offset a lot of his jab and distance fighting.

 

I´m not argueing that Benn would be competative or even beat Wright. I´m argueing using the Vargas fight as an argument.

 

Im not really using it as an example, only that Wright would struggle with a big physical fighter. Vargas wasnt that great, but his size had something to do with giving Wright some problems more than a style change in my opinion.

 

Taylor would be a better example then, Wright won but struggled. and Taylor was no Benn. Good point.

 

See Michael Watson and Felix Trinidad fights. You can't smash through Winky Wrights guard you must use surgical precision to find away down the pipe.

 

Both one dimensional approaches. Benn could be awkward.
