    Which Brit out of Watson, Eubank & Benn had the best chance of upsetting the top American boys like Nunn, Toney & RJJ?

    Would the Brits have been competitive or not?

    Benn/Toney would have been epic from the build-up to the fight, IMHO. It's one of those fights that couldn't help but be a classic.

    I'd have loved to have seen Eubank/Barkley, too.

    I'm a Benn fan...but I think Eubank would have had the best shot at pulling an upset on Nunn or Toney...but with that said , you would have to favor Toney and Nunn in those fights...and Eubank vs RJJ would have been a weird, lackluster fight with both respecting each too much IMO.
    Yes Benn v Toney would have been a tear up!!!
