    There is so little to choose between these two. Joe lost some tough bouts before he was at his physical peak and Benny had some off days when he was at his. Joe was the better puncher, Benny the better mover, both were precision with their combo's, Joe may have had abit more of a solid chin, both had great stamina and their speed was about equal. Head to head in three bouts you could have a draw and two splits in eithers favor. Joe by the thinnest of hairs.
