Would a prime Benitez have beat a prime Griffith era for era?

I actually learn a lot from reading hypothetical match up threads ...you might notice a flaw in a particular fighter that I don’t ....or maybe you peak my interest in a fighter

 

he doesn't make sense. why not ask 'benitez vs griffith, who you got?'

 

its not matter of fact because its not real

 

50/50

 

One of your finest

 

I'm pretty sure even the most average of punters will "get it".

 

Excellent point. We all have our favorites, or favorite styles/ Abilities ( Personally, mine are fighters that are super fast boxer-puncher types, those fighters influence my thinking in hypothetical match ups, prime example of how wrong that can be is Duran vs Leonard #1 where I was blind to other styles/Abilities. ) a web site like this with hypothetical match ups gives one a different perspective, a point of view that one may not have thought of.
And, if one is reasonable, and actually know the sport ( Some on here really don't) may actually learn or, see something you may already know but from a different knowledgeable fans view, and opinion.
Hypothetical match ups can help remove the blinders of our own bias if one is open to others insights. Only the dead can't learn .

 

And immeasureably stronger than Benitez.

 

not just great punching power, but also great body strength, which probably made him so effective in the clinches

 

Griffith was one of the best to lace them up someone I tend to say “would find a way” when stuck this is one of those cases.

 

A born athlete with a good work ethic, a gentle persona and a charitable heart his only crime was taking the wrong sex to bed a pity if he were alive today he would have been a far more revered icon.

Unfortunately he is largely forgotten by even fans of the sport and has a sad past full of grey and black spots of... less then savoury moments a product of the times.

A personal hero of mine.

 

mine too
