Did I mention Benn would tear off Tito's head.
Wow good match up.;D
Think it would be very close,both are hard hitters with chins that are not always 100%.
Think Tito was a more controlled boxer but you could never count Benn out of a fight.
You know what it is a good match up!Quote:

Benn by KO in a Hagler Hearns type brawl most probably.
Agree re the Hagler Hearns comparison. I go for Benn getting hurt by a few bombs and getting mighty pissed off and scoring a KO in 3 or 4 .
Tito was only on the floor about 50 times at welterweight.
Kevin Lueshing decked him for effs sake.
I agree it could resemble Hagler-Hearns although more likely Khan vs Prescott. ;D
Big Nigel Benn fan eh?Quote:

I think you meant got knocked down not KO'd.. then got up and sparked out Tito. ;DQuote:

Benn wouldnt of made the weight anyway and even if he did would of been incredibly weight drained and not half as effective as he is at 12stone
It would of been 2 fighters out of their depth slugging it out
Dewitt and Simms?? You gotta be from England. I was laughing so hard when I saw those names my belly popped through my throught onto the floor. They were more journeymen than fringe contenders here in the USA. As Holmes might say "Robbie Simms can't carry his brother's jockstrap." His brother being Marvin Hagler.Quote:

Loved the Barkley fight - again an excellent win
Eubank (2nd fight) another big win, even if the judges cheated him
McClellan - Nuf said
Benn definitely had his limitations, but he was genuine world class and a match for any of the 90s MWs and SWs (P.S I said 'a match' not that he would beat)
Agreed with Big H Robbie Simms also never got stopped by anyone else.Quote:

Simms beat Duran too didn't he? Or am I thinking of somebody else?Quote:

Yes he did, although I remember he was fortunate to get the decision.Quote:
