Now, I'm not saying that McGirt was as good of a fighter as Chavez, because he wasn't, but he did give Whitaker a tough fight.

Good call. Been a while but I scored that on 115-114 for Mcgirt.Maybe the excessive clowning swayed me Lol.Consider how close it was and Buddy was also fighting with a torn up Rotator cuff ??

Would have absolutely loved it if RJJ and Gerald McClellan fought each other, it would have been a great fight, i reckon McClellan would have KOd RJJ within 6 rounds!

Such a shame what happened to him though

Yea but McGirt had no injuries in the rematch and Whitaker won the rematch pretty handily.

Would have loved it.

And to the person who said Trinidad Quartey, that fight is actually possible

I think Toney would have gave Benn a bit of a boxing lesson IMO, as for Eubank vs Toney i don't see that being a good fight really and truthfully. I see Toney winning a tough but clear cut UD, in a fight that doesn't really get going.

Depends on which Toney turns up if it was the one that faced Tiberia or Jones then he looses to the Eubanks version that beat Watson.
