Prime Nigel Benn vs Prime Joe Calzaghe

[brocktonblockbust]

Seriously boys, do you see Calzaghe able to deal with this smothering pressuring style and the good chin that Benn had as well?

problem is Brock , Benn wasn't a SMW in his prime , he was a better Middle I think , but he has a punchers chance for sure.

[Spicoli]

Benn by homicide

Calzaghe would school him properly.. Benn was a British version of Iran Barkley

[SugarBoxing]

Love Benn, but Calzaghe would school him

[Scott22]

Joe Calzaghe two out of three to win the trilogy.

[ryanman]

Calzaghe would make it look easy from round 6 onwards.

[Dia bando]

Benn would give his ALL,! but would be out boxed and Joe would have stopped him in about
8 rounds, Benn was a fantastic fighter, but Joe was better one of the best fighters we ever
had, by the way he would have spanked Carl the COCK Froch as well simple.

[Syntax Error]

If Sugar Boy Malinga can beat Benn TWICE (yes, he was robbed the first time), then Calzaghe schools him.

Calzaghe W12 Benn unanimously.

Joe wins due to his speed n work rate, but it's a tough fight for him. I think Prime Eubank would've been a more interesting fight. Joe was kinda chinny. Chris wasn't nearly as active, but was clever, set effective traps, n could stop a guy with one shot. Prime Toney vs Joe is interesting also but I lean towards Joe out hustling him while never hurting him.

[Master]

Benn was at his very best against the G Man at supermiddle as he was experienced fighter and that version would have give Joe problems. However Cazaghe could adjust his game and that would be the difference, he was a level above Nigel but I could see the fight go to points. Both too good to be stopped by one another.

I think their fight(Benn-Barkley) might suggest he was a bit more dangerous for a while. I'd pick Calzaghe but he could've gotten caught and put away as well.

you cannot compare Barkley with Calzaghe skillwise, Barkley was just a slow slugger with power, but not ring thinking.

You cannot read. I was saying Benn had a chance against Calzaghe and that he was better than Barkley.

The only fighter in recent history that could have beaten Joe Calzaghe at Middle or Super Middle was Roy Jones in Jones's prime.

Roy Jones before he made Light Heavyweight was the man and always will be the man. No one compares aside form Ray Robinson, who I feel Roy would school if they ever fought in their primes.

To me at Middleweight to Super Middleweight:
1. Roy Jones
2. Ray Robinson
3. Marvin Hagler
4. Carlos Monzon
5. Joe Calzaghe
