Nigel Benn vs. today's 168 lbers

[Hulk]

Was watching Benn vs. Eubank II the other night, can't see how anyone could think Eubank won that one really, but anyway got thinking what Benn would do against today's 168 lb class.

I think he could beat anyone out there right now with Calzaghe being retired.

Kessler, Bute, and Andrade would give him the hardest fights I think.

He'd KO Miranda, Bika, and possibly Ward and Dirrell if he could catch em.

What do you guys think?

Have to agree on the Eubanks rematch...'draw' my azz .Can you picture a Andrade/Benn fight,brutal.Andrade has a solid beard but frontal mostly,Benns sharp hooks & experience could catch up to him.Bute is slippery as shite,actually good hands but I think Benn tracks him down for a earlier version of his 12th round with Andrade.Ward showed lots of maturity with Miranda but is still a bit green at the highest levels.

Kessler might just turn into a war,good chance.Have only seen him about 4 times but is seems strong,straight puncher.He didn't have much of a plan b for Calzaghes lawn mower style.Good one.

Andrade vs. Benn or Bika vs. Benn would be the ideal match ups. They'd be classic "tear ups" as Benn would call em.

Bute is a very good boxer. I'd love to see if Benn could get him. I think he would.

Kessler is the only one I see really beating Benn. Even then I give Benn more than a 50/50 shot of rocking him and gettin the TKO or outworking him.

I haven't seen Kessler since he fought Calzaghe though.

I'm surprised with so many Nigel Benn fans on this forum nobody cares to comment on this.

You guys are making me a saaaaaaaaaaaad panda.

I kind of think Kessler would be wrong for Been. Good footwork, can keep distance, jab and right hand.

He'd eat Miranda's children. Probably KO Bute late. Too good for Bika or Andrade but they wouldn't go anywhere, especially Andrade.

Kessler is the only one I could really see beating Benn.

Andrade would be getting hit harder than ever before, but he could most likely take it.

That'd be a great fight.
