A massive Benn fan I think Eubank was the better at the time of their first meeting but Benn by the second. Though head to head i always feared for that one moment when Benn would get reckless and tagged by Eubank.
Think Benn would have fared better against the Jones and Toneys at the time and had the bottle to take on the main men - I don't reckon Eubank would have gone in against Mcclellan. Always remember him saying in an interview re a fight against Jones "if I can't see a way of winning the fight I won't take it"
I knew Benn would lose the first fight - was too confident I thought and at the end of the second I knew Eubank HADN'T WON, I wasn't surprised by the draw I guess.
I think over their careers Benn's wins v Mcclellan, and KO victories over Dewitt and Barkley in USA, slightly edge Eubank's achievements. Eubank did him the first time but the second they were on equal terms.
Could never understand why there was no third fight
(no I don't count Gladiators).
