Not to mention Watson won the first fight against Eubank (Yes I know the records books show Eubank got the UD but Eubank got a few dodgy decisons back then) and, watson, well, beat the crap out of Eubank for 11 rounds in the second fight but of course what happened, sadly happened.
Everytime Herol Graham stepped to the highest level, his style was exposed. Prince Naz had a similar style but his power covered up a lot of cracks and even when he stepped up to the very highest level, he too was exposed. Unlike Naz, Graham did not a KO power, to get him out of trouble, nor did he have a style that would go down well with judges and fans, which is maybe why he never got into the Eubank, Benn, Watson and later Collins mix.
But for me - Watson is the clear winner.
