Saddo Poll - Benn or Eubanks

Well obviously nobody with less than an anvil for a chin(which Eubanks clearly had) can afford to do that, doesn't make them any less fearless to me though. Eubank had a bunch of crap fights where he scraped by against far lesser fighters by just not throwing enough, Benn fought out of his skin every time and was a maniac, you can't really split them on courage imo. How would you know whether Eubank cares or not what people think of him? In general most everyone does, and I don't buy that Eubank was even truly eccentric as much as a pseudo-intellectual weirdo. Look at him in the corner of his sons fights now for christs sake, you're honestly telling me that's not a man who wants attention?

Hate polls like these because I don't want to pick one over the other. Went with Benn in the end due to his blow out of Barkley (vicious!!!), and unbelievably beautiful but tragic war with G-Man (one of my favorite fighters ever). Eubanks equally courageous and tragic come from behind win over Watson and beat down of Benn at 160 is very hard to overlook though. Either way, it was them together that made them so special to me. Love the contrast of legitimately mean/aggressive Benn and the eccentric and at times brilliant stylist Eubanks. God I miss the 90s!!!!
