I remember in 96 when boxing illustrated did a magazine on Mike Tyson, with pictures of him at his mansion with his white tigers, they asked him if he would ever fight butterbean among other things, they also asked what he thought of Roy Jones. They said that Jones complains he has no real challengers to which Mike answered "thats just wrong, he has Nigel Benn"

Bearing in mind this was just after Benns fight with McClellen, who was a bigger fight back then for Jones than Benn ?
That fight crippled Mcclellan and ruined Benn... Jones would of Punished Benn and humiliated him..... Pre Mcclellan great fight, Post McClellan one sided embarrasing whitewash for Jones
Thats knowing what Benn fought like afterwards, directly after the fight Jones would have shiit himself at the thought of facing that animal that McClellans bombs couldnt stop and Benn had just become an even bigger name, the fight would have been huge
Highly doubt that when you look at what a Phenom Jones was at that time.. I mean Benn wasnt gonna match Jones in anything except maybe power.... Jones would have handled Benn quite easily
