nigel benn on roy jones

[Drago]

i remember that interview, benn was awesome. that would of been a real fight & he & eubank had a good chance of a victory against RJJ in my book!

[HattonTheHammer]

benn would of been tailor made for RJJ if you ask me and would of walked on to far too many quick right hands for me to even consider him having a chance.

But still great to here from nige who is to this day considered an all time great in britain, not surprised to here how humble he is about another fighter either. Even amongst the likes of chris eubank and don king nigel never went down the route of selling himself to be anything other than a london boy fighting his way up!!

[BIG H]

Agree with Taeth. Benn was my favourite fighter, but Jones would've absolutely ruined him!!

I used to think Roy would have slaughtered Benn on the bridle... these days I can confidently predict that Benn would have sparked him. Fact.

benn was great to watch a would give him more of a chance with rjj than eubank for me benn was far better and maybe benn could of been the 1st guy to ko rjj

Jones was untoucable back in the day. He was more invincible looking than Floyd or Shane looked in their primes.

Benn knew the score and he was honest enough to admit it .The Nardiello fight was his first on sky and I dont think the sky bosses liked ihim saying that cuz someone made him take that statement back . In his next fight vs Danny Perez on the Bruno undercard, Benn said I want to be number 1 second to nobody! but in that interview he said he didnt mind being number 2 to roy Jones

Fensters fuct facts.

Fuct facts is about right. They are different to the real facts. Although fuct facts are more fun, FACT.

I hope you aren't thinking of the Roy Jones against Tarver and Johnson and Calzaghe as the Roy that would have fought Benn prime 4 prime

I dont think Roy wanted any part of Benn when it made all of the big fight cents post Toney and McClellan respectably.For whatever reason.For active fighters he was awarded the largest guarenteed multi year network contract since Mike Tyson off of the Toney win and a Benn/Jones fight was there if he wanted it.He was afforded and choose to face a string of alphabet ranked guys/showcase types who collectivley had taken losses in their last major fight,were limited up & comers or war/torn Merqui sosa as opposed to taking big risks,leaving Fla. for a change & facing top threats in division.I think they were grooming Vinny Paz for him freah off Toney win lol....at least thats who Jones called out when asked "Benn or Pazienza" after TKO over Byrd.I think Benn would have given Jones shit-fits and was equal money in that fight.Hindsight being 20/20
