BHop would be best equipped to win in a tournament format because of his safe fighting style and ability to control fights. Jones will probably be the popular choice for this but in a 6 man tournament his chin would get craccked by BHop or someone else. Seeing that BHop should've beaten Calzaghe @ 43 he would've disposed of him. I don't thnk MCLellan, Benn or Eubank have much of a chance against the big 3 but any of them could catch Roy.

Your presumption here is that an ageing Hopkins almost beat a PEAK Calzaghe. This is wrong. Calzaghe was some way past his peak also. Plus it was a poor performance by Calzaghe even by the standards of being past his peak. In reality a past-his-peak Calzaghe narrowly beat a past-his-peak Hopkins.

[Truth]

It wasn't a peak calzaghe it was a bit over the hill Calzaghe versus awhile over the hill Hopkins.

[El Kabong]

RJJ would school all those guys

[Fenster]

Benn would have won easily.

He already beat G-Man. 3 pts.

Drew with Eubank (was unlucky with the draw). 1 pt (should be 2).

No way in hell Roys chin would have stayed intact. 3 points.

Hopkins ugly messy style wouldn't have worked against Benn. In fact Hopkins would have faked injury to quit. 3 points.

Calzaghe's macho streak would have let him down. Toe to toe with Benn there's only one outcome - Calzaghe sparked out. 3 pts.

That's a whopping 13 pts for Benn. None of the others would get close to that number. Fact.

I think James Toney (had he been included in this instead of G-Man) was the perfect guy to beat Nigel Benn, although it's not like Roy would have had many problems with him....Benn was dreadfully overrated

Benn and Toney have three common opponents. All three Benn beat first, naturally ruining them, and more impressively.

1. Barkley = Benn smashed to bits in 1. Toney won in 10.

2. DeWitt = Benn smashed to bits in 8, sending him into retirement. The shot DeWitt quit on his stool in 6 against Toney.

3. Sanderline Williams = Benn easily won on PTS (SD was because of a corrupt American judge). Toney DREW before getting a win.

CLEARLY Benn is the far superior fighter on form. Fact.

So if Benn is "dreadfully overrated" what does that make Toney?

Even though Calzaghe was quite boring I would put him to win. He may get knocked down but that seems to spring him into action. In the Hopkins fight Calzaghe was loosing to hopkins great tactics in the first three rounds but then he addapted to his style.
Being able to adapt along with his amazing work rate/endurance and being able to take a punch. Hes a very difficult fighter to defeat. It must be quite disheartening to fight Calzaghe.

So basically what you are saying is a both feet in the grave Calzaghe beat a one foot in the grave Hopkins?
