    Tough one!

    I grew up with Benn aswell, but think Joe would hae edged it on points, with his extra style impressing the judges that little bit more.

    Joe was vulnerable and had a few knockdowns, I think Benn would have hyped him up into a brawl and wouls have tagged him good style.

    As much as i love joe,I would have to go with Benn on this one.I think he would have won with a late stoppage.

    Much as i admire Nigel Benn, Calzaghe is just on another level.
    Calzaghe at his best would have overwhelmed Benn in the mid - late rounds.

    I love Benn too, but Calzaghe would have sorted him out

    Benn is probably my favourite fighter ever, but I think Calzaghe would've made him look stupid and won a comfortable UD

    more tippy-tappy punching from Joe.

    I think both would have hit the deck. IF Benn whirlwinded him early the fight then Benn by tko, if JC makes it past 4/5 he tickles Benn to a decision.
