Nas no doubt. Benn made the most of his talent and potential, Nas never did. A young Nas could be a world beater with the right attitude.

Benn. Naz was great too. But Benn was raw fucking excitement.
If only...

Benn. He'd batter all of the SMW's around, especially Kessler!!

I voted for the Prince. Simple reason is that, as good as Benn was, boxing is deprived of a real 'entertainer' at the moment. Naz all the time for me. Exciting, well-schooled heavy-hitters like Benn can be found all over the world- Naz was something completely different, IMO, and boxing NEEDS characters like him again.
Or a taller Napa with punch power

If he didn't take the Judah fight so early you never know. Good pick :D

Imagine Benn coming up against the prospects we have now:
Benn vs DeGale - Build up would be similar to Benn vs Eubank!
Benn vs Jeffries - A war!
Benn vs Groves - Great fight!

Both were violent, Hamed was controversial and charasmatic.

Benn - The last thing the World needs, and I do mean THE LAST THING, is another Naseem. He was a prick inside and out of the ring and a complete embarrassment to the sport. Everything he was about can be viewed when you watch his "walk-in" to the Kevin Kelly fight. :-(
I seriously believe that the Ingle gym is now being cursed for encouraging him and will produce fighters like Steve Barnes for the rest of their existance.

My thoughts on Naz are well documented, so it's Benn for me.
Mainly because I think the sport is missing a mean, aggressive, horrible b@stard. We've already got characters and showmen (which is no bad thing) but we also need a bad ass mofo to stir things up.

A young Heavyweight version of Naz and a young heavyweight version of Benn but I will settle for Derek Chisora and Tyson Fury.

Heavyweight versions of Benn and Nas, damn that would be something to behold.
