    This could be a great chess match. Nino's fluid offense and sneaky power vs. B-Hop's savvy, physicality and inside game would make for an interesting match. Who wins?

    I think Hopkins wins by making it an ugly fight but I don't think it would be easy for him. Benvenuti is a handful especially off the jab until Hopkins times him, makes it ugly and wears him down.
