Bomber Graham

Yes overrated boxers go 38-0 before losing a very disputable decision the could have gone either way to the great contender Kalambay, who was in his prime and would go 1-1 against McCallum himself. Then Graham would lose another disputed decision to a Prime McCallum, which some would say he was unfortunate not to get the verdict. This is the same McCallum who gave 1 sided beatings to Mike Watson and Steve Collins, remember the 2 that are 5-2 against Eubanks and Benn. Not to mention many say Graham completely schooled Eubanks in sparring and was avoided by Eubanks, Benn and Watson amongst others for a great period of his career
He was a very good fighter, but some people here are looking back through very rose tinted glasses at his career.

Yes he was very good, but to be brutally honest he was found wanting at the very highest level.

Benn and Eubank were not
So why didnt Benn and Eubank ever fight Graham

Money?

Maybe "Saint" Graham didnt want the fight?

Herol and Calzaghe would make an awful style match, but I see Calzaghe struggling to land on Graham for large portions of the fight. It would be hugely controversial whatever the result, I suspect.

Probably didn't make business sense at the time, I actually feel Grahams style would have given Eubank fits but Benn would eventually have landed one of them bombs and it would have been lights out for Herol. Shame the fights never came off but hey we can't have everything can we?
