Ben Cohen and David Beckham have been battling for the Sexiest Guy in the World For All Time, at least here on this venerable blog, and as we are all only getting older, it’s worth some accolades that they are still vying for this title. A brief listing of their previous half-naked appearances follows, as it’s been a while since either has appeared here. (Cohen’s last shirtless romp was in this post, while Beckham’s body was last seen in this post. Whom do you prefer? We’ll start with Ben Cohen, whose photos by Snooty Fox Images prove that collaboration is often the source of all beauty.

His first Dazzler of the Day crowning was not enough for Ben Cohen, who added a second Dazzler post here, with even more underwear poses.
His white briefs are the standard for gratuitous posts here, and his calendars are the stuff of genius. (More shoutouts to Leo Holden of Snooty Fox Images for shots like this.)
He also went naked for a good cause.

David Beckham has an equally-storied history in these parts, and the fact that we are the same age is a bit of a gut punch when I fall into the trap of comparison. I mean, his front and back beat mine easily. His backside finally got some clamored-for exposure in his latest underwear campaign for Hugo Boss.
Nobody wears short-shorts better than Beckham. We also owe his wife Victoria blessings for granting us these views of his boxer briefs.
It’s been over ten years since he was named Sexiest Man Alive, and he still merits the title.
For now, this battle rages… and Cohen lands the closing blow.
