Why is he below Ortiz jr. or Ennis? Who the hell has Ennis fought?
Ortiz has fought the best competition out of them and it's hard to question that. Ennis has a thin resume but he's avoided.
He will have proven he can beat a B-level middleweight, but his place in the 147 rankings would stay the same, at least in my eyes.
Right now he's an up-and-coming welterweight who is below guys like Ennis, Ortiz, Staniosis, Crowley, and that would still be the case if he wins. Even more so if it's 156lb catchweight because people would say Eubank was drained.

so will you and others admit you were talking rubbish when you were saying hes a protected fighter? or let me guess, the narrative is hes going up in weight to fight eubank because hes scared of that avenesyan guy lol
He was protected. Now he's cashing out.
Way less would be prepared to stream compared to those who would be prepared to watch the fight on TV. Everybody I know pretty much stream everything now.
so a few days ago everyone was saying benn only fights bums and nobodies, now people are saying hes fighting someone too much of a threat, a fight he cant win :lol1:
He fought bums and nobodies and now he's in a fight he can't win. Seems like reasonable observations. :dunno:
Neither can I
Eubank for his flaws is legit granite chinned
Benn has no chance of hurting him
Eubank is stronger, better engined, more durable, punches harder, more experienced and significantly bigger
Benn has no advantages
Eubank has a shit engine. It's why he postures so much.
I don’t think it will happen whatsoever but if it miraculously does, is DAZN really the right platform for this fight? Demographically, this fight probably appeals most to people aged around 40 or older, people that actually remembered the Dad’s fighting and their epic rivalry. I doubt many of those people use streaming apps like DAZN to watch sport. This is a fight made for linear TV if you want to maximise revenue.
Is 40 too old to figure out how to stream?

Desperate times call for desperate measures.
Edward has his DAZN PPV UK launch obligation to fulfil after fumbling the Usyk v Joshua rematch.
This bum fight hooking into the past of their pops rivalry gives him something to work with.
He should get English vs Benn III as the main event and put their bum sons on the under card - it would sell better :boxing:
I can't see a way for Benn to win

That statement doesn't mean much. It ends in a lie so the whole thing could all be a lie.
I dunno he seems to be trying but then its Hearn wouldn't shock me if he went grave robbing and found some name out of nowhere to fight Benn
I hope it happens. For it to be huge it has to happen now. Benn loses to someone like Thurman and this fight is dead. Benn is unbeaten and taking on the bigger man with only 2 high level losses, it kind of evens out who the public will think wins. If Thurman demolishes Benn, nobody gives a damn about this fight anymore. Nash out.
