Damn, i had to nip out and missed it?

So is Benn actually a good fighter then? lol

Well, he is very solid prospect in welterweight division. he will be ready for big fights soon IMO.

Glad it was early doors though, the TR undercard starts in 10 minutes

Who’s fighting?

There's no way Eddie is sacrificing another money maker to Avanesyan, y'all can get that outta your heads right now, ain't gonna happen. Ava is too dangerous and there's not enough reward in it

Who’s fighting?

A couple young HW's are up first, Smith Jr vs Vlasov will be the main event for the WBO 175 lb title

Yes he is, my criticism is for the referee, Benn did what he needed to do and Vargas should have taken a knee or something to make sure he didn't give the impression of being too hurt to fight back.

It was definitely a bad stoppage. Vargas wasn't throwing punches back but he wasn't hurt and the refree never said anything like show me something or I will stop the fight

Easy to say afterwards though

his head was like a pinball and not throwing back.

if it’d had gone 10 seconds more and he ended up on the floor, people would say it’s a late stoppage when his head was already getting bounced around

Not an easy decision to make at the time I think.

Come on, that was a premature stoppage.

Vargas is a tough guy. At least let him go down, and even after that give him a chance to show if he can come back or not.

if this guy has been the ref for McClellan vs Benn the fight would have been over after Benn got knocked through the ropes in the first round.

Come on Frank Warren, I like you generally but now you all are bull ****ting people caling out all these dead horses, Broner, Khan that’s weak as hell. Crawford would look to put him in check, Porter will bully him to death, Spence would tame him and Boots would give him speed, power and craftsmanship bring him to to USA!

[TX_BOXNG]

Maybe a standing count would of been best, but Vargas didn't do anything, not a bad stoppage
looking forward to Benns next fight

I think peoples main gripe with this is consistency.
Josh Warrington got dropped hard several times, hurt on a dozen occasions and nearly got beaten to death and it wasn't stopped yet everytime a Brit rocks/stuns someone they flurry and the ref jumps in.

Vargas wasn't even badly hurt just taken back a bit by the speed of the shots imo
