    Lol. Brook brings in money. You want former champs on your resume. Brook’s got Porter on his resume

      You are probably one of those who think Boots and Ortiz jr. are much better than Benn? based on what?
      Porter got beat by Spence, Thurman, and Brook. He's a gate keeper. What is Benn's great asset? His jab, his footwork, his power? All that is weak. Ortiz takes him out, and Boots makes it look easy.

        You're probably not wrong. Benn would take Khan over Brook if it's about padding the resume, I think, just because he has better name recognition with the British public.

          Eddie will find him an old, shot fighter with a name who is well past his prime that should have retired years ago. Or somebody coming off a crushing defeat or back to back defeats. Eddie will then convince the braindead and brainwashed matchroom casuals what an amazing win it was.

            Khan & Broner are not top dogs.

              I would like to see the Avenesyan fight, that could arguably be tougher than a khan or brook fight

              let’s face it, both are shot and what motivation would they have to train hard for the fight?

                  Not ready for the physical style of Porter just yet.

                    Two time world champ is clearly not a gatekeeper.

                      I think Khan, Brook or even Broner would be good fights for him and a nice progression based off his win over Vargas.

                      Porter is way too much and I imagine Avenesyan would be as well. Porter has lost but only to top flight guys at the time he faced them and he's never am easy out for anyone.

                      Benn has been progressing lately but it wasn't too long ago he was getting roughed up by a Belgian fighter with nearly as many losses as wins. He needs to be deliberate and careful in his development.
