    Benn is domestic level at best. There's a reason why he isn't fighting Avanesyan.

      Granados will be all over him next. No more BS stoppages hopefully.

        I like Lennox Lewis, Carl Frampton, Ricky Hatton, Katie Taylor, Liam Smith, George Groves, and a few others. Hamed was cool but too much later in his career. Never liked Eubank Sr, either, but I like Jr. I think Senior is a fake white British wanna be.
        Fair enough bro, my bad

            ". . . when he is hitting the numbers he is hitting, we don't want to see him in a 50-50 fight just yet.”

            And there you have it really.

            I would wager that neither Ennis or Ortiz are in that list of 5 fights . . . .

              Conor Benn's fails are amusing, even when he wins he takes a L : for example you noticed Benn's empty performance over Sammy Vargas, Benn accomplished little and created more questions than answers in his hollow victory by typical UK/Matchroom premature stoppage ; the internet was not impressed -- even Benn made fun of it. The UK fans are low-key rooting for him, but are embarrassed to come out and cheer for Benn.
              U call it an empty performance yet he won, and at least would have heavily knocked Vargas down had the rather premature stoppage not happened, why not give credit where it's due? I get it, it's your MO to hate British boxers and only support the best fighters like the craziest fangirl out there, but it's okay to support someone who u know isn't gonna make it to the very top, chisora has been my favourite heavyweight for years but it was clear many moons ago he wasn't ever gonna make it to the top. Just try supporting guys for the quality and entertainment of their fights rather than cos their the best and I guarantee u people will stop laughing at u on here and you'll finally gain the respect you've been desperately craving

                Total Bollocks by Hearn , Spence and crawford hold the belts . Even though they will be a year older they will still have too much Ability and ring IQ for benn. PLus you have Boots EnnIs and Virgil ortiz who are both younger than benn and in my opinon better boxers . So i dont know were hearns Getting a Belt from

                  Eddie will put him in with old shot fighters with a name, hence why he's calling out Khan and Brook. It's quite pathetic really.

                    Good luck to him! Stacked Division with some of the BEST Prospects/Rising Contenders in all of Boxing in Boots Ennis, Vergil Ortiz, Jesus Ramos, Daniyar Yeleussinov, Rashidi Ellis, Eimantas Stanionis...Josh Taylor will ultimately move up as well so 147 will not get easier anytime soon

                      Bro, it's not like I never saw him on film before, but mostly in passing. I'll check him out this weekend. Thanks a lot.
