    Typical di Bella fighter , non puncher from NYC , tough yes but go back si Bella fighters from the big apple and see their ko records , having said that the boy Benn is average at best so my moneys on Algieri but probably a bent Win for Benn as Hearn has no fighters left and needs all the life lines he can get .

      I thought Algieri retired and got a job on The Food Network.

          This is exactly why I changed my mind in regard to betting on Algieri, which I wanted to do. Given that the latter is not a puncher, I believe there's no way he'll win a decision here.

            If Benn loses to 37-yr old Chris Algieri, he's done! This is a lose-lose situation for Benn!

              I don't rate Benn as world champion material but Chris was only okay in his prime and is feather fisted so shouldn't present much of a problem heading towards the forty mark.

                  Algieri has been brought in for reason. 'nuff said.

                    It is what it is, this is intended to be a learning fight for Benn and to get him more experience.

                    I'm hoping this is the last fading contender that's fallen into the gatekeeper role Benn takes on. I want to see him target some regional titles or at the very least somebody on the up.

                    McKinson, Avanesyan or even Marku

                    PBK if he comes back and wins a couple will become an attractive opponent too. Or the Khan/Brook winner. There's a lot of possibilities.
