Such a great KO. I was a bit disappointed in the ref, as he gave the full count, and it was obvious he was out, way before he hit the mat. Safety is paramount and every second can be vital. Thankfully Chris was ok. From KO to OK. The best sequence of those 2 letters for the sport of Boxing.

Nice win for Benn and on to bigger challenges

Called it. Rematchroom diet, slow shot past it old men.
It's not a crossroads fight when your that old, it's a pension pot fight.
Benn has improved greatly but let's not hype the win, he's 2 year's older than Quitter & Brooke (both shot) who might be next.

I guess he fights Broner or Brook -Khan winner next.

Avanesyan could be too dangerous.

Hearn keeps mentioning Broner, but tbh I don't think Broner accepts this fight so for me if they want a big name which I think Connor is likely to beat would be Mikey Garcia then I think he could get a title shot.

That was a great shot and highlight KO win for Benn.

Highlight reel KO for sure but i don't like seeing old, semi-retired fighters getting KO'd like that. On another day Algieri could have got hurt. It's cynical match-making and doesn't do anything for the sport.

Plus Benn giving it large after knocking out a part-time retired fighter didn't sit well with me. Let's see the little punk fight somebody that hits him back as so far he's been matched with feather-fists.

Guess Algieri never got out of his cage…

They're going to keep feeding the Young Lion old Lions until Benn is ready for another Young Lion
