    Hooker would be a decent fight for Benn. He can crack pretty decent and is rangy. On the flip side he can be lured into brawls at a distance unfavorable for him and lacks some of the strength and durability for those firefights.

      Hooker is too small (skinny af) for '47. Wasnt really powerful at '40 either. Benn should fight someone like Kav imo

        Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t hooker from a lower division?

            Fighters need to start forcing Conor Benn to do drug testing.

                Hearn trying too hard to protect the guy that doesn't want to be protected. How do you know he can't handle bigger names? There's Ennis, Avanesyan. Overrated guys.

                  If all Hearn does is beg for PBC fighters to fight Benn, why doesn't Been just sign with Al Haymon.
