Comments Thread For: Conor Benn Demolishes Chris Van Heerden in Two Rounds

[buddyr]

I don't think many people want to fight any of them, but I think they've all fought acceptable opposition to this point, especially Ortiz. PBC is not putting their big money guys in with these dudes (that might change soon with Ennis)

Well those mfers should fight each other. There are currently 7 undefeated fighters in the top 10 of 147, including Ennis, Benn, and Ortiz. If they can't get fights, then they should fight each other. And please don't say they are too young. All of them have been pros for 6 goddamn years. By the time Leonard was in his 6th year as a pro, he had fought Benitez, Hearns, and Duran twice. De la hom0 by his 5th year had fought Hernandez, Camacho, Sweet Pea, and Chavez. These mfers have fought NO ONE and continue to beat up on journeymen. 6 years is close to a ***in decade. How much time do they need???

He seemed to be too anxious in there, kind of sloppy as well. He does look to have a good punch but was just all over the place.

He was calmer against Algeri. I think van Heerden's movement and southpaw stance made him get sloppy and rush his work.

I'm sure Khan would come and Lay down for a check at this point in his career why not lol

That's just not how boxing works nowadays, none of those guys are gonna take that risk unless a world title is on the line. All different promotions and they aren't gonna risk it, too much money involved in each guy for their company

Did he enter the ring and just go ahead and lay face first on the canvas?

You're a cruel mo fo

And that's the problem. Everyone is protected and their fans encourage and support the protection with excuses.

I actually enjoy listening to Froch when he's not talking about himself

[BigZ44]

"He mentioned Amir Khan, but he's only good for gettin knocked out, that kid. He needs to retire." Froch is murdering Khan

[PotentialToast]

Khan's chin would explode with the first punch Benn lands

Benn is not hard to hit. Khan ko/kod in 1st are only possible outcomes

Hearn mentions Mikey, Danny, Thurman and Broner. We'll see if he can get any of those guys, threw out Avanesyan at the end, but I can't see that making sense. All risk, no reward

Thurman and Danny = no chance in hell. I don't see any PBC affliate facing Benn unless forced by a sanctioning body, that goes for Butaev/Stannionis winner too. Ennis isn't technically a PBC fighter, but he probabaly has a better shot of getting a Broner fight than Benn does.

Benn is gonna have to face Avanesyan, who will probably be cheaper than the likes of Mikey and Broner.
