Comments Thread For: Conor Benn on Keith Thurman: That's the Main Fight I Want Out of the Whole Bunch; I'd Be Too Much for Him

I'll bet you wished Tyson Fury did!!

Tyson Fury was blessed on the scorecards to not lose that first fight with Wilder...

Same could be said of Ennis with Spence and Crawford.

They hold the belts this is who should be called out. If Benn was calling out champs it would be completely different. He is calling out fighters that he thinks are past it and unavailable.

Interesting.

I think this is showing some serious intentions from Conor Benn.

Keith Thurman is still a capable fighter,

I picked Kell Brook at 150-154 to beat Conor Benn.

And I would most likely pick Keith Thurman to beat Conor Benn.

What a pile of ****. Haymon is always open to doing business. When he first started the PBC every promoter hated and wanted it to fail some even sued. Now they all crying like ho's and blaming him.The PBC will always be on top

I also don’t know why people bytche about PBC. They work with both DAZN and Top Rank. I can’t think of even one time DAZN and Top Rank worked together.

He has mentioned Avanesyan. He's made it quite clear hes not fighting him. What's so hard to understand about that

I must have missed that, I'll reread the article. Thanks.

Benn has not been tested, who has he beaten?

His been fed ex champs way past their best who were average at best. Algeri was virtually retired and inactive. Hearn is losing his top fighters one by one so is really protecting Benn by not giving him tough fights and when his in a proper scrap will not be prepared.

Thurman will school him he likes fighters who come on to him and picks them off, his awkward and throws punches from all angles. I know his been injury prone and if he is healed then still is arguably the 3rd best welter. He was dropped by Manny early and was unlucky not to get the draw.

Hearn better get Benn some tough tests or he will be battered by the top fighters, his not ready for Thurman.

Benn v eubanks. This is what we want. Benn might need to b loat himself up. Why isn't Benn same size as his dad?

[stellen]

Good test for benn, look forward to watching it.

If we’re being real, Thurman will only be used as a stepping stone for Boots because that’s what benefits pbc. The most realistic big fight for Benn to make is with Vergil Ortiz because it can easily done with Hearn, golden boy and dazn. But since Hearn wants to keep the perception going that Benn is a future star, he won’t make that type of fight anytime soon. Expect a Benn vs Victor Ortiz type of fight instead.

Jaron Ennis is managed by Cameron Dunkin and fight on PBC cards because of a deal with Showtime. He is not under the PBC banner.

[sicko]

again they throw out these big names they know won't happen only to announce Benn fighting Thomas Dulorme or somebody of that Caliber next

that is my only issue with Benn and Eddie, stop pretending and just be honest about the path he is going, we know Eddie don't want him to end up like Josh Kelly
