Comments Thread For: Khan on Conor Benn: He's Got to Go and Prove Himself Like When I Fought Maidana

[boxing IQ]

And make sure he doesn't look as bad as you did against Brook.

Benn is the oldest of the bunch and furthest from contention. Ortiz is 22 and Ennis is 24. I calls it, the Buatsi syndrome, build up into old age. Amateur experience means snap to father time.

[Corelone]

I don't see the method. If Benn is waiting for the young guns to eliminate each other, or some one else to take them out. I'd give him even less of a chance against such a foe. I think Eddy is wasting his money here, not on Benn, on the weak opposition.

[El Más Loco]

Khan is right. I can't take a man calling out Adrien Broner, at this stage, seriously. Benn is just a UK domestic level hype job as of right now.

LMAO if Khan knew he was getting into he would not have signed the papers for that Maidana fight. That Maidana however was still a work in progress and he got better throughout the years.

^maidana was the mandatory challenger, Khan had to fight him or vacate, he fought feather fisted Paulie earlier on in the year to delay it.

Then maidana looked ordinary vs Corley and Khan decided to fight him, great fight we ended up getting eventually though.
