    How can you be well above domestic level when you’ve never proved yourself at domestic level?

    They’re taking the same path Frank did with Yarde, avoid domestic competition, work your way up the rankings.

        This man needs to be calling out Jaron Ennis.

        Quit playing around and put yourself on the global map. Enough commonwealth silver championship bouts.

          Yeah he chased after paydays versus Brook and Khan who were both shot.

          Benn has previously rejected opportunities at English level, British level and European level.

          Essuman is a great fight for him. So is Avanesyan for the European title.

          Going through the proper levels is the best way to develop a fighter in the UK. You’re straight up delusional if you think otherwise. Name me one great fighter in UK history that never challenged for a BBBofC, Commonwealth or EBU title?
