Ben is probably right about Liam being a better boxer that Benn and Jr. but it's a tricky one with Benn having never fought anyone. With Jr. it could be the case as he has only ever fought two good boxers ins career , BJS and Groves and lost to both. Jr's strength is his engine , chin and volume and in this Smith fight his size but as he found out a good boxer is not there to be hit and so he losses. He's right about the 'freak' fights them shouldn't even be discussed on a boxing forum and are for a 'different' sort of person who more than likely doesn't understand the sport of boxing .....come to think of it ,a few have crept on here recently.

I hear no lies in fairness to Ben.

Ben at the age , late twenties is one to watch ,very mature and astute beyond his years. Look for an upward curve and impressive stable from this kid very soon . Breath of fresh air, Sky boxing will thrive with this guy better than ever before.

Good for Ben. This “Misfit” boxing is getting out of control and instead of bringing in new fans, it’s poisoning the sport we all love.

It's putting eyes on the sport...it's not their fault that the real boxing won't give us the fights what we want.

Ben is a idiot.

I haven't watched any YouTube boxing, but I'm not bothered by it. Mismatches like pulling Jake Darnell out the crowd to fight Frazer Clarke is far more dangerous than YouTubers fighting each other.

It’s not, this YouTube sh** has been going on for years and boxing’s numbers have remained indifferent. Where are these “new fans”? What numbers do you have to support this nonsense argument?

All promoters say that until they get an offer for a slice of the pie

Eddie said he wouldn’t promote YouTube boxing until he got offered to put Logan Paul v KSI on DAZN and was in

Warren said he wouldn’t do it, but now trying to get Tommy Fury v Jake Paul on

Shalom can say this now but when the money is right and Sky are pushing him to do it, he will change his tune

Money talks. Everyone is a purist until the money is on their table.
