      How does Eddy do it? Side deals, midnight meetings, lose a billion next to the B sample, meddling and favoritism? Zombies in Vegas? Somebody got the glad hand.

He hasn't fought big names yet, but he's looked like a top contender demolishing his better opposition as he moves up. He's a very big and strong WW. Devin Haney is the only fighter from that list who would be a solid favorite over Benn right now. Benn completely destroys Kell Brook, Eubank, Josh Kelly and Josh Taylor given their current form, and I would pick him to be a very live underdog against Abdul Wahid (who would never ever take that fight) because he's so much bigger.
        Benn is a good fighter.

        Ufortunately the handling of the drug situation was/is a PR disaster which hass bitten him on the a$$

          The guys body completely changed after he almost shít the bed against peynaud or however you spell it.

          And then in the first fight were he has VADA testing he gets caught coincidence? I think not...

          He's juiced to the gills and has been since his scare against mediocrity...

              Yeah, not arguing that he was not PED enhanced. We'll see how much it affects his performance going forward. I know I'm in the minority, but I think Benn remains a serious contender at WW.

                Really, I think he's similar to Tank not in his potential ability but I think he's happy fighting stiffs and has beens and TALKING about fighting people but never actually doing it.

                  It almost seems like he says out loud what he's telling himself, hoping one day that he will be "the man" and everyone will be calling out his name.
                  Benn seems oblivious to the reality of his circumstances or blinded by his own inflated ego.

                    I’m starting to think this guy is really delusional or maybe dope
