Jeez Louise, this Benn Jr. is already 35 years old and he kinda lurks around in the public imagination as a contender (of sorts) but no more than that.
Either a waste of a career or a built-up sham that was never meant to be.
i don't really care which one at this point.
Please stop publishing articles about him, BoxingScene.

hes desperate for the eubank fight but the pen will make it hard for him now unlike before when he agreed to be drained for the fight

[Poopdick]

if he ain't back on the roids, he can't beat either. he has looked very bad post steroids. and I'm sure he will be back on them

[STREET CLEANER]

The Eubank is a win win for him. If he wins he will have a name in his resume, if he loses he can always says that he is the naturally smaller guy and will get another shot at something because he is popular.

Barrios is the low hanging fruit and is who many want, the highest bidder will get him.

the wbc rankings at 147 seem pretty awful, eggie is at no2 after being unranked by the wbc last year

[Smash]

can eggie even make 147 now? id say hes putting all his eggs in the eubank basket

I wouldn't let Benn near a title without merit. So far all we have is drugs, bans, and evasion. I'm pretty sure Barrios would box his ears off but Benn doesn't deserve and hasn't earned it.

I agree about the fact he definitely does not deserve a title shot. No one with zero wins over Top 10 opponents should be fighting for a world title.

But there hasn't been any bans, or evasion (outside of the initial few months after the failed test)

Benn might beat Barrios, who is damaged at this point. But Benn doesn't box much since the drug scandal. I wonder why?
