    I think I preferred the second fight over the first, not really preferring either to anything else, really.

    The first was a fun slugfest but seeing that again would be stale. The most surprising thing was seeing Benn utilize a game plan and stick to it all the way to the final bell. I figured he'd let Chris drag him into the pocket again based on his proclivity to emotional fighting. That didn't happen.

    It's over, no needles were moved, two guys got paid and didn't die, and I didn't pay for any of it.

      Say it quietly, but I quite enjoyed Benn's performance.

          Eubanks lost out on the possible Canelo payday because he looked so bad.

          Ben on to better things.

          Canelo has to find a new easy return fight opponent.

          Eubanks I have no idea where he goes from here.

            I reckon Benn's needle has moved. He's just jumped into a different category. He's had a couple of big box office fights and would be a realistic target for a title match.

            2 years ago you couldn't have predicted that.

              Fair enough.
