      Financial issues. Benn wanted more than HBO was willing to dole out.

              Just because Benn was so aggressive and unpredictable. I never said he would for sure I said there was a good chance it could've happened. Could've been a good fight and I wish it wouldve happened.

                Is this because of roy's chin?

                  People tend to forget that at Super Middle Roy had amazing power. He would make Benn think Twice before throwing any wild punches. That why Roy would win this fight with ease.
