He just isnt skilled enough. Lots to learn though and he ight turn out well but its in stark contrast to watching british up and comers over the years like hatton, khan, froch, groves and so many others who all showed exceptional levels of something, whether it be speed, or power or skill set whatever.
Benn hasnt shown any of that and looks very limited.

I like the boy. He's learning on the job and improving with each fight. I remember it was his second or third fight where he made it harder for himself by brawling with his opponent instead of boxing, he learnt his lesson and is getting better each fight.
When your daddy is Nigel you are going to get compared to him and get alot of stick. On the plus side he's getting media attention early on and good sponsorship deals e.g Reebok.
He's still young and a working progress.

He's got the same kind of style as his dad, but not the same kind of power! but he seems tough, so i think his aggressive and enthusiasm will see him in some good fights!
I don't think he has shown elite level ability, or even signs of it! but like i said just before, he seems really passionate about this game! and passion can take you a long way in life.

Check this guy out. Son of the dark destroyer nigel benn, conor fights in the welterweight division. At the young age of 20, connor has made an explosive start to life as pro, winning all 6 bouts so far. He has made huge improvements in the short space of time he has been a pro, no doubt learning many useful tips from nigel. In my opinion he looks like one of the best young prospects in the sport today, and as long as he continues to work hard, the sky is the limit.
What do others think of him? Could he be a future world champ?
looks fast, wild, and powerful for a young kid. he's definitely looking like his father's son.
his father was faster, less wild, and a heck of a lot more powerful doe. nigel benn could freaking ****. the guy had knockout power for the history books. one of the hardest punchers i have ever seen. should be a fun kid to watch. haven't been watching closely enough to see him making steps, but hopefully they're matching him the right way and he's learning each time he fights.
