    True! Loma is not the best comparison in the literal sense but his name was he first to pop in my head when I was thinking of any fighter who looks dazzling like Josh.

      He looks talented but not really refined yet, seems too 'excited' in the ring too.

      I'm big on him doe, hopefully he matures into an amazing top level fighter cuz Welterweight is no joke.
      Definitely excited about him too, but we got to understand that he has only fought 5 times as an amateur. His style is the typical Adam booth one, If you see early David Haye then that's PBK to a tee. Just need to give him a chance before we put all these pressure on him.

        I think he fights like Roy Jones Jr more than Naz or Lomachenko.

          I like him, I think he should step up to British level now you can tell he’s getting a bit frustrated with his level of opposition

            I think he is very promising with amazing reflexes, timing, defense and a fast accurate attack with a large variety of punches.

              In my opinion, Benn will be lucky if he wins a commonwealth title in his career ..

                He looks good against low tier fighters, but he depends on his reflexes too much and will get lit up by guys with good timing and speed.
