Comments Thread For: Conor Benn Powers Past Sebastian Formella For Wide Decision Win

I didn't think about the the physical appearance lol, but that's very true too. Something about Benn's offensive/defensive behavior and swagger felt like I was watching Prograis or Thurman. He performed about as good as Porter, so I'm sure Benn's team is happy that his progress in training has exhibited itself at the best time.

I'd like to see Benn against Ray Robinson next.

Yeah there was a few moments were he resembles Prograis i was going to mention it here to but I didn't want to get ahead of myself. He's got the ability to at least be competitive against the top fighters still needs a few years before they put him in there against the top guys tho . Ray would be another excellent step up fight for him.

Not impressed. Put him in with Vergil Ortiz or Boots Ennis.

When you’re in there with a stationary target who can’t harm you then you’re free to do whatever. Benn used combos that he fell in love with hitting the bag. Looked good. Wouldn’t preform as well against someone with better defense and power.

I honestly don’t believe this fight told us anything.

Dead right

I like Benn. Nice fan friendly style. He hasn’t got the power for his style to be effective when he moves up in levels

with the amount of world titles out there and all the leg ups and people surrounding him along with Hearn he’d have to be worse then useless not To be found something to fight for . Perhaps the WBC can invent another strap with the word “world “ in it ..

Yes most definitely getting a title fight, he just needs to keep winning 'Is the Josh Kelly the right way to go about that? Who knows, but Benn seems to want that fight real bad etc'.

Fair enough he is putting the work in, but he was given a golden opportunity because of his father's legacy 'Being signed by match room, and fighting straight away in front of packed arena's'.

Interesting to see the comparison between Eubank Junior and Benn 'I have noticed how Chris Eubank Senior conditioned his children early on, soon as they wanted to start boxing i.e Eubank Senior deliberately sent Chris Eubank Junior away to live in america 'I remember seeing video's of him street fighting' Senior done all of this to condition him, threw him out there on his own 'Because he knew a fighter who comes from a silver spoon background, could have deficiencies in his character etc.

Chris Eubank Junior is as tough, and ruthless as they come 'He has won fights, lost fights and still he maintains his focus' not as talented as his father, but he is giving it a good go.

He only wants to fight Josh Kelley who was exposed in his draw this is not a big fight in anybody eyes so what's the point. He is gonna get beat up real bad when he finds a decent fighter. Plenty of fighters who are British can beat him

[Terryrat]

Well now you know Formella was no pushover but well beaten by Darkdestr oyer 2

As much as I admired his father Nigel, I have to be of the opinion that Connor Benn is nowhere near elite level or even a contender for anything more than Eurobum stuff. It's like he dresses up and plays 'Pro Boxer' every few months.
