Tyrone McKenna insists he’s capable of turning the crowd in his favour when he faces Scotland’s Lewis Benson at Emirates Arena in Glasgow on November 30.

After appearing on the big stage, you might think Sean Dodd would be reluctant to go back to the small hall circuit again. For the last few years, the 34-year-old has been a regular fixture on big arena shows live on Sky Sports, but ‘Masher’ says he can’t wait to tread the boards again at the Liverpool Olympia on November 30.
Talented Scotsman Lewis Benson has assessed the wealth of talent in the MTK Global stable at super-lightweight and simply stated: I’ll fight ANY of them. ‘Kid Caramel’ fought valiantly against unbeaten stable-mate Johnny Coyle before falling to a points defeat in Belfast last time out but is targeting another top 140lb name for his next opponent.
Edinburgh’s Lewis Benson has decided to take a risk by putting his perfect, 10-0 (2 KOs), record on the line later this month when the Commonwealth Games 2014 participant meets fellow undisputed prospect and former Prizefighter: The Welterweights winner Johnny Coyle, who has an 18-0-1 record with two KOs.
Metcalf recorded three consecutive stoppages in 2017 and has since been avoided with a string of pull-outs, delays and botched purse bids.

Former Scottish amateur star Lewis Benson is brewing with confidence after a flawless start to his pro career. The Edinburgh native notched up his second win on the MGM Promotions Boxing Dinner Club event in October and how looks ahead to another outing at Edinburgh's Meadowbank Arena. Light welterweight 'Kid Caramel' won numerous Scottish titles as an amateur and went on to represent Scotland at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow; he is a man in a hurry for titles.
