Conor a chip off the old block.

Can he do it against the big boys though

 

[paulchapo]

Very fast and decent power too from Benn.

I watched the women's fights before it. Although it doesn't feel right watching women hitting one another there was a cracking bantamweight fight, a young girl from Watford won the title against an Aussie fighter. Kudos to them both, great heart, skill and guts

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Welterweight division is great at the minute,could be some cracking fights coming up over the next 18 month

 

[PistonBlue]

Benn calling Khan out though, just can’t see it. Khan won’t go anywhere near him, and he’d be wise not to on that showing he wouldn’t last two rounds.

Absolutely imo, most of the big boys at 147 are in their 30s.
I think he’ll steadily work his way up towards a World title hopefully .

Conor done the job well. I be honest I was shocked to see the ref stopping it so early. Vargas should of been giving a bit more time.
Conor calling Khan out who called Brook out. Haha I just don't see that happening. Sure Benn wanted the Josh Kelly fight not too long ago. Benn needs testing and as mad as it sounds going in with Josh Kelly will happen whether it's sooner or later down the road.
Hearn could have a new PPV star in Benn if he keeps focused on the job and stays grounded.

That fight was brutal. The state of the oz girls eye at the end showed how much they went at it.

I thought it was a justifiable stoppage tbf, his head was being thrashed about unprotected and with nothing coming back. His brain would have been bouncing around inside his skull like a pea in whistle Another couple of of those heavy, unprotected shots and he could have been seriously hurt

 

[oldius]

Well timed stoppage from the referee, in my opinion. A superb performance from Benn, well beyond my expectations having watched him several times before.

Don't get it. Why would any boxer call out that pansy Khan? Khan ain't a boxer. He's a celeb wannabe. Any tom dick and Harry could knock him out. Khan is finished. Only touting his name within boxing to gain popularity. Media whore. Done n dusted.

I think Vargas could stop Conor Benn tonight. Vargas has fought much much tougher opponents than tonight.
Could be a cracking fight.

My thoughts too before the fight. Thought his ring craft would see a close fight. How wrong I was. Benn looked huge, so broad. Demolished him

I’m with you; I couldn’t and didn’t watch the women’s boxing, just doesn’t sit right but that’s just me, each to their own

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Well if benn is going to be world champ,he’s got to fight some of the best out there Spence, Ennis,Crawford Thurman and porter

 

[paulchapo]

Yes I know obviously they should be allowed if they want to but I just don't like seeing women get hit, even if consensually and by other women. The young girl from Watford had a good story though, she'd turned her life around through boxing. What a tough little cookie as well.

im not a massive Khan fan and I don’t want to see the fight but that’s a bad take. look at his resume and some of the fighters he’s been in with

Agree about the stoppage .
Benn has hit him almost 20 times without reply.
Khan will be rubbing his hands now for a final pay day be it Kell Brook or Conor Benn so potentially a couple of good domestic fights for Benn before he starts thinking about the yanks.

He proved me totally wrong, Benn from the word go was outstanding. I hope I'm wrong again but I can't see him winning a world title, The welterweight division is too stacked...How do you even get a shot at Spence or Crawford they are on another level.

Been getting back into the boxing recently and I really fancy the Canelo - Saunders fight and the Andrade - Williams fight but they are on DAZN.

It only cost £1.99/month but I had a look on Trust Pilot and it's reviews are poor; some people saying that they can never get the streams, some people saying that they have continued to take money after cancelation and the cancelation process is and impossible task by the sounds of things.

Happy to pay the monthly fee but just thought I'd see if any of you had any info on it beforehand.

Ta!

Ive had it for a while, havent watched any live fights on it but always watch a couple of days after. Its ok for £1.99 but I find it not very user friendly, I was searching for a fight a few weeks ago and nothing would come up besides the highlights, decided to spend a few minutes browsing what else they had on there and stumbled across the full fight that didnt turn up when you searched the boxers names which makes no sense.
