INTRODUCING CONOR BENN!

Post by Tuan_Jim »

Watch this Conor Benn bit from the Matchroom office of propaganda. Looks like Camp Eddie has gifted boxing another charmless dullard who speaks in scripted soundbytes.

What is it with these millenials and their lack of charisma? It seems as if growing up in this internet/smartphone culture deprives kids of some crucial part of their mental development. A race of vacant eyed, unthinking duplicates, speaking in the same brainless herd expressions. I can't wait to hear him promoting his 'brand' tonight.

I wonder how long it will be before we start reading that Conor Benn is the man every mother wants her daughter to bring home.

Are leggings no longer the preserve of fat lasses and gay backing dancers? Nothing is sacred. If you're not bent, leave the leggings alone. Nike may say they're cool but they've probably got a 500% markup on them.

conor was supposed to be boxing Luke Keheler but received a phone call Thursday to say conor was injured and the fight was off, next thing you know conor is ok and got a new opponent ( know this cos I work with lukes brother ) , felt sorry for Luke as word had spread round Halifax and there was a bit of a buzz for him with local businesses getting involved and stuff, can't really blame the benns if you look at lukes record you can see it was a tough début for conor

I agree - it seems that "young 'uns" are so busy pulling them daft duck faces to take selfies whilst aspiring to be like divvies such as Joey Essex that there is a whole generation of vacuous dullards.

No he doesn't, judging by his FB posts he was really coming to win, maybe the benns saw it and wanted someone less ambitious which you can't blame them for as conor only 19, to get the chance to perform on a big stage then have it pulled at last minute must really suck

Ok, I actually watched the vid.... And I must admit I was quite roused. Apart from his last sentence, I thought it was a good piece and that Conor looked pretty impressive. He is fast and hits hard; obviously that's different to actually boxing but the signs are good.

I'm disappointed his first opponent was treated like that, but it's usually up to the promoter, not the fighter.

Hopefully he will fight Keleher soon to make up for it. I hope he does well. I've been a big fan of Benn Snr since the early days. He's a warrior.

I loved Benn senior too brilliant what he did for british boxing. Trouble is people will be expecting Conor to be like his dad. I dont like all the tripe that comes out of his mouth, he copies Eubank jr and mist likely uses the same phrase and phylosiphy book. Cometh the night and cum on the man. Thats all im interested in

You are friendly and polite in your tone. What a lovely person you must me. Your wife is a very lucky lass. Oh, wait, you're single. I can't begin to wonder why.

Your playground level attacks confirm my impressions of your intelligence, Keithy old boy. Worry not, the future Mrs tuan_jim shall be joining me later on tonight in my lovely North London abode. Her plan is to miss the boxing entirely. No one's perfect.

Benn like Eubank is a brand. Both Jr's look talented and I do not blame them wanting to be fighters. Good luck to them both as they will both make more money and have instant fame because of their fathers. My only problem is that Connor will not be tested for at least 2 to 3 years. His next 15 to 20 fights will be for the purpose of padding out his record. I remember a journey man saying that he was getting knocked back work because the promoter wanted a 1st round KO for his prospect. Tonight will just be the equivalant of Connor Benn fighting a punch bag & looking good. I'll start watching him in 2 years time as they'll be no point. Real compatition for him is a long way away. Amuater boxers on there 1st fight are put in with others in the same boat.

Why are you bitter Keith? Maybe it's you who doth protest too much.... Tuan_Jim is one of the wittiest posters here and I enjoy his posts. Keith - Are you intimidated by a poster with a superior turn of phrase??? Honestly I'm confused by your vitriol....

Even if you argue that Tuan_Jim is cynical.... Well of course he is! He's a boxing fan! No serious boxing fan with more than a quarter of an inch of brain could fail to be cynical about the boxing world....

Keith is an extremely bitter soul, and he routinely tries to project his enmity onto other posters here, for reasons probably too spooky to pursue.

Hahhahahahhahah :lol: :lol: maybe he is a night security for some sh1t factory producing fibreglass insulation, and rarely has human contact. He has no woman and his only friend is the weirdo that runs the stockroom... Every night he jerks off over Internet porn and dreams of a better life....any other life but this..... He leads a fantasy life and tells anyone who will listen that he used to go out with Heather Mills, but dumped her because she became 'too possessive'....

I don't know how accurate that is, I don't care how accurate it is - from now on that scenario IS Keith's reality, in my mind.

I'm not bitter mate, I love all of my BoxRec chums, except for the Mr Jim, who immediately went on the offensive against me within his first dozen posts, claiming to know my level of boxing knowledge inside out. Got no time for wankers like that mate.

Ok... so you say you attack his posts just because you had a disagreement early on? So you're attacking him with an ad hominem argument? Surely on a respected and mature forum like this, content and argument are more important than personality? Can you post the threads on which you argued so that I can get the bigger picture? Cheers
