I have a few questions about this young super welterweight.
He's moving up the rankings and apparently wants fights with Tszyu and Horn.
Is he a threat to either of them?
I haven't been able to find his last fight on line but on the boxrec wiki the average score had him losing to Kris George.
I'm sure some of you guys watched it, what did you think?
He was a Muay Thai fighter before switching to boxing.
Anybody know his record and/or accomplishments in that sport?

Q. Tszyu and Horn - Is he a threat to either of them?
A. At this early stage of his career, he is outside of the class of Tim Tszyu. But after his recent bout with Kris George, he would match it with Jeff Horn, who has diminished over his recent bouts.
He did not lose to Kris George, but it was a close hard fight, and showed that Ben is on the right track, plus he would have gained a lot from that 10 rounder. The judges scores were pretty spot in showing that Kris lost: Phil Gregory 94-95; Adam Height 94-95 and Rodney Marsh 93-96.

Re: Ben Mahoney
Tim would smoke him
Horn. looks spent these days. He may be shot enough for Mahoney to beat, even though Horn reached heights I doubt Ben will ever

Re: Ben Mahoney
Thanks.
Sounds like you guys think he's a decent fighter but I shouldn't expect to see him on dazn or Showtime fighting for world titles.

Re: Ben Mahoney
Pretty handy fighter. Would love to see Kris fight him again now he has a fight under his belt as he’s been out for about 3 years. Not a lot in the fight but I had no problems with the decision.
