Round-by-Round: Ryan Garcia vs. Conor Benn - September 12, 2026

[rd350lc]

Is it the camera angle or is Benavidez much bigger than Jai ?

I bet he is.

[Glass Joe]

We never got fury AJ in their prime but we might get jai vs monster

[Taansend]

Nice finish.

Jai v Monster next May?

Who knows.

Shades of Kovalev v Stevenson, two dominant guys who walked through everyone else for a while but whom boxing politics kept apart

Well they are face to face in the ring now so hopefully Ziffa can put the money up & we see the fight sooner rather than later.

Yeah he is a bloody unit isn’t he.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Probably strip him then come 14th

[Ruthless-RKO]

I’m awake!!


Let’s goo!!!!!

[Glass Joe]

I actually want benn to win this for jokes

[CaptainSpacerod]

Amazing that such a unit can throw such a high volume of punches

Some might say suspicious

[Ruthless-RKO]

I got paramount+ stream!

F U Adam Smith!!

[KiwiRider]

Opetia is a modern day beast, really respectful to his opponent too.

He should be a massive star in the sport, but it doesn't seem like he gets the exposure he deserves.

He's having the snowball effect, every time he fights his fan base gets bigger.
Really likable in and out of the ring.

Great win for Jai. I guess it raises the question, should boxrec display when the zuffa or ring belt on records.

You talking about David Benavidez last fight

[Kilburn]

On top of watching this live, I squandered another hour waking up before the chief support. I hope this fight is competitive.

[KiwiRider]

I don't like either dude, but tonight I'm team Garcia

Benn just doing up his gloves, feel that’s not an ideal warm up time, then be big walk ins and stuff. I’m putting a small bet on Garcia early, (weight drained? Caught cold? (I mean Mabey he will warm up good and there’s just going to be a delay)

Not a better for a while but I would be round betting garcia first 2 rounds

[Grilling Machine]

Managed to get Opetaia at 2.40 in play; just £20. I think it was the end of the 3rd when Mik apologised, which I often feel is a sign of someone trying to unprod the beast when it happens early, revealing doubts they can last under greater pressure. Thought Opetaia might be content to cruise it as it went on though.

[Delta Jay]

What do we think of the weight gain thing? Pure click-bait if you ask me, he’s got his pockets full of sand in that vid

I've heard of UFC fighters putting on 20lbs after weigh-ins but haven't really known it in boxing.

I thought Benn looked pretty good on the scales and seemed to have plenty of energy. I think Benn has learned a lot from Eubank Jnr who was very good at the self-promotion and mind games in the build-up to both of their fights. It's all good for the clicks and comments, isn't it?

I thought Connor looked positively skeletonian on the scales, plus the rehydration lies and he we will 100% not have a 12 round gas tank.


Garcia is at his highest weight and grown in to it over time. Ryan is also just a better boxer

[Taansend]

First time I saw Nigel live was 40 years ago next year.

I'm old

It’s almost ceremonial at this point mate, but what are you doing this morning? BBQ? Weather?

[Ruthless-RKO]

Garcia via left hook please

[MasterG]

Garcia via left hook please

I just have a feeling Benn will stop him.

I can't see this going 12 to be honest either.

3:10 pm Sunday
Sunny, 18° and I'm just contemplating a beer

[Ruthless-RKO]

Damn!

Benn playing mind games

We know Garcia is naturally the smaller man.

Wonder how much Benn actually is.

I don’t believe he’s pumped up to 180 pounds
