Benn 2 doesn't seem to pack the booming power of his dad but looks relatively interesting.
Three years of record padding now?

Saw enough in 2 minutes to see why they didn't want him fighting Keleher, he'd have got beat.
Also seen the results of the work he did with Hatton in the footwork up close, moved around the opponent well.
Yeah I noticed that too, no need to be hard on him he's only been boxing 2 and a half years

Yeah, as long as he's fit he be ok to do that especially with the name.

Considering where he grew up I expected Conor to sound like a cross between Antonio Bandaras & Crocodile Dundee.
I'm disappointed.

He's been building up to that all his life don't matter about how many bouts he had?

Really? Is that all he had? He looked good, very fast and vicious punches. Yeah he got caught a few times, but it's his first fight and the pressure must've been enormous with this huge crowd at only 19...
Having said that I did cringe seeing him and Nigel doing that rubbish dance in the ring.....

I'v a feeling we are going to see something here.
Whether it is Brophy stepping up to be competitive or maybe even win, or Groves look devastating I don't know tho.

There is scarcely any footage of Brophys fight. Still what I found he did not look too bad against some punching bag.

I'll tell you what Groves looks fleshier than usual? Or am I seeing things?

Groves camp complained about Howard Foster being the referee. When will he ever get over that fight. He got the rematch in front of 80,000 people.
