God I hope it isn't Eubank vs Benn 1 for fight of the year.
A few other places have given it them.
was a cracking fight tbf
Never really saw the fuss really - it was low level and Eubank won decisively enough. Yes it was a good "event" with Eubank Snr coming into it and SImply the Best being played etc - but surely there have been much better fights. It was too clear a win IMO for it
Thought Smith vs Buatsi should be ahead of it anyway (by some distance) and that's not been nominated.

Sadly we are in a world where noise counts for more than quality.

He definitely has crazy eyes Usyk. Certainly looks the part of a villain even though he always comes across as anything but.

Eubank and Benn were surprisingly mutually respectful
