he got that salt all over his jacket didn't he

If Benn is in any way fazed by all this ‘faking eating shit food’ and reposting videos of himself that he’s posted months ago then he would be a mong of the highest level.

Eubank knows he’s in for a tough night and will no doubt be doing everything right.

i think people are totally overblowing eubank being turned into a zombie and that he'll win this handily. he's not the type to put himself in a dire situation, especially at conor benn's hands. he's very risk calculated and will know far more about his body than we will.

benn went for this fight now because he was coming to a point where he was going to have to step up vs good welters. his team decided to cash it out first imo because they had little confidence in him at that level, just like they continually matched him vs negative pillow handed opponents

When have you seen Conor gas? He’s extremely fit.

When have you seen him put under any pressure ? It's hard to know how he'll deal with it .

Don’t get your point in relevance to my question tbh. He said Conor has gassed after the 6th which quite simply isn’t true. Against a better opponent he may well gas that early but until he does it’s completely all pointless conjecture.

it was a fair point, extreme fitness as a boxer is something you prove in a fight where you meet resistance, not one vs a living pillow hands heavy bag where you work at your own pace, which is all benn's had

Agree it really does look like a fill the bank account fight ,, You would think a really ambitous Benn would be trying to prepare for the world honors but theres nothing here is there except money and a no lose situation due to the weight factor

Yeh. It’s win-win for him really.

If he loses, it was “he lost to a bigger man” and back to WW for him where he can feast on the Van Heerdens and the Vargas’..

I agree with you. But I was the disputing the comment about him having previously gassed as wrong…. which it is. Eubank is hardly a Michael Katsidis prototype so I expect Benin’s engine to not be tested to the extreme here. His chin tho… that’s another matter.

Anyone heard of Coyle before?

Some were saying the same about Kell Brook's shot at Golovkin. The risk for a welter moving up to face a hard-punching middleweight is that the welter might sustain career-limiting injuries. While Eubank is no Golovkin, Benn is no Brook. So this doesn't feel like a win-win for me, more a very risky fight for Benn.

Yeh. Benn hasn’t even won a major belt yet.

Brook at least got back down to 147 and defending his IBF belt.. made a couple more mil in that defence. But tbh, that fight did further damage.

Benn ain’t gonna go back down down to WW and fight a top contender. He’s not even at that level.

Fight Week!!

This seems to have come around quick..
or is it just me..

You're basically paying the same as what we are in the UK, but it doesn't make sense.

These two are NOT from down under, it's NOT prime time boxing for you guys..

If they're gonna charge you, it should be around $19nz. They'd get way more buys and less people streaming or cancelling..

I don't know if you'd agree with that price.. Just threw it out there.

Maybe DAZN are worried about VPN's? Who knows.

Are you also looking to cancel it soon?

What's the next decent card? Bivol-Zurdo?
