I don’t think a Kell Brook fight is a good idea. He’s a recovering addict who just does some keep fit now. Benn is obviously desperate to cash out after being exposed as a PED head. He’s probably 20% diminished now he’s actually gone clean. Natural testosterone is probably well down.

I'd say 50% diminished given he went from going life and death with a french petrol station attendant to icing people...granted they were grandads that he starched but...polecateddy wrote: ↑20 Mar 2023, 08:58 I don’t think a Kell Brook fight is a good idea.

He’s not a recovering addict. He’s a lad who likes a sesh. Not great for a top class athlete but a world away from an addict.polecateddy wrote: ↑20 Mar 2023, 08:58 I don’t think a Kell Brook fight is a good idea.

Well actually in a perfect world even this does'nt go ahead , what happens in a perfect world the lying little scroat goes ahead with his bullshit court case against the BBBC something he won't do because he'es just a loud mouth little bully full of threats and bluster ,, but anyway in a perfect world he goes ahead , loses gets hit with costs , and ends up skint after the lawyers finish with him , Eddie relizes he's flogging a dead horse , takes his losses on him on the chin writes them off against the taxman , and pisses the cheating little toe rag offf . But unfortunatly its not a perfect world . still like to see him fight Annyesan

Not so much getting calmer , just getting sick of the whole boxing affair , when you look at it , Spence won't fight Crawford , look at the performance of Fury refusing to have a crack at undisputed , never fought Price , Ruiz , ect ect ect ... Benn with his cheating , Eddie with his pushing the drug cheat , PPV boxers only willing to fight tune ups , women with a couple fights being made world champs , Benn being rated 7 by a corrupt mob , Tommy Fury given a ranking . and the list goes on and on i just shake my head and think how bad is this . regards the commas , seems to have fixed itself when i pressed the comma thing it quite often would do two three or more .

5 years ago yeah but he’s shot to bits now and has fought once in 3 years against an even more shot to bits Khan. It’s a classic Benn opponent - a big name at the very end of his career wanting a payday.

Eddie Hearn Sets Some ‘Ground Rules’ For Live Simon Jordan Showdown
Speaking to Boxing Social, Hearn said he would be happy to answer the radio host’s questions, but admitted he is concerned about being spoken over by the combative Jordan.
“I might have to set out some ground rules before we start. You’ve got to let me speak. What he does is, he talks over you.”
“He’s a very good debater, as am I, and I’m happy to answer his questions.”
“The thing that frustrates me the most is that he would have done exactly the same thing as me. I don’t think he understands the dynamics that we don’t run the sport of boxing. The sport of boxing in the UK is run by the British Boxing Board of Control, so I want to explain a lot of that.”
“I’m sure it will be heated, I’m sure it will be great entertainment, and I look forward to delivering the biggest numbers on Talksport for some time.”

Eddie Hearn Says Conor Benn Has ‘Lost The Plot’
Speaking to iFL TV, Hearn admitted his fighter had “lost the plot” with the board, but that he would try and bring Benn and the organisation together to try and find a solution so that he could fight in the UK again.
“Right now, I don’t believe Conor Benn would get a fair hearing from the British Boxing Board of Control. I’ve heard their comments and I’ve seen the public uproar.”
“Conor Benn’s lost the plot, he wants to sue the board, he’s been hit with these fines which are not in relation to the results of the test, and I just can’t see a balanced approach from either.”
“I will be making an effort to get both parties to sit down and go through the process so he can fight in the UK – but his next fight won’t be.”
Benn’s comeback fight is expected to land in either the United States or the Middle East, with June 3rd being touted as a potential date.

Aside from the fact that Kell’s years past his best the other reason I don’t like this fight is that while Kell’s been retired for a year & regularly boozing & probably doing coke Benn’s had no boxing license & has been off the WBC testing pool for several months. He’s probably been on the gear all winter & in great shape as he’s not been getting tested

Things have been going well for Hearn the last few weeks (DAZN getting a Sky channel, good fights announced, Fury making a tit of himself etc) so why on earth is he persisting with Benn. Just fck him off. Surely he knows everyone in Britain hates him by now and he’s not worth the hassle.

I am totally astounded at some people’s stance on Connor Benn.
Whist some people predicted what would happen, I naively thought we would get a compelling reason as far as guilty/Notguilty is concerned.
What is happening at the moment is people who think we are as thick as f*ck that Connor Benn has been found unequivocally found not guilty.
What evidence is there that Benn is not guilty and when are the public going to be shown some respect and be told the evidence.
I am genuinely totally and utterly disgusted that boxing fans are being treated as if they are imbeciles.
For the sake of boxing, would Team Benn give the public what they deserve…. The evidence.

Eddie’s all in on Benn. His reputation took a hammering in the days/weeks after it erupted so I can’t see him walking away now.ashall2 wrote: ↑23 Mar 2023, 13:05 Things have been going well for Hearn the last few weeks (DAZN getting a Sky channel, good fights announced, Fury making a tit of himself etc) so why on earth is he persisting with Benn.

Strangely I’d probably say Benn is a bigger name now. Obviously for the wrong reasons but I’d still imagine that people will want to see him get KO’d and will watch.
