    This would be great. 2 top prospects going at it. Deffo would be a breakout fight for one. How could u see this going?

    Haven't seen enough of either of them but kelly looks the more gifted so I'd lean towards him but I honestly don't know yet.
    Rather see it further down the line

    Yeah maybe. How does kelly do the weight? He fairly big at welter?
    Walking past jd sports and there was a big poster of kelly so there are big things expected of him by the looks of it

    Seems like a good size welterweight. Don’t know about the power tho, doesnt seem special but he’s great technically

    Would be good but I'd think both their teams would look to make the fight when both have reached a higher level and there would be more money on the table.

    Kelly to me looks like he could be something special, he makes everything look so easy, he reminds me of a young Naseem Hamed with his flashy style. I'm especially impressed by his counter punching, many use that hands down style but don't get the full benefit of hit by not counter punching enough to make opponents pay for their misses.

    As long as they both keep winning this could be a very big fight in the UK.

    Josh Kelly wins whenever and however he wants.

    There's levels to boxing.

    Kelly wins and fairly easily. I see nothing that Benn does better than Josh.
