    Why is Jacques Villeneuve fighting Conor Benn?

    Good first round that. Benn has got an uphill task here.

    Done well there. Good finish. Thought he was in trouble in that first round but he’s done well there and showed some offensive improvement. The defence is still non existent though and he’s gona get KO’d again pretty soon.

    Good night of boxing that for a next gen card.

    Was a good finish. As we all know, he’s a KO waiting to happen but to stop that guy early is impressive.

    Especially after the first round. Thought it was going to be a long night for him.

    Feed him to Josh Kelly, I think it will be a fun fight.

    Actually a pretty decent win for Benn but I still fear the future for him.

    To be fair, he went to boxing more after the first round, although his judgement of distance was pretty bad, fired the Jab out a lot but didn't hit anything.

    Just remember the Finn made Benn's legs dip a couple of times within 2 rounds.

    The guy isn't a puncher either, going to get absolutely levelled eventually, unless they somehow steer him against complete non-punchers but even then he has shown he is so vulnerable.

    He can get a bit better defensively, however its probably only a matter of time.

    Finn had clearly seen some of Benn's fights.

    "not Nigel Benn's son" says Eddie Hearn... despite the fact he was announced to ring as Nigel Benn's son.

    I just can’t take to Benn. Even if he improves significantly from here I still don’t think I’d like him.
