    Hearn hinting it’s a bit of a gamble. Any ideas? Don’t think it’s Kelly because of the way Hearn has tweeted here.

    Chris Kongo would annilhate Benn at this stage. He was supposed to fight Jenkins for the British, if not they have shat it big time. Avanesyan for the EBU has also been rumoured.

    Probably someone that shouldn't be a threat for Benn given the way Matchroom speak about him, but ultimately is a threat

    Kongo vs Benn is easy for Hearn to make

    Also after all that Chris Jenkins and British title talk, it's being said that Conor Benn/Matchroom are withdrawing from the British Title purse bids.

    Apparently Benn is fighting a foreign opponent for a WBA " Whatever" title or some crap like that.

    Conor Benn seems to have been boxing for absolutely years now, definitely time to step him up.

    The board notices come out this week. So guessing that may clear the Jenkins situation a bit
