    Well done Conor Benn, won well, I can't be bitter or salty and say anything else.

    I think the lack of power from Formella is what I take from this, Benn has improved and looked good in some patches but he isn't a huge puncher like Nigel, they need to stop that narrative.

    He is a good domestic level fighter.

    With a style like Benn you need power
    he does not have it and will get knocked out by the first top contender -puncher

    Formella giving it a real go. No quit in the guy whatsoever!

    Connor Benn has arrived.
    We can all start taking him seriously now.
    Absolute shut out for me.

    Round 1 Benn 10-9
    Round 2 Benn 10-9
    Round 3 Benn 10-9
    Round 4 Benn 10-9
    Round 5 Benn 10-9
    Round 6 Formella 10-9
    Round 7 Formella 10-9
    Round 8 Benn 10-9
    Round 9 Benn 10-9
    Round 10 Benn 10-9

    Formella got beat up early, Benn gassed a little, stopped going all out, Formella managed to counter him with several one twos down the stretch, but still got outworked easily.

    98-92 Benn

    Mangled. My opinion hasn't changed. He did better here, but... it's Formella.

    Much improved from Benn but at the same time, very clever matchmaking as Formella is a featherfist. It'll be interesting to see how Benn deals with someone with a bit of power.

    For a guy with 17 fights who didn't really have an amateur career to speak of, Benn looks pretty good.

    I'd like to see Benn v Porter might be a very good fight.

    Awesome fighter Benn. He has margin for improvement, though. And that's good, it means he can be even better than he already is.

    I'm looking forward to looking him vs better oposition.

    Props to formella, too. Brave guy, brave.... he has heart. Nothing else, unfortunately, but he has heart.

    Benn definitely elevated himself from domestic level tho to European level I’d say with this sort of win. Puts himself ahead of Kelly tho that’s for sure
