    This handsdown style doesn't work for Babic at all, he's best up close when he forces his taller opponents to smother their punches and pushes them off balance

    This reminds me of something at a carnival where they invite members of the pubic into the ring to see if they can last a few rounds with the local muscle man.

    Round 1: 10-9 Babic
    Round 2: 10-9 Babic
    Round 3: 10-9 Babic

    Bennett catches Babic with an overhand right, Babic looks like he lost all his power, he's fighting in slow motion but he's smart and working the body quite a bit here which at least shows us some decent fight iq as Bennett doesn't look like he's going down from all those head shots. Bennett is a tough SOB but he's so tired but he's trying to hang on. They're fighting head to head on the inside but both guys are tired, Babic doing some decent work at the ropes, hooks, uppercuts and body shots, nice variety but he can not put Bennett down. Bennett barely can keep it on the feet, he's so tired it's ridiculous that he's still standing. Big left hook connects for Babic who goes all out in the last 10 seconds.

    I once saw two guys very drunk at 230am fight each other over who was going to use a gas station bathroom first. This fight kind of reminds me of that

    How can Babic swing and miss him? I can hit him from Dallas.

    Round 1: 10-9 Babic
    Round 2: 10-9 Babic
    Round 3: 10-9 Babic
    Round 4: 10-9 Babic

    Babic connects with a left hook and for a moment it looks like Bennet was on shaky legs but Bennett coming back with some wild overhands just throwing them to keep Babic at bay but it doesn't work. Babic is still there right in front of him. Nice uppercut from Babic. Babic has no defense at all, Bennett probably has less power than a Bantamweight right now despite weighing like 270 pounds. Babic with 1,2s - landing clean. Babic's inside looks pretty solid, he shows some variety and has a good shot selection. Bennett just trying to survive, no offense anymore. Bennett now performing a perfect impression of a heavy bag.

    Anyone with decent conditioning good timing and semi decent chin will beat babic.

    Bennett going for the Homer Simpson strategy of just getting punched until his opponent gases.

    I'm willing the fat oaf Bennett to make it to every bell. It's because I don't want this highly entertaining freak show to end.

    Babic's face is a magnet for straight punches. Even Bennett can barely miss when he throws straight shots and not haymakers

    Bennett has the best chin in the HW division. We're talking about a military man here who has served his country doing tours of Afghanistan. A hard man through and through.
