    Is it about time we realize that Benn is the real deal?

    Benn is Calling out Khan, Brook and Broner….

    Then mentions Ugas at the end.

    It is time he stepped up.

    He should be facing Avanesyan next really!

    No doubt that has played a part but he is better than he was at the beginning. I am just saying he has improved a lot. I am not saying he is going to win a world title or anything.

    Broner doesn't have anything else going for him. He lost a massive lawsuit and Has been a dumb ass with his money. He will jump in the ring with anyone for a decent payday.

    Guys come down, BENN is a prospect. It's not like Ortiz or Ennis beat anyone in the top 5.

    It's called matchmaking for a reason...Benn, Ortiz and Ennis have been matched right for a reason, none of them have beaten any KILLERS yet.

    I like Benn. He's made good progress considering he had next to no amateur background and is only 25. His head movement and jab were good tonight and his aggression was focused rather than wild for the most part. He's not a sensation, but he's a good quality improving fighter who has power and self belief. Would love to see him in with Ava next. I get why they're doing what they're doing, because Crawford and Spence are a level above and he's not ready. But please, not fricking Broner next, we need someone with desire who is a full time serious in form contender.

    See Ben having far to much power for khan and brook just looks more hungry for it

    He's definitely improved immensely and he's definitely talented but we have no idea if he can catch as well as he can give because they keep throwing him in against featherfists and they don't seem at all keen on the Avanesyan fight and fighting the shot shells of Khan and Brook or Broner's ghost ain't going to prove much.

    Agreed I also think Haymon and his crew have given up on Broner and would be happy to see him go
