    Good result for Smith, but my God he is an awful watch.

    Surely sweet Caroline is just a meme at this point.

    How the **** is Chris getting booed? He's a true class act, and one of the easiest guys in the sport to root for. How depraved of these fans. Evidently Benn fans are every bit as vile as he is.

    This is horrific from DAZN. Terrible annoying pundits. Matching prospects against featherfists. Sweet Caroline. And insane cringe from Benn.

    Benn is terrible. One of the most overrated guys out there. He can't box to save his life. All about explosive power punches and taking a good shot in return. Flashy BS. Of course they're cherry picking 35yo van Heerden who has fought one round in ~ 3 years.

    It

    is

    a

    joke

    !

    I must confess I know very little about Van Heerden - is he a live dog in this fight?

    van Heerden - at his best, he could make an upset here and finally end the hype. However, he did not look good against Ennis as long as it lasted. Hope he starts better tonight.

    If Benn wins this convincingly, I hope Hearn dare put him in against Avanesyan, e.g. for a title eliminator.

    They won't go near Avanesyan , the excuse being he doesn't sell tickets. Which is a crap excuse because Benn clearly puts bums on seats so it doesn't really matter at this stage who the opponent is.
