    Used to like Benn before the eggs business but this fight really shouldn’t happen. But Eddie wants to see murder yet he was crying on The True Geordie podcast whilst talking about Patrick Day who died in the boxing ring.

    What? If you want to see the best fights you should never watch a fight with either of these two in unless it’s hoping the other fella splatters them. You know like Liam Smith did, anyone else without famous daddys would have fell way down the pecking order after that and the manner of it but no. Little rich kid let’s give him more millions for achieving nothing. Little rich kid drug cheat, let’s let him off with it and give him more millions.

    Both achieved nothing in the sport apart from make a **** load of money conning people.

    I can’t believe I’m replying to this. I won’t, I’m an adult and I stand by what I say.

    I think you need to give your fellow posters on here a bit more credit.

    I won’t be watching.

    If people want to watch it fair enough but it’s got the 2 things I hate most about boxing: Lenient penalties on drug cheats and rehydration clauses.

    Why are you so certain on others behaviour? Bit strange really as everybody is different.

    I've no interest in watching this fight whatsoever and am still hoping it doesn't happen.

    Would like to know the number of £ it took for Eubank to change his moral compass.

    Pathetic fight in my opinion, and one that I won’t be watching.

    Eubank just got battered by Smith - should be trying to avenge that. Benn should be sanctioned for the cheating.

    Benn will KO Eubank in my opinion. Hopefully Smith gets to fight him after. Would be nice for Liam to have Benn and Eubank on his resume

    I wonder if Eubank still has the rehydration clause to contend with or if it has been scrapped as Benn doesn’t really have anywhere else to go fightwise?

    That is literally the only thing I find vaguely interesting about this fight.

    All prizefighters have a number. It's literally what they do.

    I get that. It just amuses me how quickly he hops off the moral high ground when the numbers go up.

    I will watch this fight purely in the hope Benn gets a good pasting plus I do like Eubank. Certainly won’t be paying to watch it.

    Hadn't realised Benn was also managed by the Sims family (Charlie the son, who otherwise spends his time making money off the back of "reality" TV). They really do seem to own Conor's career generally and you wonder what grip they have on the Essex boxing scene generally.
