    Would be a great start to the year for Matchroom regardless of what one thinks of the fight, especially with Jamie Munguia vs John Ryder being planned for January too. It makes more sense for them to wait and do Eubank Jr vs Benn in the UK to be honest.

    Hopefully Anthony Joshua still gets out on December 23 in Abu Dhabi regardless of the opponent.

    Copper Box wasn’t available 23rd December for Benn v Eubank.

    What belt is Benn wearing in that pic?
    Did he get it in a box of cornflakes?

    Might as well speak impartially. The fact is the first fight sold-out in the O2 in a few hours. Weird comment.

    How many of those were bought by StubHub or another tout site like used to happen on all Eddie's shows

    No point in asking him that, he hasn't got any connections or inside info despite what he pretends. He won't have a clue

    There were literally thousands available through touts. I think they might have taken a bit of a pasting had the fight gone ahead. I hate touts so much

    Ummm excuse me, that's the prestigious WBA Continental belt that he defended about 8 times.

    Surprised Matchroom didn't sell it to their fans as a legit world title belt.

    Pretty sure Matchroom used to own part of Stubhub. Dirty business robbing people by the Essex wideboys.

    If Hearn links a fight, add three months to add a minimum, if it will happen at all

    Also if he lists a number of opponents for Joshua then it will be the worst one from the list.

    It's like it's 2016 all over again

    Quite clear what's going on, drag it on and on until Wilder gets to 40 years old or as close to it as possible then suddenly arrange the fight when the risk has diminished
