    Heard talks about this fight being set up, I can't see it somehow. Any thoughts?

    Beef is better than eggs.
    Don’t trust a Conor not a Connor, same as a Jon not a John.

    Sure rich kid Egg Man will make enough to buy some extra warm heated Range Rover seats, fam, mandem, brap, brap, brap.

    Seems far-fetched. Any notion of where it would be promoted?

    Of course there are plenty of boxers who will fight a limited boxer in Benn for PPV loot; however, it is all just talk until Benn has a license to actually box.

    This doesn't seem legit. Beefy is still in his thirties and not a featherweight.

    Can't see it myself mate. Liam would need to be older or showing far more signs of being shot for Benn to get in the ring with him.

    lol Smith would murder him even with broken legs. Guys a physical fighter who's hung with Canelo and Benn is a small welterweight with crap defence.

    Would it though? Smith would travel, and box under a Luxembourg boxing board or some other silly bollocks

    Hahaha! True, but it's an odd name to throw out there, he's not a massive name, wouldn't bring a huge amount of interest, or money, maybe the "cash out" cash fight just isn't there, and this is the best they can do, or at least be arsed to do?

    I'd like to see Smith batter him though I wouldn't pay for the privilege

    I guess money talks.

    Smith has travelled for good money (and been robbed) before so I guess anything's possible.

    He speaks like he’s from the streets but is a rich kid. Thats what I was getting at.

    Regardless, I stand by anyone black or white who speaks like that are gobshites. That’s what I’m skitting.
