    If Benn wins it's going to be hard to avoid the thousands of Hearn interviews over the next few weeks. I might just log off and live in the woods for a bit, foraging for berries and fungi.

    For a so called devastating killer, Benn has only 14 KOs in 24 fights, hardly 80's Mike Tyson is he. Considering this has been him fighting pretty much a bunch of journeymen, and his best win coming against a blown up, washed up Chris Algieri in the final fight of his career. How could we forget that fight he lost against the French journeyman? He's clearly sauced to the gills again right now, but I still can't see it being enough to beat a much bigger more experienced Eubank. I hope I'm not showing wishful thinking here, I'm trying to be objective despite my disdain for Benn. Am I missing something?

    I agree, I'm not impressed by Benn at all with what he's achieved so far in his career. Any doubt about the result I have is based on what version of Eubank steps in to the ring on Saturday, is the weight cut just to much for him this time around? Will he have the energy to fight at a high tempo that Benn will no doubt initiate?

    Also, does anyone know who the ref is? Please tell me it isn't Howard Foster

    Howard Foster shouldn't be allowed within 10 miles of a boxing ring

    I was thinking that at the press conference.

    I will be gutted if he's too drained and gets beat by the little runt Benn.

    Hope he ignores the rehydration clause and just pays the penalty

    Out of interest mate, why?

    Can obviously see why people can dislike Eubank, but surely that goes out the window with the drugs stuff

    Unfortunately, Victor Loughlin is equally as bad.

    Especially when a fighter is backed up into or onto the ropes, he is too slow to step in and break the action up, and he almost gives the other guy a free shot.

    It happened with Wardley Clarke 2 and Nick Ball v. Issac Lowe; I'm not saying it would have altered the final result of those fights, but it was dangerous.

    How can any boxing fan want that horrible little drug cheat to win, especially with all the other stuff involved in the fight.

    I hope Benn wins but I believe the size difference will be too much and I believe Eubank stops him.

    Eubank over a hour late weighing in and scumbag Hearn gloating about it again.

    It’s absolutely disgusting in the most dangerous sport of all but it sums Matchroom up.
