Christopher Livingstone Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Nigel Benn & Liam Smith vs. Aaron McKenna RBR.

Since apparently we do these dumb old man fights now, a senior battle between the fathers on the undercard of the rematch?

 

I'd like to see a title challenge from both before the rematch, obviously not gonna happen through many factors

 

Eubanks the A side ATM, Exo. He can call the shots next time.

The huge money will be there for sure. So I think Eggy will go with the flow.

 

Got cheesed off with pundits and fans talking about Canelo tonight. What's he got to do with this British grudge match?

Enjoy it for what it was.

Having either of these 'not really quite world class' fighters getting mauled by Alvarez benefits nobody.

Let's see the rematch in a proper sized ring without a silly hydration clause. Benn has shook of his ring rust, Eubank will be a bit older but not compromised by brutal weight slashing: it'll be another barn burner.

 

Hopefully Eubank is less compromised next time. A younger Jr would stop Benn no doubt.

 

The broadcasters insisting on calling 116-112 wide when it is two swing rounds is beginning to infuriate me Especially when it then becomes parroted by everyone.

 

Not been so pleased with a fight result since Usyk v Fury 1. I am a very happy man tonight

 

Eubank JNR was clearly the A side for this fight.

 

This ^^^^^^

 

From what I saw in the highlights, they were both absolutely dreadful.

 

they both had moments.

 

I think Eubank should retire for the sake of his health. He won fair and square tonight and gave every ounce of his being despite being shot to **** because of that ridiculous rehydration clause. It is a nice way to cap off a somewhat underwhelming and at best average career.

However, money talks and i'm sure there will be a rematch, if there is Eubank should insist on a catchweight of 165 and no rehydration clause.

 

Well, I'll borrow from our friends across the Pond to say that last fight was a corker.

And when was the last time you saw a full card of five so evenly matched consecutive fights...?

And whose idea was it to have Ed Sheeran, Hannibal Lecter and David Beckham lookalikes for ring-card girls...? (I loved it.)

 

The main neg for Eubank IS age, Exo. Eubank's not getting any younger and IS past prime i think. Whilst, Benn, is still improving and on the up. Tonight's fight will probably be then, long term, more beneficial, and not too ironically so, for Benn.


I still think Eubank has Benns number if they rematch soon, and on Eubanks terms.

Whether Eubank can stop him now or not, I'm not sure, mate. Benn's chin seems sold enough ATM.


But if they could've faced each other, prime for prime, at a sensible catch weight, I think Eubank wins every time. KO or not.

 

Lol definitely no custard..... he'll only put some moody eggs in it
