    Benn starches the paper champion Barrios, I mean how can you have two back to back draws in world title fights. Garcia would be a harder fight but Benn can suffocate him. As for Haney that could be competitive and I'm 40/60 for Haney

    They should let Garcia and Benn both take PEDs for that one, let the best drug cheat win.

    That's smart, if there was ever a time for Benn to move past domestic bouts it's right now.

    Honestly, Eubank should have retired after that last fight. His career has been one long farce, dodging Golovkin and when stepping up to 168, got outclassed by Groves, going years without a trainer because he was too good for that, which meant his technique was **** and that once he got past 30, his high-level engine, relentless aggression and speed would decline leaving him without any boxing fundamentals to fall back on.

    I wanted him to beat Benn because Benn is a drugs cheat and tarnished his old man's (my boxing hero) legacy. But he has always been limited and had a huge ego and delusional faith in his ability that he never justified at the top level.

    As for a rematch.... Please? Who wants to see that again unless you have a psychotic hatred of Eubank and want him to be seriously hurt.

    Not to be one of those guys who is smart after the point, but how good was Eubank ever really?

    In an era where everyone gets a belt of some sort, the most he could ever claim was an IBO belt in 39 fights

    He should face Jack Caterall or Lewis Crocker, they have come up the right way. All Conor has fought is Eubank Jr who at least also fought domestic rivals for a British belt.

    My last question and certainly the hardest one. If you could pick one famous woman to spend your life with who would it be. Mine would be Shania Twain

    Eubank Jr. has been done since the first Liam Smith fight, make no mistake about that. Yes, he won the rematch but Beefy was arguably just as shot as he was, and had one ****ing leg. So he was literally beating a one legged man in an asskicking contest, and it still took him 10 rounds to stop him.:lol: The fact that he got horribly rocked in the second round of the first Benn fight, and then went to war with a featherfisted drug cheat for 12 rounds, and never came close to scoring the stoppage, then add in that he was even more drained and depleted this time around. This win means about as much as Marquez-Vazquez IV.:lol:

    I think he was good but short of world level. He did fight for a genuine world title vs Groves in the boxing super series tournament but that doesn't mean he has been world class.

    Maybe so. Benns team are saying he's done with it, and Eubank looks a truly shot and finished fighter, so it's probably all moot anyways.

    Wasn't world class and he probably knew that as well hence he dodged Golovkin. He made a lot of money so job well done, I suppose.
