    I said this after the DLS fight, but I've just made the same mistake. Never again, the dude is the complete antithesis of entertainment.

    Conor doing his bit to try and out awful and out cringe Americans Teo and Keyshawn. What a grotesque circus. Let's have some parliamentary procedure here

    Yeah.

    By about rd4 it was clear teo didnt have a clue. By rd7 the fight was secure and teo had realised he couldn't do anything. By that stage Shakur could see teo coming a mile off, had an answer for everything and so I would have liked him to have put his stamp on the fight by really beating on teo.

    It reminded me of when the good, cocky, explosive, athletic, charismatic young fighter spars the old timer coach..... and gets a lesson.

    I dont rate teo. I think hes been great for the casuals because of his attitude and charisma but as a elite level boxer? No.

    Serge, you nailed it! Well said. Especially relating to the announcers who seemed to think the last third of the fight was no different than the first two thirds.

    Benn is explosive but he won’t be able to crack the code either

    It’s a sad situation where after a performance like that, he has to call out Connor Benn because he’s the money draw.
    He might as well have said it’s all about the money not legacy

    Images like that can be pretty deceiving based on a number of factors like perspective, clothes, how the fighters carry their weight, whether they were in camp or not, etc. there isn't that big a size difference between the two but to me it's pretty clear that Teo is a naturally bigger man with a slightly wider frame and more natural muscularity to him.

    There's a reason why you were so cocksure, because you know as well as I that Teofimo has the ring IQ of a slug. So it went exactly like you were expecting it to. Therefore, it was a foregone conclusion. So tell me, why should he get an ounce of credit for beating someone he's always had a clear stylistic advantage over that looks like **** against southpaws?
