    What about Anderson vs Bakole lol?

    Congrats Hrgovic, fully deserved. Congrats Garcia, guy looks very strong at 147. Levels to the game.

    But these guys train hard, it's not fair for the fight to have been stopped early, at least let Benn go down on his shield. There have been times where a fighter has managed to weather a storm, but likely Garcia would have stopped Benn at some point anyway.

    It shocks me that people thought that this was going to go any other way. This was about the easiest one to call that has come down the pike in a minute.

    Because the ref unlike you saw that Benn had not thrown a single punch since he was knocked down and was going to get hurt badly, get over it man. He was going to get rendered unconcious!! Your boy Benn likes to use that term

    I put zero effort into analyzing this match. I remembered how much Benn was lunging in during the Prograis match, and said yep... Early Kingry KO, and thought not a second more about it.:lol:

    Brilliant right hand, flattened Benn. Ref was a tad early but with so long left in the round it was going to happen anyway, Benn was getting leathered.

    Levels to the game. The right hand was so flush.

    It would have been good to find out,for the USA that the Reff was bad, i thought USA Reff's give a boxer every chance.This is why i think the fight was fixed from the off.

    I know but Haney was too emotional fighting Ryan; Ryan thrives when others are aggressive there are more openings

    Eubank tweets 'welcome to the fighting after cutting too much weight club'. I don't think the fight went long enough to even begin to see any serious effects from the weight cut.

    Conor Benn is a disgrace. Talked all that talk and got wiped out in 1.5 rounds by a Ryan who hadn't stopped anyone at 147 and who got schooled and dropped by Rolly of all people. Getting schooled by Rolly is akin to getting slept by Paulie

    Feed Ryan, Teo, Haney and Paro to Paddy O Donovan and watch them get taken to slick school.

    I do wanna see the Ryan vs Haney rematch though. I'd route for Satan if he was fighting Haney and that's some real dubbly bubbly real talk

    One good way to ‘fight to the death’ is to … fight back?

    He wasn’t throwing punches. He’d been knocked down hard and the other guy was teeing off on him.

    If he wants to avoid a stoppage, he should be throwing back.

    (The reason he wasn’t throwing back, of course, is that he was seriously hurt. Which is why they stopped it.)
