    I'd like to see Harley do well for himself, but when comparing him to Conor (which is going to happen..).. the difference in talent and ability is clear as day.

    Harley looks like he can drop some weight and to be honest, even putting them in the ring with Harley at 160-168 and Conor being a Welter, Conor would do as he pleased.

    Harley will improve fast, he has had a big gap between his last fight so I expect to see big improvements at the end of November when he fights next.

    Kell Brook,very cocky about fighting the best,when he did he got battered by Golvokin,and taught a lesson by Spence.All he has been doing in his career is following another deluded fighter called Amir Khan.

    Remember when he said to Spence about hitting him with them chocolate brownies that was cringe worthy !

    He just looks a bit clumsy to me , I think he needs to change his style to improve.

    What I found a bit distasteful and disrespectful was how he spoke to Eubank Snr when Senior was merely advising him not to go down the same path his father went down of hanging around with the wrong crowd.

    I found that advice to be beneficial, instead of taking it on board, Benn came out like a typical arrogant child 'Who are you to tell me what to do?'.

    I believe hes an ******* in the making.

    Too reliant on power and no plan b at all whatsoever.

    Funnily enough in the Taylor fight, even though he was getting completely outclassed, he showed a lot of heart....up until that final round.

    But your body can only take so much.

    Why do peole believe that nonsense about Eubank against Saunders? Eubank was outclassed. Nothing to do with his output or worried about his tank. He was getting a boxing lesson.
