    Conor was winning the battle of the entrance music with Ready Or Not, until it morphed into some weird reggae song.

    Taylor is huge at the weight but cutting seems so much easier for him than for Prog...

    Anybody seen this Jamoye character fight? With 5 KO's in 35 fights, he's clearly not a banger. Just another punching bag for the massively over rated and over ranked Benn I assume.

    Absolutely bizarre how that works sometimes. I've wondered for a while how the hell Taylor and Ramirez made the weight so easily. They not quite Hurd like, but close.

    Benn looks pretty soft. Maybe he should spend more time in the gym and less time in the tattoo parlor.

    He's fairly skilled against impostor prospects, so yeah, he has a chance here.:D

    You'd be assuming correctly. This is pretty dire matchmaking.

    With that defense you know exactly why he's fighting the likes of Jamoye.

    I keep changing my mind on the outcome of this one. I think Taylor is the better boxer but he's kind of got away from doing the things that impressed me so much when he was coming up or rather he's not doing them as much as he used to. He's at his best when he's letting the combinations fly freely, switching from head to body, body to head and whipping in classy uppercuts and not loading up on his shots. Stephen ''Breadman'' Edwards has noticed this too.

    ''Prograis vs Taylor is a real 50/50 fight. I have been really high on Josh Taylor but lately I think he’s been treading water. I think his style has gotten monotonous and he looks to be struggling to make weight. Sometimes you can stay at a weigh too long. I think that may be the case with Taylor. But I still think he’s the goods.''

    Round 1 Benn 10-9

    Benn landing a ton of body shots throughout, but Jamoye got a few counter hooks up top.

    10-9 Benn.

    Sky is ignoring all shots of Jamoye.
