Benn was always a rough-hewn juggernaut of a boxer, but he was much more savvy and technical with it under Tibbs and should have gotten the nod over Chris in the rematch to reward that progression. Nigel credited the McClellan win to what he'd learned from Jimmy, though they'd stopped working together before the fight.
Benn was a natural talent. He won his first amateur tournament in the army after four weeks total boxing training.
Name me which elite fighters couldn`t do this? Why the hell is he punching so hard in a sparring match anyway? it`s just practise. Don`t even know who the guy is he`s sparring against.
Lacks the skills of his father but young English is an absolute animal in the ring. Will pick up a world title at some stage. Him vs Canelo would be a barnburner.
