    Adam Smith on Benn’s opponent..... He’s just sort of flying forward though isn’t he. No real technique. (Or words to that effect)

    Babic was doing the same thing but with even less skill and was being called relentless, savage etc. Absolutely laughable.

    Benn’s very hittable. Hearn will never put him in with a puncher until it makes financial sense.

    If he doesn't load up so much and uses his jab, which is good, keep some compsure, he will have a decent career. He doesn't have the power to get away with some of those lunging shots at a higher level than this fight, he'll get punished.

    It will be interesting too see what kind of ranking this win will get benn..they shouldn't move him to quickly imo and another couple of fights just like this would be good for him.

    Someone needs to give Benn and Ritson the same bit of advice, they are not ko artists.

    Just doesn’t respect Formella’s power here. Good matchmaking this to be fair in building Benn.

    Benn looks like one of those maximum security inmates from American prison documentaries. I would love to see him get beaten up at some point.

    Absolutely perfect for Benn really, Formella was never knocking him out so no danger of losing.

    Mental to think Formella started off as a Middleweight
