    Benn headlining in Vegas, Feb 3rd, against Pete Dobson.

    Dobson was scheduled to fight Pat McCormack a few months ago before McCormack got injured.

    The nerve of him to put his name out there with the likes of Ennis, Crawford, Spence, Tank and Haney to then announce a fight with Pistol Pete Dobson. Fantastic to read the comments on the announcement.

    So the new narrative will be a summer 'mega fight' which we all know is a retired Kell Brook.

    Remember it's not a small hall show because the Bingo operator has given them $200 to do the show before the evening session.

    Tickets will cost pennies or will all be comps.

    How much can he possibly be getting paid for this?

    Is this the beginning of the end?

    A slow fizzle out?

    One can only hope so, plus it'd be hilarious if he got beaten

    "Headlining in Vegas is a dream come true, not just for me, but for any fighter who grew up watching the sport of boxing," said Benn. "Vegas has been the stage for many legends before me, and I can't wait to step into that arena on February 3rd against the undefeated Welterweight Peter Dobson,

    This guy really is on another planet
