    I much prefer Dillian Whytes style of failing, just keep your mouth shut.

    Seeing drugs cheats like Benn and AB is pretty mind blowing. The arrogance is off the scales.

    I don't like the female US boxers. They all act like they are superstars. There is, however, a single exception : Mikaela Mayer. She is incredibly friendly and very sweet.

    I'm not sure which approach is worse, AB's arrogance towards it or Conors 'perpetual victim' script.

    Either way, utterly embarrassing - thankfully, ain't nobody buying it!

    I got a bit confused there.

    The only AB I recognise is the one that got bummed by Maidana

    I see Matchroom is offering an "exclusive presale" for the Benn trip to Vegas tonight. The seats aren't exactly being snapped up, despite not being all that many in the first place. $200 ringside.

    As Hearn would often say, he'll do his conkers on that show for sure.

    I guess that's why Johnny Fisher is on the show. Conor Benn is not selling any tickets.

    Why do some people insist in still calling him 'kid'. He turns 29 next year ffs! He's in the second half of his career now

    Doubt their is another walk of life in which anyone over the age of 18/19 is referred to as 'kid'. Yet every other interview is 'he's a great kid' or 'what this kid has been through koogs'

    .....and I thought politicians spoke rubbish

    I know of scams with Vada testing so I don't know how much value to put into it...?

    It doesn't take much to avoid being tested positive.

    Same reason Eubanks Jnr will always be known as the Young Warhorse lol.

    I think it's because they're in their dads' shadows.

    Chris Jnr is older than Canelo.

    And Benne Jnr is around the same age as Benavidez, Ennis, Teofimo, Shakur etc. He's also a couple of years older than Haney.

    None of the above are still treated as "kids".

    Embarrassing isn't it. Mind you, Matchroom did a Next Gen headlined by a young, raw 31 year old last year so nothing surprises me anymore
