    Dobson by 7-5. Easy work. Benn is a journey man now; just a name on someone's record.

    Considering the way Benn behaved on the build up, he should be embarrassed. Dobson showed balls. Now you all know why Benn skipped British level.

    I'm the same mate, never seen Dobson before.
    With that being said it's not a great look for Conor considering it was a cherry pick.
    His old man would have folded a Dobson calibre fighter in a round or two, it is what it is.

    Benn looks average when he has to cut down to half a carton.

    Having to go the distance with a cherry pick he said he'd stop in the first round and Hearn said he had to get out of there, is embarrassing.

    Conor Benn's punching power is average at best when he's not pregnant

    Not sure how that's subjective but credit where it's due to Dobson he sure derailed Benn's fantasy.

    No drugs. No Benn.

    Is this some kind of a joke?

    No version of Benn would be remotely competitive against Boots, let alone Crawford.

    Fully agreed, Exo.

    You can see 'some' shades of Nigel in Conor, but that's about it.

    I'll give it to Conor that he lives the life, he defo tries. But he's a cheat too....
