Since when did you care about rules? Ben does Hearn yet again. G'wan Shalom. This content is protected
could be loads of context to this that Nigel is purposely leaving out had scull just started his camp seeing as he’s fighting a month later? Had scull just got into the country? also I find it funny that Benn is sparring Bentley sourace and scull so even in sparring he’s not taking on big punchers just like his whole career makes you think don’t it lol.
Bellew v Haye was the last time Hearn was rattled at a press conference, and it's a similar situation here. If Benn loses and it's not competitive, there is no PPV rematch, and he has no choice but to feed Conor to Ennis. He hopes and likely prays that Jr's chin and resistance are gone and that Conor jumps on him from the outset and catches him cold; otherwise, it's another cash cow milked dry. I don't think Hearn ever switches off, which is probably why his wife isn't that concerned that he's away most of the time and is likely engaging in extracurricular activities with his favourite fighter. Benn, though, did look a lot sharper and quicker than Eubank on the pads at the live workout. The icing on the cake will be if Snr randomly pops up at the press conference later.
No idea how cycles work, but you can guarantee he was popping PEDs like Smarties before they signed up for VADA testing.
Ive got 2 coach travel tickets from Leeds to Tottenham Stadium return the same night if anyone is interested ?
Hearn has had a nightmare this fight build up. Even Shalom, who was seen as a bit thick & dull beforehand has run rings round him. Looking forward to it now tbh. Just landed in Lanzarote for a week so will get holed up in a sports bar Saturday night and hopefully see Benn get carried out on a stretcher. Enjoy fellas!
Eubank being hilarious in the final press conference once again. Eddie getting talked off stage by him was the highlight. No idea who the Ring Magazine representative was, but he was gunning the promoters and telling them that the shows they put on are rubbish
You can tell that guy totally rattled Hearn. This whole stuff about the sparring is turning into a nonsense. You’d think by the way Nigel is talking Benn flattened Scull and KO’d the other two as well. Notice neither of Sims or Nigel have indicated there was even a knockdown scored by Benn. Who knows, Scull might well have been totally out of shape. Sounds to me it was simply an even spar with Scull not being told about Benn’s preference for 40 second rests and Scull lacking in fitness. It’s classless to talk about sparring at all but I could understand it if Conor Benn actually knocked out Scull or flattened him. He didn’t so it’s all just pantomime.
