    Judges had it way too wide. I thought it was nip and tuck all the way, a draw wouldn't have been out of the question, it was a really close fight.

    Good fight overall, both showed a ton of heart, I wasn't that excited by this match up originally, but I would be excited now for a rematch.

    The Benn’s are not happy. Except for Ben Shalom.

    He becomes such a fanboy about some of his fighters that he's in genuine disbelief when they lose.

    You can tell he genuinely thought Conor Benn was a special talent.

    Solid fight from both. Not the highest level for sure, but fun as hell and one I wouldn't mind seeing again.

    Both showed tons of heart and can hold their heads high after that performance.

    Gotta love when the theater of the unknown turns something ridiculous on paper into a fun war like this! :ggg

    It was a meaningless fight but they both showed up and put on a show. I will admit I didn't think much of it when announced but they put on a show.

    Nah that was a good scrap. Might not have been elite level but they both performed well
