Benn looked the most dangerous in his fight vs Eubank Jr. He’s tough as nails and packs a serious punch. Folk are saying he should drop back down to 147 pounds and campaign. Since when has going down in two weight divisions ever served a professional boxer to their advantage? In my opinion he should compete in the hottest division of the sport which is at 154 pounds. Benn vs Murtazaliev is tantalizing. Benn vs Tszyu, Benn vs Fundora, Benn vs Ortiz Jr are all potential legendary match ups.
Dunno if he beats any of the current champions there, but he packs a decent punch and seems to have an alright enough chin and heart so he'd be in some fun fights at the very least.
154 is a pretty damn packed ATM. Of the current 154 champions - I can't see Benn beating Murtazaliev, let alone Crawford. However, Benn might have a chance against Fundora - I'd still favour Fundora though. 154 also has Vergil, Zayas, Bohachuk, Madrimov, Thurman who are all very good as well and I'd favour all of them to beat Benn.
Let me think Crawford, Murtazaliev, Bohachuk, Ortiz, Fundora, Madrimov. Tszyu, Xayas, Walsh, Sosulin It's a no from me. He might have a chance at 147 or 160 though
I dont see it. Even with him back on the juce he just isn't very good and so open for a decent boxer to pick apart.
Absolutely not. He's a dreadful boxer. That wild swinging against any elite level fighter will end up with him KTFO.
I keep reading people saying he packs a punch, but he doesn't. He's aggressive and can be relentless, he loves to throw power shots but I don't consider him a big puncher and without that power he won't get a belt. Simple.
