Netflix: Tyson Luke Fury vs. Arslanbek Ruslanovich Makhmudov & Conor Benn vs. Regis Prograis RBR.

Benn probably the fo

Benn is likely only the fourth-best welter in the country, behind Crocker, Catterall and Essuman, and I don’t think Walker or Donovan are gimmes either, especially Paddy.

 

Garcia makes Benn look silly

 

Benn is like me when I’m playing Undisputed on the PlayStation. The only shot I have is a hook to the head and if my opponent moves I’m clueless.

 

Paddy would stand Benn on his head.

 

Clearly an issue with Prograis leg or ankle.

I could see Benn getting him out there if he turns up the intensity if he lands a big shot, it does however show what we know, that Benn is no where near the top world class welters.

The difference in boxing IQ / skill is clear and Benn.

Benn has the youth and size, the best prime welters would just need to fight there own fight and be patient, it would really show the level Benn is actually at. I wouldn't ever write Benn off as he has decent speed and some respectable power.

 

Prograis from the first 30 seconds reminded me of Degale against Eubank when he was all over the place, no stability.

 

If Regis had his legs under him, he’d have knocked Benn out. There’s just no power being generated, even this version of Prograis.

 

The fact Benn is making hard work of this says a lot about his level.

 

Conor needs to get back on the juice sharpish.

 

Prime Taylor and Prograis would splalyyer Baby Benn all over the ring.

 

The commentary continually going on about Conor being a force in the Welterweight division despite fighting at 150lb against a 140lb guy.

 

He should retire for a few months.

 

I honestly hope the next fight is Garcia, because Ryan breaks him both in and outside the ring.

 

Is that Ronnie Wood at ringside ?

 

In fairness the chat has been along the lines of "the 154 division is watching" because they all want a pay day, I suspect they'll be queueing up if they're watching this.
