    If Garcia is all there mentally he flattens Benn.

    Depends on which Garcia turns up he’s very inconsistent the best version is a level above Benn

    Tune in to see what happens when Eggs are scrambled, boiled, fried and poached all at once.

    If Garcia turns up in any kind of half decent shape this is an oblitaration many will enjoy

    It's a joke that Benn has a title shot at a weight he hasn't fought at for what is it? 4/5 years?

    The guy has never faced a genuine live opponent. Hope he gets a sustained beat down

    Baffling day and time to announce a fight featuring their marquee English fighter.

    Nobody here would have paid any attention so close to a World Cup semi-final featuring England. So much for Zuffa being a marketing and promotional powerhouse.

    Should be levels between them but Benn is pretty gutsy and could make it interesting.

    Benn looked below average VS an injured, old, Prograis.. Had has to get on the gear to be beat well faded fighters like Algeri.
    Garcia should smash him up, Benn is pretty fast handed but Garcia is faster - still not sure how he lost to Romero though so its not one to put the house on. But Luke Campbell, Duarte, Barrios are all levels above Benn so Garcia should be a big favorite

    Surely no British fans are going to travel to Vegas for this. Benn is not a likeable person and comes across like right knob when in front of the media.

    Always thought Garcia was overrated and would be found out when facing elite fighters such as Davis.

    Luke Campbell also showed 5 years ago that Garcia is there for the taking.

    Benn needs to be in eggcellent shape, let the hands go from the first bell and he could make an early dent in Garcia.

    Should Garcia hit the canvas, Benn needs to follow up with his usual 100 missing punches within 30 secs onslaught hoping the ref waves the fight off.

    When Benn loses, he will start talking about money ‘securing kids future’ **** like that not the legacy talk he used to spit out while he was with Eddie.

    guys a fraud and a ****.

    There is little more I would like to see in a boxing ring than the odious Benn getting beaten from pillar to post and stopped. However I see enough deficiencies in Garcia that makes me fear Benn will be able to continue his fraudulent reign; Garcia is very hot and cold, he isn't particularly hard to hit, when he does get hit he seems easily flustered, and he will be dramatically outsized by Benn. It is very much possible Benn gets the better of this one as awful as it may seem.

    Best fight out there for Benn really.

    Ryan is inconsistent enough that Benn has a chance, but it probably needs COVID Conor against the worst version of Garcia. If Ryan settles, Benn gets outboxed, broken down or knocked out, depending on what version turns up.

    That said, at 3/1 I’d say Benn is actually the value bet, not Garcia, although I hope Ryan beats him down and then flattens him, much like Eubank did to his old man in the first fight.
