When Ben Edwards hits 'em they sure stay hit - as we've seen against Leuii & Hoppa. As Ben, a sometime poster here at ESB, has made it plain, there's more money in kickboxing for him than boxing. So it's pretty unlikely we'll see much more of him in the boxing ring.
He has a bit more than haymaker after haymaker. Thing is though he has to use these punches in KB more to get past the leg kicks. If Ben could make a buck from boxing he would focus on it and would be a lot crisper but not possible - all the attention seems to be on celebrity boxers.
if he fought often and was knocking guys out in rnd 1 mostly, he'd be a drawcard and would be on good money. just doesn't seem interested thats how it appears. he has copped some terrible leg blows before so i'm surprised he hasn't switched yet. he throws a heap more punches in his kickboxing bouts compared to kicks, especially compared to his opponents, so again i would think he'd switch sooner or later.
Just a bit of an update on the K-1 Oceania show , Bangin Ben Edwards won the lot with a devastating TKO of his nemesis The Sting Paul Slowinski.

Cheers for the info Perry. While you are there mate, you were the closest man to the 'action' between Mundine & Waters following the Jerez bout. Care to share your account of it with us?
Yeah, that's how it works mate - just some quick and easy, one line posts around the place and you'll soon get there.
