I really hope the Pacquiao fight doesn't happen. He could end up seriously hurt fighting a much younger guy. Shame on you Hearn and Benn!
What does Hearn think he's going to do with Benn outside of the UK? He's not a big name who the casuals will have heard of and hardcore fans will know he's only fighting abroad because he's a drug cheat. No one will care about the fact he's Nigel Benn's son. No one will be interested in watching him knock over washed up 40 somethings, but then they can't put him in with any of the actual top dogs because he will get battered. Just shows how desperate Hearn must be that he's still sticking with his fake, manufactured hype job even as it's all coming crashing down around him.
Jeff Horn beat him a few years ago and remained a very small business. Benn beating up an old man will be seen for what it is by the Global Public.
The fight will be big just because it's a Pacquiao fight. Nothing to to with Benn being a draw at all. It's like the Mayweather exhibitions. Nobody watches them for the opposition
The last exhibition was a failure Flloyd is smart enough to get his required fee up front and anything on top is a bonus
