    That is embarrassing. Why did they bother. Game changed Kugs.

    I said something about this before but got called a hater by some of the IFL/Matchroom/boxing social/eggs innit fan boys. Eddie reels of the big schedule on the interviews, we are in this city this weekend, that city next weekend and list's a lot of glamorous sounding US / Mexico cities which makes everything to the casual audience seem amazing - what isn't mentioned Is the amount of these shows that are small hall / hotel function rooms. This after ridiculing other promoters if they ever use York Hall.

    I actually think that all the trouble we have experienced in the last year has made Conor Benn an even bigger name. Believe that quite a few have seen Conor Benn this morning (like myself).

    By the way : I feel sorry for Sandy Ryan. She was cheated for the victory after an excellent effort. Let's hope Eddie Hearn arranges the rematch as soon as possible.

    Yet the words you used was "Both of those were bang out of order especially the ginger, however Benn literally doubled in size and power"

    There is not much interest in the US for Matchroom's US events, so there is no reason to rent places where it is expensive.

    I was talking about Fury and Canelo. Canelo was banned (not for long enough though) and Fury should have been.

    Go and update your blog on Conor Benn. You are an idiot who has clearly never boxed.

    Me too, can't beat a function room white collar show, pre fight meal, post fight charity auction. Seen a couple of mates fight in these shows, few beers, bit of a laugh

    Difference is Fury and Canelo took the standard approach. Give your bull**** reason (uncastrated boar / Mexican tacos), quietly serve your ban and then get on with it.

    Benn gave his bull**** reason (eggs) but then started acting like he was above everyone and everything and started bringing the whole sport into disrepute. Obviously topped off by fighting in a different country before he was allowed to in the UK. A stain on boxing.

    Gave me hope I could get to see a World Title fight in the village hall next door at some stage.

    They do a cracking ploughman's for lunch

    Pity Nigel Benn did not stain the duvet instead of landing on Connor's egg.

    And to think they take the mick out of shows at York Hall? Or the weird show where Dubois fought Bryan?

    To be fair that Dubois/Bryan show looked like an wedding after party
