Dazn have just announced Benn vs Van Heerden for April. Couldnt make it up really. Van Heerden who hasnt fought since a NC in December 2020 and only top level opponent was KO loss to Spence.
Isn't he the south African fella that conor mcgregor slapped around in sparring. Hearn may as well roll out a corpse for Benn to punch at that rate. Terrible match making. What will Benn learn from that??
Another never has been dragged out of retirement to fight Conor Benn. This is whilst Hearn feeds McKinson to Virgil Ortiz, instead of making him v Benn.
Isn't that Oscar De la Hoya? Who have ironically ducked the WBC fight with Avenesyan to fight McKinson
The very same. Joke of a fight and pointless. No one minds these fights if you fight 6-7 times a year. When you fight 2-3 times they need to be meaningful
This fight is going to be incredibly hard to sell. Besides a little self-confidence, what does Conor Benn get out of taking this fight ? Is such a fight helping Conor Benn to develop as a boxer ?
De la Hoya and hearn will have been happy to make this as both promotions are with dazn and mckinson is top 5 in the wbo I think and highly ranked in others.tactical manoeuvre by matchroom and golden boy?
I'm not a fan of Benn, he's very annoying but he currently has a lot of momentum behind him and this fight sets him back. **** poor from Hearn.
Why is Connor benn fighting avanysan for the European title? avanysan is fighting a bloke next who’s never been past 8 rounds before
He learns nothing this will be a ko win for benn for hearn to hype to casuals another big ko win blah blah. Mr benn himself saying he's top 5 yet you fight heerden made himself look a right **** there . Bang average and has fought has beens or no one can punch wonder why. When he steps up he's going lose and lose badly
Casuals won't see this fight, it's on a bloody app ffs. If Benn has any ambition he's going to have to get onto TV, be it in America, or better for him, the UK. I'll be honest, I do like him and find him very entertaining, how high his ceiling is, I don't know, but I'm willing to enjoy the ride. But being on app will cost him $$$$ in the long run
