    Eubank was severely depleted in the first fight. He was a lot more so in last nights fight to the point he didnt have enough in the tank to even try to force it out.

    I actually thought benn to his credit...held back on Eubank.

    @Astro is the only person on here who I know is a loyal DAZN subscriber from day 1, most likely now a DAZN ultimate subscriber and a loyal PPV purchaser.

    I think Eubank wasn't prepared to go to the well like he did in the first fight due to the aftermath. He just had the announcement of twins and I assume the stay in hospital scared him straight. He said he knew he couldn't winin 1st round. I reckon he knew in camp.

    He's 100% correct I reckon there will be an angry call from Hearn :))

    His father was little different. They just stumbled into a very lucky era where there was a gap in the market, social media exploded and they were poised at the right time with marketable stars. It just went to their heads.

    Other than that, they've never been anything other than hype merchants who fill TV air time for money.

    you keep referencing the first fight , why do you think Benn and Hearn pushed for the rematch so soon? Because they knew Eubank going through another weight cut after the gruelling fight.

    The Eubank last night was happy to get his millions and let Benn have a win , his motivation and energy went into the first fight.

    Conor Benn is useless don’t be fooled, and if he wasn’t useless , he wouldn’t have took drugs.

    Gareth A. Davis looks like he's the leader of a camp motorcycle gang.

    I’d have 100x more respect for Hearn if he just said ‘Benn was young and stupid & he messed up’ rather than trying to gaslight people into believing he’s had mental health problems.

    It was all his own fault anyway for cheating. I'll save my sympathy for people that deserve it or ones that admit they've done wrong and repent, he's neither.

    Hearn put up an IG post with a bible verse. They are honestly insufferable people and I include Nigel Benn in that. The three of Nigel, Sims and Conor know exactly what they did. Nigel a career steroid and drug user, Sims a gangster and Benn following in the footsteps of his father in one of the most obvious steroid-enhanced improvements in boxing we have ever seen tbh.

    Don’t give it the whole bible basher men of god routine when we all know what you are.

    They have even nobbled Mickey Bluffer

    When announcing the winner, Bluffer come out with 'He has now defeated every fighter he has faced'.

    He has not beat anyone decent yet.
