Yes I box, albeit not professionally rathr as a craft, but I ain't gonna sit here and tell you that I'm a hero because I step through those ropes and fight If you train properly and learn how to defend yourself,then you are not putting yourself at a huge risk getting in the ring. And conor fighting some down town bums, doesn't make him a hero. Ive seen better sparring fights in my gym than what he's delivered so far and he's co headline ppvs. Nepotism is the heart of the problem here inside boxing and the boxing fans don't bat an eyelid when they have to pay ppv prices to watch some kid fight and struggle against some other bum all because of his old man's name. If his name was Connor Scott, the judges would have given the victory to the bald headd guy because he was actually landing the cleaner punches.
Exactly, the style he fights with means he will e in a lot of tough tear ups with guys he should deal with easily. Hes already said he doesnt want to fight technically. He would rather go toe to toe which should make him very popular if he can get through the ranks.
He will get knocked out and go back home to Australasia you cant play Boxing seen better 12 year olds ... that style of fighting you need power and sadly for young Benn he doesn't have any..
Yep I can see this happening to him very soon when he steps up and fights even a journeyman. [yt]Ii9olgtpwYo[/yt]
What tricks are they then, partner? Anyway I hope you and your friends have been keeping out of trouble.
I saw his 2nd fight. And it was terrible,yes he is certainly a Bum. He has to improve on absolutely everything... so he might as well retire, he has no chance of success as a boxer.
He is a 19 year old with virtually no amateur experience and is learning on the job as a professional. I personally haven't been impressed with him yet but why are you be so bitter towards him? what has he actually done to upset you? He is using his given surname to boost his profile and make a few quid, good luck to him, I hope he earns a fortune, why would I begrudge him earning money? He hasn't harmed anybody, isn't a criminal, seems a nice lad, so what's your problem?
