    I think Connor has the potential to achieve more in the sport than Eubank ever will regardless of clever match making but he simply doesn’t have the height and therefore reach to ever trouble Eubank.

    More smoke and mirrors from the most protected fighter in Britain. A fight at 147 against someone who can punch their weight before engaging in fantasy matchups on Twitter would be lovely.

    cedric peynaud into next week , think benns a better boxer than eubank , but not as tough and think he will be found wanting in the whiskers department , almost exactly the same as there fathers in that respect . benn had more talent and bigger puncher , eubanks punch resistance was the main advantage over benn when they fought

    Please do it Connor! I would love to see your face get punched in.
    But those are just words.

    Try fighting Avenesian first for an actual worthwhile belt !...

    Mayweather started all this stupid **** off doing exhibition bouts !... Now we have ppv fights with rugby players v washed boxers and YouTubers v nobodies

    eubank vs benn in the title would automatically interest loads of older casual fans including people who haven't watched boxing since the days of their dads! Imagine the publicity it would get!

    If at a weight Eubank can safely make then he would batter him. Better and tougher

    No chance of this happening, Conor just wants a few headlines and some free promotion for his next fight.

    He's a small ish 147 who had to spend years in the gym to not look totally frail at welter weight, Eubank Jnr would destroy him.

    Weight classes exist for a reason, yes of course fighters go up and even down in weight but this is a Brooke vs Golovkin type mismatch.

    Eubank has held his own at super middle that's 3 weight classes above, too big a size and power gap regardless of any catch weight.

    I don’t like Eubank but even he is more likeable than that jumped up little *****, and he would annihilate him for what it’s worth
