How about this for Benn next ? Eddie could sell it as the guy who beat Avanesyen who Benn seems to be avoiding, probably too dangerous as Kavaliauskas was giving Ortiz and Crawford a good fight for a few rounds
There is just no way that given where Matchroom is now as a promotional company that they take that kind of risk. No ****ing way. Lets just be realistic here. They are going to be ultra ultra ultra cautious with the matchmaking. Anyone with even an area code chance of winning wont be fighting Benn for at least another 2 years.
Big Benn fan but this a bad match up for Benn. Kavaliauskas stops him late in my opinion. I believe Benns next opponent will be one of Hooker, Crowley, Broner or M.Garica (all winnable but risky fights for Benn).
Conor Benn is already a global superstar and Matchroom does not want him to lose that position. Going forward, it will be very carefull match making
He’s referring to Conor’s campaign to eventually reach the number 1 contender status for the WBO Global belt.
Mean Machine would destroy Benn after a few rounds of the Sky commentary team trying to make you believe that he's well in the fight and getting on top when the odd shot lands
Agreed I think the plan will be to wait for some of the elite level WW to either move up, retire or get old. Then get Benn a world title or two but only if its a gimme then possibly, POSSIBLY put him in with a live opponent on PPV for a cash out
