    So weird. I was shocked that this early card was in Vegas

    It’s the other way round. Benn doesn’t have the pull to have a card at the normal times in Vegas. Pretty sure he’s fighting in a casino buffet hall.

    I get it if it's a Fury or Joshua fight, but this drug cheat doesn't deserve it. Quite frankly, I have no idea why the it's even being held in Vegas. If it's going to be this early, just have it in the UK. It's not like anyone gives a **** about Benn here anyway.

    Yeah, that was my feeling too. It's like they transported one of those ordinary afternoon Brit cards to Vegas for no apparent reason. Hell, Johnny Fisher brought his whole cheering section with him!!

    Way too many of these Boxxer and Matchroom cards are just not up to standard. Why is Conor headlining in the US in a fight nobody over there is interested in other than hardcores who will watch any live boxing?

    Williams does have very nice technique.

    All the punches seem sharp
