    Benn ran him over in 2. I just saw how spence was badly hurt against ugas, if that was benn it would have been night night spence.

    It took Kevin McBride a few rounds to dishearten and stop Mike Tyson.

    Therefore Kevin McBride is clearly an ATG HW world superstar

    Mcgregor slapped up Van Heerden in sparring and that was a prime version. Mcgregor future champ confirmed

    So? Does that mean Benn could beat spence? Triangle theories dont mean **** in boxing.

    Not a relevant comparison but I agree that Benn have been impressive, I would like him to step up in his next fight.

    Spence got rocked by Lartey and Ugas.

    If Crawford hurts him, Spence is getting stopped.

    Spence would systematically batter and stop Benn.

    I remember the good ol' days when the only overhyped son of a former star we had to be annoyed by was Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.

    At the time I couldn't stand it, but I'd trade all this Campbell Hatton Conor Benn NICO ALI trash for "The Legend Continues"

    Spence is not a good puncher, he`s just heavy handed due to his size, his body mechanics are poor, he`d be destroyed at 154 and Benn`s father would have sparked him in a couple of rounds at 160 in his prime.

    Benn did what had to be done and did it in an impressive manor.

    Let's not kid ourselves though, Spence is levels above Benn and I say that as Benn fan and someone who thought Porter edged Spence.

    Hopefully Hearn and Benn are good to their word and Benn steps up and fights one of the rumoured guys in Broner, Hooker, Brook, M.Garica, D. Garcia, Thurman and Avanesyan next (all which would be Benn's best career win to date).

    But Crawford was dropped by Mean Machine....being dropped is worse than being rocked.

    Benn has actually done better vs all the common opponents he shares with Spence

    Samuel Vargas TKO1

    Spence TKO 4 Vargas

    Benn KO 4 Algieri

    Spence TKO5 Algieri

    Benn TKO 2 Van Heerden

    Spence TKO 8 Van Heerden

    Granted Spence fought younger fresher versions of them but by the same token Benn just hits harder than Spence

    E-Hearn has got Benn on a puncher/legit banger avoiding tour too though so it's no surprise they share these featherfist common opponents

    Many of Spence's opponents are on record saying that career 140 pounders or naturally smaller fighters they've fought hit harder than him

    Algieri said natural 140 pounder Manny hits harder than him

    He also said 140 pounder Ruslan hits way harder than him

    Both Mikey and Peterson said 140 pounder Lipinets hits harder than Spence

    Lo Greco said Khan hits harder than him

    Danny said 140 pounder Lucas and 147 pounder Thurman hits harder than Spence and from his reaction you could tell he thought it wasn't even close
