    Benn's definitely improving fight by fight. I'm liking his sharp jab and left to the body.

    Benn got caught flush about 3/4 times towards the end of the round there, very reckless.

    I get that Formela is quite durable, but Benn has been planting his feet and loading up, Doesn't have his old man's power

    What a fantastic round. Benn has improved massively but he is still vulnerable. Formella round....first one

    Benn is still a KO waiting to happen imo.

    Takes too many flush being reckless.

    Ah but they won't put him in with a good counterpuncher with power though. Not for a very long time. Choo chooo

    Benn is a good watch but only a matter of time it ends in tears.

    Yep agree! He's also wasting so much energy, in a championship fight against a British level fighter, if he fought like this and couldn't get someone out of there, he would start to be in huge trouble.

    Should just concentrate on working behind the jab and his boxing skills.

    Very sloppy from Benn. The ego is taking over the brain unfortunately. Done well though

    Still maintain that Formella is a good boxer albeit featherfisted, Benn is just too awkward, athletic and powerful for him

    Thought Formella would of had enough pop to punish Benn.
