Re: Thoughts on Connor Benn
He clawed victory from the jaws of defeat in a fight he had no real business winning after the start he had so lets give the bloke some props for that.
He got caught square for the first knockdown and that pretty much rubber stamped it as carnage from that point on. There's no boxing your way back into it when you drop a 10-7 opener in a 6 round fight, knockdowns aside you cant draw level until the penultimate round and Benn's not got that game anyway. There's zero margin for error.
He looked poor, no zip to his work. He got out of jail, learn from it.
