I heard he's been spending time at Ricky Hattons Gym and has already won then lost to Australias number one amateur in the past year.

He's looking like he's off to the next Olympics and can fight for Great Britain or Barbados as that's Nigels "home country" says Conor on his twitter page.

What do you think?


The next Olympics ? You sure about that ? Next Olympics is under a years time. Getting on the GB Olympic boxing is no joke. Getting into the Olympics boxing tournament is not a straight forward thing either. There is a certain criteria you have pass b4 you get entry. They don't allow anyone in.

I don't know what Conor Benn's amateur pedigree is, but he better get a move on, if he plans on going to Rio and even then it's up the GB selectors and he has to be the best at his weight and that's gonna be a judgement call.



Not too sure of the selection process to be honest i' just posting what i've read about Conor lately, and let's be honest he could probably walk into the Barbados team
