I hope Avaneysan wins and wins well, and then totally rips into Connor Benn. Benn has called out the World and his wife, but never once mentioned the name of the guy who stopped a highly rated Josh Kelly in his tracks.
If Benn wants respect, Avaneysan is his next move. But clearly he doesn’t fancy the job.

[Master]

Avanesyan starts aggressively as a southpaw in the first round and stops Metz.

He is vicious and would wipe Benn away.

david won well

[Master]

Warren wants winner of Spence v Ugas or Connor Benn.

[TIC]

david is well above conors level

david deserves it

Agreed but Eddie and Benn will avoid it. Do not blame them but would love to see it.

Sheeraz on next.

[Master]

Sheeraz using his height and reach advantage in the opening round to knock down Smith. Good start.

[TIC]

strange we heard nothing from vitali on david

[Master]

Sheeraz stops Smith in the 2nd round. Dominant performance after a poor performance in his last fight.

[Primo Carnera]

So I just checked Conor Benn’s Twitter page , and he hasn’t called Avaneysan out yet! Hmmmmm

[Master]

Avaneysan will have to win a world title before Benn will accept a fight. At least it keeps Conor humble and quiet for a bit.

Even then Benn won’t want it. Benn wants the Money and titles too easy . He knows (and so does Eddie more importantly) he loses and that’s the last stop on the gravy train.
