We don’t usually do fight predictions anymore but we’re going to break the rules for a Eubank Jr vs Benn fight prediction at Boxing News and Views.
What a journey it has been for Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn in the sport.
Two warriors and improving fighters still.
Most think Eubank Jr will flatten Benn and on the face of it, yes, Conor Benn is the underdog.
A big underdog.
But who cares about that, boxing doesn’t work like that.
It never did nor ever will.
This is the fight business.
Both know anything can happen but if Benn uses his speed, angles and can survive an early onslaught, he can win.
Some even tipping him to win by knockout but we think if Conor Benn is going to win, it will be by a bit of boxing and fighting done clever.
We’ll go with a Benn points win on Saturday but caveat emptor, let the buyer beware.
Anything can happen in professional boxing.
