Promoter Eddie Hearn says he thinks his warrior, Conor Benn, will have an advantage over Chris Eubank Jr. As for his youth and freshness for the re -broadcast. The most important success Benn, 28, had last Saturday, was in the first three rounds.
Benn fought against eubank jr. (35-3, 25 food) lost with a unanimous 12-round decision by the scores 116-112 x 3 last Saturday night at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. The two already have a contractual re -broadcast. Benn (23-1, 14 food) has already said that the rematch will be even more of a war. It may be, but Conor is not doing well.
After eubank jr. In Round Four changed its style by moving inward, Benn was helpless the rest of the night. He seems to lose every round of four.
The rematch can be more the same with eubank jr. Neutralize Benn’s speed and power by fighting on the inside. This is something that will not change, no matter how many times they fight. Conor is the type that must be at a distance to generate power and speed on its shots. On the inside, he is not more powerful than eubank jr.
The youth factor?
“I think we are an advantage in the rematch in terms of our freshness. It took a lot of both men, but Conor is still young. He is now back in the gym, and Eubank has taken a large amount out of him, ‘promoter Eddie Hearn said Box sociallyand given an update on Conor Benn after his loss of Chris Eubank Jr. Last Saturday night.
It doesn’t matter if Benn is young. Hearn talked about Devin Haney who may be worn from his last fight against Ryan Garcia.
Haney, 26, is two years younger than 28-year-old Benn. He did not hit Ryan as many times as Conor did in his loss of eubank jr. After what he went through in that battle last weekend, he’s not going to be fresh for the re -broadcast.
“They both signed for the re -broadcast. This is one of the reasons why we entered into the agreement because we knew it was too battles and all the conditions were the same,” says Hearn. “I said at the press conference that you should be on the lookout for your husband. You don’t want too many battles because it takes it out on you. ‘
Limited alternatives
Benn has no other wonderful options for big payday fights, and it is perhaps his only chance to get another huge pay day. He is not going to make similar money against Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis.
Guys like Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia probably won’t be interested in fighting Benn if he loses again against Eubank JR. He will have to prove himself at 147 by beating Ennis, WBO champion Brian Norman Jr., or WBC belt holder Mario Barrios. Conor’s chances against those champions are slim. He can’t pull out another older fighter and make big money.
Eubank jr. Is 35, and Benn’s other recent striking opponents were also old. Chris Algieri is 37 years old. Chris van Heerden 37, Adrian Grandos 35 and Samuel Vargas 36. Conor has been fighting for years against older fighters, and eubank jr. Is just another example.
Benn’s Resolve
“I said to Conor,” Maybe you can look at 147. “He looked at me and said,”If you think the fight was a war, wait until you see the re -broadcast. ‘I feel like the inactivity is not a factor right now (for Benn), the more comfortable around that weight, we are very confident with the re -broadcast. It will be brutal again, ”Hearn said.
“We signed for that. Eubank has signed for that, and we expect it to happen. Canelo is a different animal than eubank is at 168. Conor Benn is a world-class weller weight. Canelo-Eubank will not end well. And if I’m eubank, I’ll keep my chances in the rematch more. And he’s likely to pay more money to fight Benn than fighting Canel, ‘Hears said.
