He did not say who he had ever fought in a fight against pressure during his nine-year career, because it is his first real fight against a semi-top fighter, although on the older side at 36. Benn intensifies for the first time in his long career.
“I live this”
Conor experienced a fairly easy race with the promoter Eddie Hearn, keeping him at the domestic level and not putting him in the agitated sea where he could have been beaten several times by the candidates at 147.
Benn’s last four victories:
- Peter Dobson
- Rodolfo Orozco
- Chris Van Heerden
- Chris Algieri
There are a lot of question points about these two fighters because none of them has in fact defeated anyone. Eubank Jr’s career is based on victories on an old James Degale and Liam Smith. The two were in the middle of the thirties and far from what they were in the past when he fought them. These guys have never been the cream of the harvest when they were at the zenith of their career.
“I think Conor feels pressure and warmth. I think he will fill him much more in a few days,” said Chris Eubank Jr. Final press conference for his fight against Conor Benn.
“No pressure. I live for that. I lit the fire 100 times in my head,” said Conor Benn, who has never fought a world class opponent during his nine -year career. “I am delighted to enter and put my hands on him on Saturday evening. All these garbage he speaks. We are not at school. Come on Saturday evening, I can put my hands on him. ”
Ring display
The fans wondered today Why the Ring magazine belt was displayed Between Eubank Jr. and Benn during their confrontation for the last press conference today.
Usually, the Ring magazine belt is supposed to be involved involving two excellent fighters in a weight class. EUBANK JR. (34-3, 25 KB) and BENN are not among the best at 160 or even nearby.
Fans on social networks asked for the logic of the belt of the ring between these two. They consider it to create a false media threshing to ensure that the two fighters appear to be the best, especially for occasional fans who do not know the level at which these two work. It’s like having military ribbons with a pile of fruit salad [ribbons] displayed in front of a private first class. It gives a false impression to the non-informed. There should not be a belt on the line for Eubank Jr-Benn, because none of them won it.
If the Ring magazine belt is exposed concerns more brand image and promotional efforts, it would be good to let fans know. Otherwise, it gives the impression that this belt will be won for the Eubank Jr-Benn fight. It would be a sad joke because none of these fighters could compete with the unified champion of average weights Janibek Alimkh
