    Strange first round. Not obviously feeling each other out, both tried to look aggressive but most of those punches were thrown from miles outside of range. That was feeling each other out without explicitly doing it imo.

    Benn will be the happier I reckon.
    2 down and Benn must be happier as he lands big there

    Benn rocked Eubank in the 3rd - Benn ahead for me at the moment

    I dont think Eubank will win this, he looks so slow so far.

  5. #4084
    Can Benn keep up this work rate and movement?

    You have to think if Eubank can weather this for 5 or 6 rounds he'll come into it as it slows and calms and the size advantage might count.

    Good fight so far.

    How the fight was predicted to go so far, Benn the lighter naturally, quicker, and came out guns blazing. Suspect he’ll tire and struggle in later rounds if he doesn’t get the KO.

    3-1 Benn in rounds for me after 4.

    What's the deal with this rehydration clause I hear them talk about on the radio? They said Eubank was 160lb at one weigh in and then 9lb heavier at the final weigh in.

    Not sure I understand all that.

    Clause put in that Eubank couldn't weigh anymore than 170 this morning, it's to stop him rehydrating right after the weigh in yesterday and bulking up

    Benn looking slow already. Eubank would just gobble the next 5 rounds up.

    How the hell do you put on 9lb in such a short space of time? Yes, I know bugger all about boxing 🙂

    Eubank landing some good shots now but Benn taking them well and still throwing back.

    Still open but I'd lean towards Eubank now. He's got the ability to box off the back foot that Benn really doesn't.

    I like Victor Loughlin but he's warned Eubank about hitting after the break about ten times now. Deduct a point or he's not going to stop.

    Was thinking the same, hes trying to not make the fight about him like some refs but between hitting after break and headlocks he must be near a point deduction .

    That was what you expect in the last 20 seconds off the 12th. Just a slugfest.

    Eubank gassed

    Bookies have Benn fav now.

    War of attrition from eubank here on in

  23. #4102
    All about heart now.

    It's close but momentum seems with Benn.

    Benn looking the stronger of the two at the moment - difficult to call this just now

    Cant split them

  26. #4105
    Thought Benn looked the stronger but that was some last minute from Eubank on the inside.

    If it goes the distance I hope there is no stupid scorecards. It's close and the cards should reflect that.

    Whoever wins its been a great fight.

  30. #4109
    Eubanks definitely trying to nick rounds in the last minute or so but Benn landed the best shot late on in that one.

    I have Benn by one going into the last but a few could have went either way. Very, very close.

    Great scrap that. Eubank won final 4 rounds for me and carries the momentum into the scorecards.

    Eubank by 1 for me.
