    DAZN desperately trying to find some big names in the crowd.

    Sounds like Benn is all over Eubank

    Could maybe have given eubank 1 round so far, at a push

     Eubank hasn't really got going yet.

    Looks totally weight drained... said to a mate on his walk-in how gaunt he looked

    I'm trying to think of a sport with less intelligent commentators.

    I’ve enjoyed watching Eubank Jnr over the years but he is unrecognisable tonight’s. Whether he’s been ill, or drained himself making wait, he just looks a limp shadow of his former self. Really disappointing

    Two pretty unlikeable unlikeable characters, but Connor Benn is an off the scale wanker.

    Football commentators are pretty bad but boxing is worse. Most of them possibly have been hit in the head too many times.

    The bias is far too much. Embarrassing how much they glossed over the weight issues at 36 because the mantra is that they need to promote Benn/Hearn.

    Such a dislikeable bloke but can't help but admire his and his teams ability when it comes to marketing

    Reminds me of Crawford - Canelo but at a much worse scale. 

    Commentators so desperate to crown the 'new guy' but it's obvious that there are other factors at play. 

    Benn is being managed well by Hearn but he'll get a very quick wake-up call when he fights one of the top guys.

    However bad eubank has been. Didn't think Benn had this in him... been a masterclass tbf

    Why is he, you clown?

    116 - 110 is an absolute fucking disgrace. That's utterly laughable. If you're GENEROUS you gave round 3 as 10-10

    How is boxing STILL putting up with this shit? 🤣

    How they could even give 1 round to Eubank I have no  idea.

    Coming from Brighton, I know that the majority of the Eubank family are absolute wankers, so I’m very happy to see the result.

    How anyone can think Benn is the wanker when he's fighting Eubank I've no idea

    Especially with the 2 knockdowns in round 12.

    Thought Eubank spoke with a lot of class there.

     Intrigued of the story behind why he was so weak, ponderous and poor tonight. 

    Fair play to Benn but he’s not the Canelo the commentators were describing. He was facing a lame duck tonight

    Nice to see Eubank giving credit and not making excuses. He hinted that getting to the weight has been a problem, doubt there will be a 3rd fight as he won’t go through the slimming down process again.

    He looked unwell tonight, saw an interview a while ago where Snr was warning him not to go through the weight loss again, he’s been proved right. Jr looked so listless throughout that there has to have been a genuine concern that he could have been seriously hurt. With twins on the way suspect he might walk away.

    A drug cheat that has his promoter tie his opponent up in weight draining clauses perhaps? 

    Cannot wait for Benn to fight some of the top guys at Welter. Something tells me that won't happen and they'll find a paper champion instead.
