Fans going overboard calling it a great fight, boring for 6 or 7 rounds then a bit more action with the last two especially being more fun, but very sloppy, too much punches being smothered up close. Didn't score but eubank won a lot of the middle rounds and definitely the last two, more of an argument for him winning than the cunt benn.

Both should be looking at the rematch, easy money and not sure world level would be good for benn and eubank is definitely past it.

The last round was sensational.

Had a couple quid on a eubank 12th round stoppage so was annoyed benn didn't get stopped after he got rocked a bit in that round but he did well to get through it.

Exciting last round.

An embarrassment for Eubank
Can't put away a "below British level" welterweight despite landing that many punches.

I’ve rewatched the fight with no sound and 116-112 is definitely fair. Eubank is years past his best plus clearly being affected by the unfair rehydration clause clearly won the fight on heart and determination, his legs were gone for the last few rounds. Hearn claimed Benn was world class
Benn showed great heart and determination, but his footwork is poor and I lost count of the number of wild Hail Mary shots he missed by miles with. Even his own dad was critical of this. Sky comms gave Benn the first round ??? WTF Do they realise you have to actually hit your opponent to score points ?

Well I thought it was a cracking scrap

The middleweight as was expected

[sennafan24]

They should agree to a rematch.

No chance either can win a legitimate world title, or make as much money boxing anyone else.

[Randall]

I had it 5 rounds to 3 with 4 even
I had it level after 10 but eubank won the last 2 easily
I can't see it as a 4 round difference

I would like to see Eubank at least have another crack at a legitimate world title. He would be the underdog at this stage in his career, but at least you know he would leave it all out there.

He would have always been the underdog, unless he was matched with a very weak champion.

Eubank being shot and dehydrated flattered him greatly.

Crawford, Ennis, Ortiz, and Madrimov wouldn't break a sweat against him.
