"It's an OUTRAGE!" 😱 Simon Jordan GOES IN on Eddie Hearn following Conor Benn incident! 🔥

[@PST101]

This obsession with the KO is completely overplayed. Why? Why is it a given? Franklin has never been down in his life. Whyte and AJ both caught him with heavy shots and he proved that he has a solid chin. Sometimes it just doesn't happen. Deontay Wilder who is the heavyweight division's KO artist, went 12 rounds with Bernane Stiverne and couldn't KO him. Fury went 12 rounds with Francesco Pianetta 3 months before Wilder. Where was the outrage then? KO's just doesn't always come. Why force it and jeopardise the W when you're comfortably winning the fight?

[@x12-y8v]

None of them 2 looked scared out their skin of what was coming back and looked that way for a number of fights. Relax.

[@PST101]

@@x12-y8v really? No one said this after Usyk 2. AJ went for it in the later rounds and was getting tagged constantly. Didn't look scared to me. But I appreciate people ignore that that as it doesn't fit the 'scared' narrative. Let me guess, 'he hasn't been the same since Ruiz 2'. But we'll ignore the Pulev KO... all while he was 'scared of getting hit' of course. He has been defensive agreed, but against fighters who have hands as quick as his. The opportunity to KO Franklin simply wasn't there. You don't just go and have a shootout with someone and hope you're on the right side of the 50/50. Maybe a possibility in the last round, but again, why jeopardise the W at that stage of the fight when your way ahead on the cards.

[@ursigns]

spot on best thing ive read all weekend, even AJ didnt give this reply, why put the W at risk when he was winning comfortably. well said mate.

[@TheHarrybo1]

I agree he caught him with some solid shots his chin is very good , For me tho Aj should have stopped him through the volume of shots I thought he was OK but was negative especially down the stretch, For me uysk of fury the towel would have gone in from Franklin's corner , AJ i feel has peaked, He doesn't deserve the hate hes getting tho its appalling from so called boxing fans .

i watched the fight, its not even arguable, AJ looked technically better, he done the basics better, hes jab, he threw more, but 75% into the fight he got a little cautious, however..... he looked better in terms of his fitness, he wasn't blowing like you usually see him in the corner after 6 rounds and he was heavier!, definitely more economical with his punches. he needs to throw combinations more though, but i was impressed, he just needs to get more of a killer instinct which is what i think hes lost since he got knocked out by ruiz.

[@andreastzanneskastritis4367]

He's 33 and only just got better at the basics? He's finished . Not elite. Never was. Been exposed and now wants to cash out.

Threw more? Your off your rocker.. one of the lowest punch output heavyweight fights I've seen in forever.

[@md247md]

Why does Simon call Franklin a journeyman? He isnt top 20, or seemingly a world beater, but it's not like he has lost a large percentage of his fights

[@lolade_akinola]

All these interviews with Simon and Gareth could be summed up in one sentence - regardless of what Benn has done... "Social media made you all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.” - Mike tyson

[@jmc4226]

Disrespecting people how? He says it as it is and the promoters and fighters don’t like the truth. He says a lot of things that fight fans say but our voices don’t get heard, his does and it hurts them!

There's saying things, and there's relentlessly trying to ruin someone's career/life Month upon month upon month.. Ask controversial questions - fine, challenge a view point once - fine.

@@jmc4226 define relentlessly, creating hundreds of articles and comments on a fighter over a 9month period? Doing everything they can to slander a person and alot of the time peddle gossiped lies? And then expect to stand infront of a fighters face and say alright mate can we chat and you give me views? Everybody in the limelight should have a difference of opinion challenged. But push someone and you dont expect them to push back or ignore you? Strange how Davies didn't ask any of the controversial questions to his face.

Very fair assessment from Simon 👏🏼

[@jameshodgkins559]

AJ is a great man lovely fellow . The call out to TF was the nicest call out in history. It doesn’t matter if they could magic up Angelo Dundee & Ray Arcel to train & be in AJs corner. It would be the same . The matchroom hype machine is grinding to a halt. It’s like the wizard of oz when he got exposed. In the end he was alright still. The other thing the hype do generate mega money. This do alter things, like judges scoring incorrect , refs not acting right, time keepers ringing early.

[@woodzrc3128]

It’s almost like Fury hasn’t fought for decisions against lower opposition. AJ looked way better against franklyn than Fury did against Wallin. AJ wasn’t as beaten and bloody and looking as fearful as fury did in that fight.

[@Si_Mondo]

With Wallin, Fury used his fear to his advantage. When AJ feels fear in the square circle, he is disadvantaged by it. Though Fury has made a prick of himself recently, he is still levels above AJ overall.

[@augustuspatrone6790]

Why don’t they ask Fury why he was banned for 2 years?

[@owendavis9254]

Because he wasn't..his case with Ukad dragged out for 2 years while Fury was retired. Educate yourself

[@markcurry1789]

It dragged out as he refused to deal with it. Went on a bender and claimed mental health

[@johndeighan2495]

Simon getting in his feelings again when the subject of Eddie Hearn comes up. Hearn has stated, on numerous occasions, that he didn’t “advise” Conor Benn. Does Simon have any real, factual information to the contrary? Simon is inhabiting a fantasy where he’s the caped crusader (credit GAD) and Eddie Hearn is the arch-villain. He’s getting more shrill and delusional by the day.

[@juliusc.8]

If Fury had the same performance people would be saying he's the next Ali and a masterful boxer. His defense has noticeably improved, a solid first outing with a new trainer. You have to be insane to nit pick a performance he won 10 rounds in.

[@jamielowe463]

Difference is now pal fury stops people aj doesn’t the rolls have reversed aj used to knock people out now he wants to box and move and fury now stops people

He won every single round. I don't see how anyone can score a round for Franklin to be fair. And AJ was never in trouble, not even once.

[@ИвенИванов-ъ4я]

@@jamielowe463 Which people Fury stops ? 40 years old his bud Chisora? He couldn't even drop him once. Chisora didn't even give it a try in the camp. He was so out of shape, it was unreal. Fury is featherfisted bum, who ducked all of top guys in the divsion. Now go to sleep.

[@juliusc.8]

@@jamielowe463 Fury wouldn't stop Franklin, he struggles against shorter fighters and most tall fighters including AJ do. Jermaine is a tough guy with good skills, I'm from the Ohio a state right across from Michigan. I've seen Jermaine in the amateurs and sparring never been buzzed or dropped.
