Ben sells himself short by allowing ppl to compare him to nasser He is way above nasser after all nasser stole his whole act right down to the leopard pants from the USA drunken master🥴

[@bluegreendottedlines]

Emmanuel forgot his last name lest we forget the first drunken boxer to teach the Mayweather camp!!

[@sutters7251]

Yep great fighter. Ben obviously pays homage to Emanuel. With his height it’s even more impressive that he’s able to slip at close range like Emanuel. One important thing to note is that unlike Emanuel Ben has the power to knock fighters out.

Wow, Ben is the most prolific speedster and technician I've ever seen in boxing. Never before have I ever seen someone move this fast, able to anticipate any punch at lighting speed, and at lightning speed head and body movement in any direction? And to counter punch at insane speed at any angle or body position, using what I think is an unmatched skillset of everything possible in a boxing arsenal? His so bloody good, he can fool around and never miss a beat, step, footwork, punch, combination, elite in every way. Ain't never seen anyone as good and as fast as this in a while. This is bullet dodging type speed I tell you.

oh shit a new upload! excellent video my dude

[@genzboomer-sv3pl]

dude is disrespectful af in the ring🤣

[@michelhese9417]

its called "drunken master style" . as you can see in the video, that he comes from light heavy weight where dodging and fighting fast is usual. Some fighters mock/insult his opponent in interviews to get in their head, other do this while fighting and some try to clown the enemy infight to make him angry and when youre angry you make mistakes. its all part of the show and his fighting style. i personally think arrogant dodging is not that disrespectful, cause its part of the game. its a high risk/reward technique, cause when it works your enemy looks like an idiot and cant focus, but when it dont youre be knocked out pretty fast. even muhammed ali did this in some fights, just dont underestimate your enemy. if you see he's slower or tired and you mock him with dodging, he will lose focus and lose.

[@THE-CHAMPION-HAS-A-NAME]

I don't knowhow but I've never heard of this dude until this video. I mean I'm not a die hard boxing fan like I am with mma but this dude was showing everyone up like crazy. You can tell he got a little more serious and technical about it as time went on, but just like sean o'malley he can't handle a loss. We'll have to see if that has improved any if he does happen to lose. The fights were getting harder but he's also young and always getting better so who knows.

Still, I hope he lasts, like I said, I like his style; it is just too common for these type of fighters to last long, in fact he has ALREADY lasted longer than most.
