The minute I smell a bit of blood, I’m on him like a rash.”īenn vs. I’ve just got to go in there and leave my stamp. I’m very confident in my ability and everything we have been working on. I believe I’m world level, and I should beat people like Chris Algieri with ease. We need these fights to test the waters and see where I’m at. He’s 37 and he looks after himself, but I’m preparing for a prime Chris Algieri and I believe he is going to bring absolutely everything. You’ll always get criticised for who you fight. It’s a Christmas cracker, that’s what it is. I continue to prove myself every single time whoever they put in front of me. I’m knocking on the door for a World Title and I believe in 2022 is going to be my year to take on some of these World Champions. When I first turned pro, everyone thought I was Southern Area level at best, then it was British and best and then European. I believe there’s a lot left for me to prove, not to anyone else, but to myself. “I’m ranked in the top 5 with the WBC and the top 10 with the WBA and IBF. I’m a student of the game and school is never out. Before you know it, you’re reaching new PB’s. Every camp I have I don’t think I could push my body any more, but I manage to.

He said that he had to knock Britain’s ‘golden boy’ out to win but he got on his bike. He didn’t come to fight he didn’t even come to win. “Granados gave it all the talk and we thought he was going to come to fight. That’s my objective and I’ll get it done. I’m not paying attention to who’s there, it’s me and my opponent and I’m going in there to iron him out. It could be Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse sitting ringside for all I care. “You hear people say that they fight for the crowd and need a crowd. “The Formella and Vargas fights were great experiences for me because they showed me that I’m a fighter,” said Benn. The 25-year-old Essex native sent out a brutal warning to his Welterweight rivals by wiping out Samuel Vargas inside the opening round at the Copper Box Arena in April, living up to his nickname as he took just 1 minute and 20 seconds to viciously halt the durable Colombian.īenn was left frustrated by the tactics employed by Adrian Granados after widely outpointing the Mexican-American in their rescheduled clash in Leeds but the rising star is expecting a much tougher assignment against the USA’s former WBO Super-Lightweight ruler Algieri (25-3, 9 KOs) this weekend. ‘The Destroyer’ (19-0, 12 KOs), who has made incredible improvements under Tony Sims, is one of the hottest talents in world boxing following an impressive run of standout wins that have skyrocketed him into World Title contention in the ultra-competitive 147lbs division.
