Drug allegations will never stop fight fans watching Conor Benn
Ebanie Bridges is a big admirer of Conor Benn’s aggressive style and she reckons most boxing fans aren’t overly concerned with allegations of doping hanging over him, as proven by the big numbers that tuned in to watch his recent win over Rodolpho Orozco;
“Everyone still tuned in to watch Conor [Benn] fight. They want to see him fight. He has proven his innocence so they’re still going to f**king watch it. Yeah, they’re going to slam him online but they’re still tuned in.”
Zhilei Zhang would be a recipe for trouble for Anthony Joshua
After dispatching Joe Joyce twice, ‘big bang’ Zhang is looking for his next opponent and Bridges thinks Anthony Joshua would be wise to keep his head below the parapet if the Chinese heavyweight comes looking for him;
“With the power he’s got and Joshua’s chin, that could be a recipe for trouble for AJ. I do think Joshua’s a bit more skilled, not as raw as Joe Joyce, but he’s also not as tough. Joe Joyce has the chin and can maybe absorb things that Joshua can’t.”
Tommy Fury will never be world champ and John Fury is an attention seeker
Tommy Fury faces KSI next month in a Misfits boxing production which saw John Fury flip tables at the press conference recently. Bridges isn’t buying into the match and took aim at both of them;
“When I watch that, I just think John Fury does my head in a little bit, it’s a bit too much. But hey, that sort of drama will get views on YouTube. Tommy’s capitalising because he won’t make money in normal boxing and he’s never going to be a world champion. Let’s be real. Sorry mate.”
Frank Warren is weird for suggesting Joe Joyce should retire
Promoter Frank Warren sparked debate with his suggestions that Joe Joyce could walk away from boxing after he was knocked out by Zhilei Zhang for the second time. Bridges can’t understand where he’s coming from and gave her support to the Putney based puncher;
“I disagree with him. It’s so weird that he said that. He hasn’t even had that many pro fights, he turned pro quite late so he’s still raw. I mean, he got knocked out by Zhang. That guy’s huge. It’s like a fighter has a loss and is like, ‘oh, you better retire’. No. You just get back in there and you build it back up and whatever, you know, maybe that guy’s just not your match.”
