Simon Jordan believes Conor Benn may already have an explanation available if his return to 147 pounds ends badly against Ryan Garcia on September 12.

After four days of stag do, I had to get up at 6am to catch the only train back to Dublin that would have me reach my flight home before getting married the next day. You have no idea how close I was to missing…

“I don’t think you truly believed,” Bradley said on his channel. “I don’t think you truly believed that Devin Haney was gonna pull that damn card.” The former two-division champion felt Davis had the ability to beat Haney, which made his decision harder for Bradley to understand. “You had a chance to knock him off, bro. And the crazy part is that when I was studying this fight, I’m like, ‘Damn, Keyshawn Davis could knock off Devin Haney. He got what it takes.’ Oh yeah. But you didn’t believe that.” Davis’ financial demands also became part of Bradley’s argument about…
