Conor Benn returned to the squared circle last night to take on Peter Dobson in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The past few years have been tough for Benn. He was booked to take on Chris Eubank Jr. in a highly anticipated matchup in October 2022. However, after an adverse finding in a drug test, he was out of the ring for 11 months.
Benn returned to the squared circle in September 2023 to take on Rodolfo Orozco. Despite securing a victory on the night, his performance was considered below par.
Now, his fight against Dobson also turned out to be a lot closer than many would have expected. While 'The Destroyer' started the bout strongly, his opponent was able to find his feet in the middle rounds and make it a tough fight.
