The feud between Conor Benn and Peter Dobson has gotten heated fast.

The return of 'The Destroyer' has largely flown below the radar. Last September, Benn made his return to the boxing ring in America, defeating Rodolfo Orozco. The fight was the first for the British boxer in well over a year.

The welterweight contender was famously forced to the sidelines due to a failed drug test in late 2022. Just days out from a fight with Chris Eubank Jr., Benn was pulled. Over the following year, the boxer got into a heated feud with the British Boxing Board of Control.

With his status in the U.K. still up in there, Benn's next fight had to happen in America. This Saturday night in Las Vegas, he will face the undefeated Peter Dobson. For most of the build between these two boxers, things have been relatively calm.

However, that's no longer the case. Earlier this week, the two had a face-off in front of the iconic Las Vegas sign, with Eddie Hearn on hand. In the face-off, Benn and Dobson traded a lot of insults to one another.

In the back-and-forth, Benn stated:

"Stop shaking! Look you're f****** shaking, stop shaking you f****** p*******. You're shaking because you're scared man.... If I did what I wanted to do right now, I'd be f****** arrested and there would be no fight."

Dobson replied:

"I'm shaking because I want to fight. I want to fight."
