Why Bet on Conor Benn
Benn (son of former two-division world champion Nigel Benn) continued his march towards a world title in Liverpool in December, when he followed up contrasting wins over Samuel Vargas and Adrian Granados with a dominant knockout of veteran Chris Algieri.
The undefeated 25-year-old – now 20-0 as a professional with 13 KOs to his name – will also be confident of making another statement in this fight.
Why Bet on Chris Van Heerden
An experienced southpaw from South Africa, Van Heerden turns 35 in June and has not fought since December 2020
His IBO title meeting with the fearsome rising star Jaron Ennis was called off in the first round and ruled a no-contest after he sustained a nasty cut from an accidental clash of heads, having been put under huge pressure immediately.
‘The Heat’ had previously reeled off five successive wins since suffering the only stoppage of his career in an emphatic defeat by then-rising star Spence in Toronto in September 2015.
Final Betting Analysis – Conor Benn vs. Chris Van Heerden:
2022 has the potential to be a huge year for Conor Benn.
His rise to becoming one of British boxing’s biggest names has gone to plan so far and he will be looking to make a statement against veteran Chris Van Heerden.
When it comes to how this particular fight will play out, expect Benn to adjust to Van Heerden’s southpaw stance and then produce an explosive finish similar to his fourth-round knockout against Chris Algieri last December.
