Conor Benn names the fighter he would 'love to share a ring with'

Conor Benn names the fighter he would 'love to share a ring with'Ed Mulholland/Matchroom
Conor Benn's next fight could be a big one.

If promoter Eddie Hearn is to be believed, negotiations have stalled for a fight between Conor Benn and Gervonta Davis. 

Following his win over Peter Dobson on February 3 in Las Vegas, Benn was immediately linked with a number of big names including the dangerous "Tank" Davis. 

While an offer was sent to Davis' camp for a Benn fight, there has been no response from the American and now Hearn has revealed that former world champion Danny Garcia could be in contention to face Benn next. 

The news of a potential fight between Benn vs. Garcia has not gone down well with some fans, but when responding to a post on X, the British welterweight star revealed that he is someone who he would like to face.

"I respect Danny Garcia, great fighter, I'd love to share a ring with him," Benn wrote. 

If Garcia does face Benn next, it would end two years of inactivity with his last fight taking place in July 2022 against Jose Benavidez Jr which "Swift" won by majority decision.
