Video Highlights: Conor Benn Demolishes Chris Algieri in Round 4

Conor Benn delivered yet another spectacular display of action and retained his WBA continental welterweight title by stopping Chris Algieri in the fourth round of their headlining clash. The Matchroom event ended with a show-stealer and Benn silenced his critics with a resounding statement.

While several people doubted him as a top-tier prospect, Conor Benn’s recent win validates him to compete for the world titles soon. Nevertheless, it is time to relish his highlight reel KO, which has advanced his pro record to 20-0 with 13 stoppage wins.

While Chris Algieri was touted as a perfect antidote to Benn’s dominance, ‘The Destroyer’ turned the tables in style. He appeared the better fighter from the very beginning and had an easy day at work.

After offering extreme action in round one, Benn saw early success in round two. ‘The Destroyer’ floored his opponent twice by the end of the second round. However, Chris Algieri could return to his game and keep the bout going. He survived Conor Benn’s lopsided dominance in round three. Despite that beating he took, his loyalists still had some hope.

That’s when Conor Benn’s right hand did its magic in the fourth round. He planted his massive right hand to send former champion Chris Algieri across the ropes to score a brilliant KO and secure the win. Now, the undefeated prospect is eyeing bigger goals in 2022.

Is Conor Benn ready for the top-tier challenges?

Benn’s latest victory clearly puts him in a similar bracket with the existing A-listers of the welterweight division. Besides, he has already targeted some potential blockbusters for himself. ‘The Destroyer’ desired to face the winner of Amir Khan vs Kell Brook in the post-fight interview.

He also hinted at going after four-division champion Adrien Broner at some point. No wonder the welterweight division has several top-tier personas on board.

With his form, Conor Benn won’t have a problem in finding relevant names. He has cemented himself as a prizefighter now and is clearly liable to bag a big bout. We can finally expect him to get a world title shot in 2022 unless a mishap takes place.
