“I have got a long career ahead of me, we ain’t reached a blip yet. We ain’t reached the down yet, that’s coming, don’t you worry about that, that will come. But then watch me rise from ashes, it will come. I will have a hiccup in my career, without a doubt, and it will be the end of the world, and Conor Benn is finished, Conor Benn is done,” said Conor Benn.
He added, “And I know the haters are waiting for that, but I will reach the end goal. I just gotta reach it once, I just gotta be a world champion once and I will be a happy man.”
