WBO rules out Bentley vs Benn

Conor Benn just got shut down from challenging Denzel Bentley for the middleweight title, and the WBO dropped a direct statement on why this fight is off the table. The ruling makes it clear that Bentley has to face Hernandez first since he's been ordered to discharge that mandatory obligation as specified. It isn't just about the schedule; Benn lacks an official rating entirely and is stepping back in after taking a TKO loss. That is the final word: Not happening until those requirements are met. .com/articles/wbo-rule-out-denzel-bentley-vs-conor-benn-for-…
