Benn's promoter Eddie Hearn was one of the people unhappy with the scoring and he said: "I couldn't split them at the end. I thought Benn was winning the fight. I thought he lost the last two rounds.

"116-112, I'm not going to... we've seen him moan before about scores. It is what it is.

"I don't see Chris Eubank winning that fight by four rounds at all. But forget that, just unbelievable respect for both men.

"I could not be prouder of Conor Benn for what he's been through and the heart he showed in the ring tonight. 

"Nigel Benn was the people's champion. Tonight Conor Benn became the people's champion."
