Conor Benn is already at world level, according to his training partner and unbeaten boxer Jordan Flynn.

The 20-0 welterweight has become one of Britain's top prospects, but his promoter Eddie Hearn has decided to take his time as he builds the boxer's record and profile before launching him to the top of boxing. This has frustrated Benn at times, who has on multiple occasions called for a major step-up in competition.

And ahead of his return to the ring this weekend against Chris van Heerden, Benn's training partner Jordan Flynn has told of how he has already shown behind-the-scenes his ability to compete at the highest level in boxing. Flynn and Benn train out of the Matchroom Gym, where they are both preparing for fights in the coming weeks.

"I think this will be another demolishing performance for Conor," said Flynn, who is preparing for a fight of his own on May 7 against journeyman Rustem Fatkhullin at the Kent Showground. "The way he works in the gym, he works like an animal.

"He should win, he should walk through the guy but it's a good test, good learning fight for him at this stage of his career to take him to that world level.
