Davies narrated his movements as he wandered around ringside and said: “I’m very near Conor Benn, I just want to say hello to-“Davies reacted: “Well he’s knocked the microphone off, he doesn’t wanna talk tonight I’m afraid.Benn is believed to be upset with the way talkSPORT have covered the debacle surrounding his positive drugs tests“He clearly doesn’t wanna do anything. That’s the arrogance of youth unfortunately.

He wasn’t aggressive towards me at all…“We know that privately he’s been a bit disappointed by a lot of the criticism he’s had on talkSPORT and I think that’s all that’s happened tonight.“It wasn’t aggressive, I wasn’t ducking a left hook or anything, he just slapped the microphone bulb with talkSPORT on it.”
