Eubank vs Benn: Date, fight time, undercard, prediction, ring walks and odds
Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn fight this weekend as the arch-rivals finally settle their differences with a highly-anticipated London grudge match.
One of the biggest all-British showdowns boxing has seen in recent years is a contest more than two-and-a-half years in the making, having originally supposed to have taken place back in October 2022 before being cancelled at late notice after Benn failed two voluntary drugs tests.
One of British boxing’s most intense rivalries of that decade has since been passed down, with a genuine dislike having built between the duo and multiple clashes erupted between Eubank Jr and Benn, including at a chaotic press conference in February when Eubank Jr slapped his opponent with an egg during a wild face-off – a reference to the WBC’s report in 2023 that a “highly-elevated consumption of eggs” was a “reasonable explanation” for Benn’s failed tests – that ended in a brawl.
