Eddie Hearn of Matchroom discusses Chris Eubank Jr vs. Conor Benn - one of the biggest fights to be made in British Boxing. Eddie Hearn hopes the fight will be finalised this week for 3rd February 2024. He is in discussions with Kalle Sauerland of Wasserman Boxing and hopes to have a decision this week.
The rivalry between Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn is rooted in their family and stems back to their father's - Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank Snr. The first bout, between Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn was due to take place on October 2022 at the O2 Arena in London, was cancelled due to Conor Benn’s two failed drug tests.
Eddie Hearn tells us that Conor Benn can't wait around for Chris Eubank Jr and they will look for other opponents if the fight is not finalised.
