Chris Eubank vs. Conor Benn II Set for Nov. 15 At Tottenham Stadium
First it was off, then on, then off again. Now, the rematch between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn is officially back on.

The Ring has learned that a deal to see them run back their April 26 showdown was completed through Sela on Tuesday. They will have approximately three months to prepare for their sequel that will take place Nov. 15 at Tottenham Stadium in the United Kingdom.

Sela will take charge as the lead promoter, while the event will be sponsored by Ring Magazine and Riyadh Season.




Benn (23-1, 14 KOs) had been confident that he did more than enough to earn the victory in the first bout. However, judges Mark Bates, Lee Every, and Kieran McCann scored it identically for Eubank, 116-112. Like their fathers, they’ll do it again.

Chris Eubank Sr. proudly strutted around the ring following his ninth-round stoppage win over Nigel Benn on Nov. 18, 1990. Roughly three years later, they ran it back but the decision was a split draw.

Benn, who has campaigned mostly as a junior welterweight (140) and welterweight (147), met Eubank where he was most comfortable, despite never fighting as a middleweight (160).

Ultimately, Eubank (35-3, 25 KOs) was forced to respect Benn after 12 hard rounds and needed a trip to the local hospital.




Eubank admitted that Benn was far better than he was expecting and that making weight was difficult. Shedding the final one-half pound from his frame was impossible, which resulted in a fine of approximately $500,000.

It’s unclear if their rematch will once again take place at 160 pounds, but it’s believed that the weight terms will remain the same.
