LONDON, England - Conor Benn has switched up the training camp plan for his rematch with Chris Eubank Jr as he bids to secure his family's first win against their rival clan.

After 12 all-action rounds at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 26, it was Eubank Jr who got the nod against Benn, who had jumped up to middleweight for the fight.

Given that Chris Eubank Sr won once and drew the other against Benn's famous father Nigel during the 1990s, it means they are still without a victory in nearly 35 years of trying.

But the 29-year-old 'Destroyer' has decided to return home for training camp this time in order to fully 'feel the magnitude' of the event, which takes place back at the home of Tottenham Hotspur on November 15, live on DAZN.

"I've cut my camp down to eight weeks and it is all being done at home," Benn tells The Ring.

"I want to feel the magnitude of the fight, didn't want to disappear to another country. On my land I've got an annex, where me and my team are all plotted up for training camp."

For their first fight, Benn and his team relocated to Majorca, a place he knows well having spent around 12 years of his childhood there. The team left no stone unturned in their preparation, which included the infamous spars with then-IBF super middleweight champion champion William Scull, who was accused of quitting after a few rounds with Benn.

This time however, he will live just metres away from his family home in an annex on his Essex premises providing precious moments with his wife Victoria and two children Eli and Idony.

"It's totally different to last time but I like to see my kids, if only for a few minutes," he adds. "My son will run over and say 'daddy, can I go on the quad bike?' or 'daddy, is this where you're sleeping?'

"I'll see them here and there and share little moments 'quick, come over here and give me a cuddle'. I'll quickly run over to cuddle my daughter. Why should I miss those moments?

"Their faces whenever they see me is just priceless and I will say 'all of this, what I'm doing, this is for you guys'."

The two rivals engaged in a bitter build-up ahead of their first fight, involving the egg stunt which cost Eubank Jr a £100,000 fine from the British Boxing Board of Control.

But following their all-action fight in April, a new level of respect has emerged between the pair which has, in turn, resulted in a much calmer Benn.

"I'm still me," he says with a wry smile. "I mean, you get what you get but I do feel very differently this time around. I feel a lot calmer and I’m relaxed now.

"Last time, I was tense. You could cut that tension with a knife. The only way I can describe how I felt was like a quad bike at biting point. I was just on the edge of going at any point, like a volcano and it was the first time I’d really felt that before a fight.

"This time, I still don't like him but I know what I'm dealing with now."

While Eubank Jr (35-2, 25 KOs) has brought in Brian 'Bomac' McIntyre to help steer him towards a second successive victory and his family's third in total against the Benns, it is business as usual back in Essex for his younger opponent.

Tony Sims, like he has been for the entirety of Benn’s career, is the head trainer while Dan Lawrence will once again plan the strength and conditioning for their second middleweight fight on the bounce.

Benn, a noted puncher at 147 pounds, is now on a run of three distance fights in a row, given he beat Rodolfo Orozco on points over 10 in September 2023 before going the full 12 against Peter Dobson and claiming a wide unanimous decision.

His clash with Eubank was by far the most gruelling fight of his career to date but he says the work done in camp enabled him to make it to the end, even if all three judges scored it 116-112 to Eubank.

"I genuinely thought I would knock him out in three, four rounds," Benn (23-1, 14 KOs) said.

"When I predicted that, I didn't say that in jest or as a passing comment. I meant it.

"I was preparing to knock him out but thank God I keep myself in great shape so I could go the distance. I've only been the full 12-round distance two times in my career but I felt like I could have done 15 rounds. The fitness is never a concern.

"I prepare hard, diligently and that will not change this time."
