The rivalry continues: Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn meet again at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on November 15.
The much-anticipated rematch between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn is official. According to a report in Ring Magazine , the two British rivals will meet again on November 15 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London – the same venue where Eubank claimed a clear points victory in April. The event is entitled “The Ring: Unfinished Business” and is once again financially supported by Saudi Arabian Entertainment Minister Turki Al-Sheikh. The fight continues a family feud that began back in the 1990s when the pair’s fathers, Chris Eubank Sr. and Nigel Benn, were legendary rivals.
The first clash in April was a twelve-round thriller, which Eubank won 116-112 on all three scorecards. The defeat was Benn’s first of his career and immediately sparked discussions about a rematch. After delays in negotiations and failed dates in September, the rematch has now been scheduled. Just one week after Eubank-Benn II, the Ring IV card will follow in Riyadh on November 22, making the fall boxing season an absolute highlight for fans.
