Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn: Date, UK start time, undercard and how to follow as rivals finally meet at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Feb 18, 2025
Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn will finally meet in the ring later this year after plenty of waiting.
The duo were initially meant to reignite their fathers' rivalry in October 2022, but Benn failed a drug test.

The fight was immediately postponed, and Benn was suspended pending an investigation.
Throughout it all he has insisted he is innocent, and after a two-year battle with the UK Anti-Doping Agency [UKAD], he was eventually cleared.
This means Benn is now allowed to fight in the UK again, and a bout with Eubank Jr was immediately rearranged.
In the time Benn has been banned, Eubank Jr has fought Liam Smith twice and Kamil Szeremeta, and after the latter bout in Saudi Arabia, Benn jumped into the ring to confront his long-time rival.
The hatred between Eubank and Benn goes all the way back to the days of Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank Sr.
The duo fought each other twice during their careers, and the feud has remained bitter even between their sons, which means we should be in for fireworks.
