Eubank Jr. and Benn to Fight in April

News summary

Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn are set to fight in London this April, marking the culmination of a two-year delay due to Benn's positive drug tests. Saudi official Turki Alalshikh confirmed that the deal is done, with the fight expected to take place at either Tottenham Hotspur Stadium or Wembley, with April 26 being the likely date. Eddie Hearn, Benn's promoter, stated that they are finalizing venue details and hope to secure a hosting agreement soon. This bout revives the legacy of their fathers' legendary rivalry in the 1990s, adding significant anticipation among fans. Benn, who has returned to the ring after being cleared of doping violations, is moving up in weight to face Eubank, who has voiced concerns about rehydration clauses. The announcement comes as part of a broader push for major boxing events, with Alalshikh hinting at further significant fights to be revealed soon.
