Eubank Jr, Benn Prepare for High-Stakes November Rematch in London

Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn are set for a highly anticipated rematch on November 15 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, following their intense first fight where Eubank Jr won by unanimous decision. The rivalry has been marked by controversy, including Eubank Jr slapping Benn with an egg during a press conference, which led to a significant fine and heightened tensions between the fighters. Eubank Jr accused promoter Eddie Hearn and the British Boxing Board of Control of various forms of sabotage, including blocking an ambulance that took him to the hospital for severe dehydration after their initial bout. Despite these conflicts, both camps have agreed to proceed with the rematch after initial scheduling issues. The buildup has been notably confrontational, with security often intervening to prevent physical altercations during press events. The drama surrounding their rivalry has been captured in the Netflix docuseries 'Matchroom: The Greatest Showmen,' highlighting the personal and professional stakes involved.
