When and Where is the Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn Fight in 2025?
The long-awaited clash between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn is officially set for April 26, 2025, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Saudi boxing organizer Turki Alalshikh confirmed the fight on January 23, 2025, with Benn later reaffirming the date on Instagram.
Originally scheduled for October 2022, the fight was called off after Benn tested positive for the banned substance clomifene, leading the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBoC) to halt the bout. Following a lengthy legal battle, Benn successfully overturned his suspension in November 2024, when the National Anti-Doping Panel (NADP) ruled there was insufficient evidence of a violation. With his suspension lifted, Benn and Eubank Jr. have reignited their family rivalry, setting the stage for an explosive showdown.
Benn has already made bold predictions ahead of the fight, declaring on Instagram, “I am taking Eubank’s head clean off his shoulders. It’s going to be so brutal, it’s going to be so violent. Four rounds, bet your money on four rounds, I’ll take this clown’s head clean off.
