Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn II | PPV - 15 November 2025

[Ruthless-RKO]

it's like they're trying to drum up drama for the second fight. I've quite enjoyed not seeing or hearing Eddie Hearn recently so I'll be skipping this fight again

He just loves himself..

Probably spoke more than any one on his table combined. You’d think it was Eubank vs Hearn.

[stujones]

Felt like hype to be honest - I cannot believe what Eubank has claimed for one second.

Maybe I shouldn't say it - but also really find it hard to believe that Eubank was as close to "death" as Snr has made out.

This fight is going to be a huge money maker

The Eubanks', are masters at bullshittery.

From all the nonsense about Sr not turning up for the first fight, when we all knew that Sr's ego was far too huge to miss that event and that he would turn up.

Jr's weight loss videos were pure BS too.

Every fighter does that, they just don't put it on Instafake and make a big deal out of it; plus, he is the one who agreed to the rehydration clause, so it's on him.

He's a middleweight by nature, so it wasn't unusual for him.

Now he's hamming up his hospital stay and talking about his toenail, I thought that was David Haye's domain!

Now this crap about the ambulance?

If that was true, that would have come out long ago.

I've got to hand it to the Eubanks', they are better promoters than the promoters.

I 100% agree with that. They just used it as the narrative to sell the fight.

Chris Eubank Jr hires Terence Crawford's trainer again, heads to Dubai for training camp

Chris Eubank and Brian "BoMac" McIntyre will head to Dubai for training camp ahead of the November 15 rematch with Conor Benn.

Eubank (35-3, 25 KOs) beat his British rival via unanimous decision at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 26 in the headline fight of The Ring’s Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves.

The pair have agreed to proceed with the contracted rematch and will meet for the second time at the home of Spurs.

Eubank, 36, has switched up his training team for his second encounter with Benn even though Jonathon Banks helped steer him to victory in the initial fight. But for this one and Banks is out and McIntyre is in, Eubank confirmed.

The pair have a successful past, working together once when Eubank had his revenge against Liam Smith. In January 2023, Eubank lost for the first and only time inside the distance when Smith stopped him in the fourth round at Manchester Arena.

Eight months later, however, with McIntyre in his corner, Eubank turned the tables by seeing off Smith in the 10th round at the same venue.

Eubank said: “I am 1-0 when it comes to rematches after what happened with Liam Smith. Conor has never been in an immediate rematch before so my experience in that sense is superior to his.

“That was another reason why we have BoMac here for this camp because he helped me win that rematch with Liam Smith and I believe he will help me win my rematch with Conor Benn, too.

“Our camp will be in Dubai. It has started already, I’m never not out of the gym. Camp has started and we will go strong from now up until the day of the fight.”

As well as the victory over Smith, Eubank’s alliance with McIntyre, most famous for his work with three-weight undisputed champion Terence Crawford, was equally memorable for what happened the day after the fight when he tried to fly home from Manchester airport.

It was there that officials found a Smith and Wesson firearm, as well as seven rounds of ammunition, in a zip compartment of his luggage leading to his arrest. He was remanded in custody and charged with possession of a firearm and possession of ammunition for a firearm without a certificate.

He was jailed for 20 months, but the sentence was suspended for two years after Judge Nicholas Dean KC said "exceptional circumstances" of the case had convinced not to hand down the usual five-year jail term. McIntyre had a licence to carry the weapon in the United States but said he had forgotten he even had it in his luggage at the time.

Just days after Crawford beat Canelo Alvarez in Las Vegas, McIntyre returned to England for the first time to sit at the top table of Wednesday’s press conference to formally announce the rematch between Eubank and Benn.

After training camp in Dubai, he will return to England for the fight despite his conviction.

Eubank said: “As far as I’m aware we cleared everything up and that whole situation was settled amicably with the authorities and there is no further issues.”

Bomac better check his bag carefully before heading to Dubai. Much less understanding there, I hear.

Sarcasm?
The first one didn't fill the venue, despite all the talk of a sellout.
The second fight?
I only speak for myself, but I saw all I needed to see the first time.

Not sarcasm, the first generated big money
I think the second will do more, which is why neither are looking for world title fights, it's the casuals dream.
They will both go for it too

Did anyone else think Hearn & Benn cynically used Hatton’s death for their own benefit?

Eubank interrupts Hearn & then Hearn says ‘I was going to talk about Ricky Hatton’.

Benn doesn’t just turn up in a City shirt he does a photoshoot in it on his own.

It all seemed a bit choreographed to me.

‘I’ve got an idea Conor, wear this City shirt to the press conference as a tribute to Hatton & it’ll get you back in the public’s good books after the failed drug test’ type of thing. Maybe I’m just cynical & reading too much into it but I feel like they’re definitely the type of characters that would do something like that.

I also thought Anthony Fowler was a disgrace the other day trying to advertise CBD oil on the back of Ricky’s passing.

[a force]

I agree with Shalom about rehydration clauses. I hate them.

The thing what makes Crawford’s win over Canelo so special to me is that Canelo wasn’t depleted & he could rehydrate to whatever he wanted.

If Benn hurts Eubank & gets a stoppage, what does it actually mean? He’s managed to stop a fighter in his mid-30’s weighing less than he has at anytime in his career? He’s been making middleweight for 15 years & has only had rehydration clauses in his last two fights. Thats not healthy. Fighters should be moving up in weight by that age & not depleting themselves.

I'll give Benn a pass on this one. He looked upset and did start his career with Hatton.

[big lennox]

Benn was tearful in separate interviews. I think the whole boxing community is shattered by Ricky's untimely passing.

I like Eubank Jnr, but I do wish he had let Eddie say a few words about Ricky. He misjudged that. You could tell that Eddie really wanted to pay tribute to a great servant of boxing.

In fact, after such an extraordinary first fight, and Ricky's tragic death, I hoped the press conference would be more pleasant and less advesarial.

I think Eddie was just trying to "get one over" on Eubank by doing that. He is using Hattons death as a way to get one over on Eubank because he knows Eubank didn't want him to talk and would shut him down. Turn people against Eubank as if he was disrespectful to Hatton but it was really Eddie who was the opportunist who was using Hattons death in a very disgusting manner in my view. Coming out with all the self righteous BS about how he wasn't allowed to talk. It's textbook Eddie. He has ample opportunity to talk about Hatton in other interviews. God knows he isn't shy of doing an interview. He knew that Eubank doesn't want him talking at the presser and it riles him up so much that he would use Hattons death as a way to get at Eubank. This makes me believe Eubank about them holding up the ambulance and all of the other shady things. As Eubank would say, scumbags. I would have liked to have seen Eubank mention Skye Nicholson on the stage...

[samwbr]

Benn a city fan. fornicate off.

[coneye]

I think with Benn its actualy a tribute i also have seen the interview where he's actually tearful and upset about Ricky ,, Hearn well he's just an opportunist , if he wants to give a 30 min euology to Ricky he can call a meeting and get one any time with Kugan ,, he did'nt need to start at there press conference . opportunist .

Regards Chris well WOW what can you say , this guy really does have penuts for brains and loves to give his money away , Or he has factual proof of what he's saying , so you have to analize it , Hearn said after , peanut brains and idiots will watch and believe so he has to basicly sue and prove him wrong . so its easy go through it all .

Ambulance held up for 20 min , if true its not good , regardless he could of been seriously injured and if gates were not open serious repurcusions , , that bit is true , so who would be resposible , easy the promoter rented the stadium to hold an event so he's responsible , , Now this is really a simple open and close case , because were talking ambulance and hospital , and EVERY DETAIL will have been logged , so Chris better not be making it up cos it will cost him

Robert Smith and board ,, well apparantly it is true according to Shalom , that Smith aloud press into the weigh in and a PRIVATE WEIGH IN , so if thats not the norm its a bit suss, and it would of took time to get them out regardles if Chris got there late or not he was there on time and did'nt want to and should'nt have too spend time clearing a room full of people who should not be there he could of spent that time skipping and losing an oz .

Billy Joe , well if Smith was there he did allow someone with no right to be there , cause a ruck while a fighters getting ready especielly Saunders with there history , would Smith allow me to do it or have security stop me .

Big Fine , and where did the money go , well its been asked before, its a simple question, its a fair question , where does the money from fines , fee;s and everything else go , do they releas financial statements .

dehydration clause , well we all know Chris signed it but that does'nt make it right , not the dehydration clause but the amount , under some rules its allowed but its also limited at a higher amount , seems Benn and Hearn are allowed to make there own up , now this is dangerous and should'nt be allowed , i would of thought thats what the BBBC were there for to stop people making up there own rules under threat of not fighting .

Personaly i watch and i listen to Eubank and laugh to myself and think he's more entertaining than his dad , but then i look at how he bent the knee for a kilo or so of weight in exchange for the dollars he makes on the fight , and i think ,

Chris you should of told them to do one you don't need the money , because i would bet my house if he did , Hearn would raise the clause a kilo or so , and made Benn accept it .

Facts are Benn has not fought at welterweight for a long time , chris has fought at middl for a long time , a dehydration clause if needed to help balance should never be below the official one

I know with the weight fine the $500k went to Benn. As majority of the ‘not making weight fines’ do go to the opponent.

Was he fined for the egg smash too?

I read a lot of fines don’t go to the board and re-invested back into boxing, but I have no proof.

You’re right about Chris not needing it, but hey what’s an extra £10m in his back pocket.

Guarantee Benn needed the fight way more than Eubank did.

Hearn’s always been slimy. It’s part of his game

BEN SHALOM PUSHING TO PUT RICHARD RIAKPORHE-JOE JOYCE ON NOV. 15 CARD

– Tucked away in a suite overlooking Tottenham Hotspur Stadium pitch are a dozen members of Chris Eubank Jr.’s extended team, waiting for their man to finish his media obligations after another emotional press conference.

Among them is the highly rated trainer with whom he reunited, Brian “BoMac” McIntyre, and the 55-year-old’s crew.

Eubank’s promoter and BOXXER chief Ben Shalom appears on high alert for potential issues, but eventually eases to discuss future plans with The Ring after a busy few months packed with uncertainty.

“It’s been a transition period, changing from Sky to BBC is a big deal – massive opportunity – but when you’re changing between two monsters like we are, it’s a big job,” he sighs after being asked about the specifics of their first show on terrestrial television. “Not just for the production teams and the talent, but everything needs to be lined up and make sense. We’ll announce our schedule very soon.”

Adam Azim’s new contract was unveiled last week, but details were kept under wraps.

“Azim will be in a major career-defining fight before the year ends,” Shalom said. ‘We’ve started with him and been through it [his career] since the start. He’s a phenomenal fighter and I’m delighted to see his career’s next chapter.”

Jack Catterall-Ekow Essuman and Cameron Vuong-Gavin Gwynne 2 have been named as two potential undercard bouts on the Eubank-Conor Benn 2 bill November 15, but Shalom wants a strong BOXXER contingent, as he had for their April 26 meeting.

World-level middleweight contender Aaron McKenna (20-0, 10 KOs) and new British cruiserweight titleholder Viddal Riley (13-0, 7 KOs) are free agents, but both produced career-best performances after Chris Billam-Smith’s gritty 12-round points win over Brandon Glanton.

“We’re pushing for Richard Riakporhe to be on this card,” Shalom said. “A fight against Joe Joyce is a great British heavyweight fight. Tommy Welch is another option.”

Joyce (16-4, 15 KOs), a former WBO interim heavyweight titleholder, turned 40 on Friday and has lost four of his last five fights, two by stoppage since early 2023. A two-fight series with Zhilei Zhang ended with consecutive damaging knockout defeats, before 10-round losses against Derek Chisora and Filip Hrgovic on Queensberry's first DAZN show on April 5.

Joyce’s promoter, allegedly, told The Ring that weekend he was purposely reticent upon hearing the Olympic silver medalist planned another return to action and accepted it was “very tough” for the eight-year pro to return to the sport’s elite level now.

When someone is describing you as a “great servant” for a nation’s sporting achievement, it’s hardly a glowing assessment of your future prospects.

“He's got so much courage but needs to have a real sit down,” Warren said at the time. “I’ll tell him what I think and he’ll make a decision as to what he wants to do. One thing about boxing, you get to a certain age and this stuff can catch up to you.”

Riakporhe (18-1, 14 KOs), a former world title challenger, has been inactive and often boxed low-level opposition since winning the British cruiserweight crown in December 2019. So, when his world title opportunity came on home soil against then-WBO beltholder Billam-Smith at Selhurst Park last summer, the 35-year-old's lack of variety and a plan B was glaring in a rematch of a fight he had edged five years earlier.

Shalom wasn’t happy, but under a new coach in Billy Nelson, armed with a world-level divisional sparring partner away from home comforts in Scotland, he is optimistic about Riakporhe 2.0.

“I always felt that Richard was a heavyweight,” Shalom said. “It frustrated me that he couldn’t perform at cruiserweight anymore – much like Okolie – the injury withdrawal made that [staying motivated] difficult. We got him back and he looked brilliant out in Riyadh. I’m excited for him to get into the heavyweight mix. He can do some serious damage now and sparring Martin Bakole is only a good thing.”

Shalom added that Tommy Welch (16-0, 9 KOs) was another option they could pursue instead. The 30-year-old Welch is a longtime family friend of welterweight contender Harlem Eubank, Chris’ cousin.
