Eddie probably wanted to put him in a fight with a live body and Benn jumped ship

Massive signing for @Zuffa_Boxing as British star Conor Benn has now signed! Benn coming off a dominant rematch victory over Chris Eubank Jr. in November before a sold-out stadium in London. The first fight also packed Tottenham. Expect Conor to debut in April/May. 🥊

Maybe Eddie should think twice about ripping people infinitely more than he'll ever be. He genuinely talked about them like he was dealing with Shalom.

First and foremost, I want to thank Eddie and the entire team at Matchroom for everything they’ve done for me over the past decade.

From guiding me when I first turned pro, to headlining stadium shows. They were not only with me for those highlight moments but stood shoulder to shoulder with me during the tough times.

It’s been a journey beyond anything we could have imagined, and for their belief, support, and guidance, I will always be truly grateful, but Zuffa Boxing presented me with an opportunity I simply couldn’t refuse. I’d love Eddie to
continue to be part of my team and for our partnership to evolve in this new chapter.

I’m filled with excitement and hunger for what’s ahead with Zuffa Boxing. I want the legacy fights, the biggest nights, the biggest stages. I fear no man at any weight, and I’m ready to give the fans the fights they’ve been calling for. I’m in my prime, and together we have bold, ambitious plans

Hahahaahhahaha Eddie Hearn you have had your pants down. Hope he can now show signs of honesty about the shambles that has been the Eddie and Conor debacle the past few years.
