👊 Born From Legacy, Yet Still Unproven
Both fighters are known more for their surnames than their accolades. Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn defined a generation. Their sons? Still struggling to escape their fathers’ shadows.
Chris Eubank Jr has spent 14 years in the pro circuit without a single world title. He’s had chances—but never seized them.
Conor Benn, despite an undefeated record, has also not faced truly elite opposition and carries the stain of a doping controversy that left a dent in his reputation.
⚖️ A Weight Discrepancy That Raises Eyebrows
This fight features a questionable weight matchup. Eubank Jr, a natural super middleweight and borderline light heavyweight, drops to middleweight.
Meanwhile, Conor Benn moves up two divisions from welterweight—a massive leap. From a competitive standpoint, many argue this fight is more spectacle than sport.

💵 Big Payday for Mediocre Resumes
Reports claim both fighters will earn $10 million combined from this showdown. That’s an astronomical sum for two boxers who have never won world titles.
While true elite fighters grind for a fraction of that amount, Eubank Jr and Benn are cashing in on their fathers’ legacies. It’s a money grab—plain and simple.
🏆 Ring Magazine Title in the Spotlight—for the Wrong Reasons
Surprisingly, the prestigious Ring Magazine Middleweight Title is on the line. But here’s the issue: this belt is traditionally reserved for top-tier matchups.
IBF & WBO middleweight champion Janibek Alimkhanuly is widely recognized as the division’s best—neither Eubank nor Benn would stand a chance against him.
With Saudi investors recently acquiring Ring Magazine, many speculate the belt is being used as a promotional tool. If true, it’s a disgrace to over a century of boxing integrity.
🧠 GG Counterpunch: “Conor Benn Will Score a Knockout!”
Many people will go with Eubank Jr. But GG sees it differently:
“Eubank Jr will struggle with rehydration. He’ll get knocked out. That’s what I think and believe.”
Eubank Jr has hinted at retirement if he loses—but let’s be real, neither he nor Benn are walking away from million-dollar rematches anytime soon.
"I can't wait to put my hands on HIM" 🔜
