Brook Reveals Favourite for Eubank Jr vs Benn
Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn will finally meet in their eagerly anticipated middleweight clash. The fight was originally slated for 2022 before Benn failed two drug tests. Benn then announced via his X account that he had been cleared to fight again. Following that news, the UK Anti-Doping and British Board of Boxing Control decided not to appeal the decision to lift his suspension. Subsequently, April 26 was made.
As we enter fight week, the build-up should be box office and fight night should provide plenty of fireworks for all those inside the stadium and watching at home.
Looking ahead to the main event, Brook was clear about who he thinks will win: “In my opinion, I’ve got Eubank to win,” Brook said.
“But the weight’s an issue, what’s it going to have taken out of Eubank when he’s in the ring.
“I slightly favour Eubank because he’s boxed at a bigger level, for me Conor has not boxed at that level as of yet.”
