The English grudge match is set for Saturday night in London
Barring any more twists and turns, and there have been many, Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn will finally share the ring on Saturday. The path to get to the fight has involved everything from a fight cancellation due to a failed drug test, a years-long battle of words, smashed eggs and missed weight.
The rivalry between Benn and Eubank dates back to a pair of fights between their fathers in the 1990s. Eubank Sr. knocked out Nigel Benn in the first meeting before the pair battled to a draw in the rematch in a rivalry that did big domestic business in the United Kingdom.
A fight between Eubank and Benn was talked up for years after Benn, 28, started to work his way through his professional career while Eubank, 35, was already established.
