Chris Eubank Jr still has unfinished interests with Conor Bennem, but is already looking at the fight of Canelo Alvarez vs Terenca Crawford on September 14 in Las Vegas – a fight that can shape his future.

Eubank, a former IBO medium weight champion from Brighton, insists that he wants a winner when dust has fallen. But first he returns to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium on November 15 on a rematch with Benne, determined so as not to leave the debate this time.

Why does Eubank think 2026 is his year?

Talking with Sky SportsEubank did not refrain from where he saw.

“This is a great fight and it is a fight that I look at carefully at, because after sending Conor Benn for the second time, one of these two men, Canelo Alvarez and Terenka Crawford, I would like to share the ring in 2026. I am here to fight gigantic names.”

For Eubank, Canelo remains the biggest attraction of sport. But if Crawford is shocking the world, Eubank says that the American immediately becomes the one who was chasing. Either way, I’m planning to be in Las Vegas.

What is different in the rematch with Benn?

The competition is personal, but Eubank claims that the fans will not see the same version they made in April.

“We have a recent game plan, we have a recent set of skills that we intend to exploit,” he said. “The first fight has met expectations, now we can go out and do it again.”

He won their first fight with a unanimous decision, but this time he says that there will be no signs of questions. As for the trilogy? Only if Benn earns.

“Every significant victory and I don’t see the third fight. But who knows? This could be another fight of the year.”

Does Eubank really fight away from the elite?

Eubank trust is never lacking. But if Benna pretends to be, no one will call him to face Canelo or Crawford. These two work at a different level.

Despite this, Eubank has a way to maintain significance. He is candid, sells fights, and he can deliver the right night. His inconsistency is a problem – from the high defeat of James Degale, to the defeat from Billy Joe Saunders, George Grows and Liam Smith.

If he dominates in Benn in November, he can at least argue about the shot at the winner of Alvarez – Crawford. Whatever less and the conversation falls flat.

My opinion: the dream of a great or live in reality?

Canelo in Super-Middle Wweight is a nightmare for everyone. Crawford is already historical. Eubank inserting into this conversation is bold, and maybe even unreal.

But ambition has always been part of the Eubank brand. He built a career of maintaining his name with the greatest moments of this sport. Whether it pays off in 2026 depends on one thing: how he copes with Benne.

Amy Kaplan is a box of boxing since she was 10 years elderly, which means that she spent most of her life, explaining to people that yes, they really prefer nights of fighting at parties. Now, writing to Boxing News 24, it covers everything from the fight for the title of world champion to perspectives swinging as at the day of payment. It combines acute analysis with sarcasm, calling for boxing policy and crossing the spin with the release of the press to give fans stories that actually matter.
