Conor Benn reveals position on potential third fight with Chris Eubank Jr
Conor Benn says he will ignore calls for a trilogy with Chris Eubank Jr if he wants revenge on his bitter rival on Saturday.
Benn wants to avenge his own April failure to Eubank Jr during the teams’ second leg at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, live on DAZN pay-per-view.
If “The Destroyer” wins, there may be calls for a rubber fight, but the 29-year-old says he plans to return to welterweight in pursuit of a world title.
When asked what it would mean to beat Eubank Jr this time, Benn replied Froch About the fight: “It definitely wouldn’t make for a trilogy.
“No. I just want to get back to my weight.
“I want to win the WBC title [world title].
“My next fight is scheduled for 147 pounds.
“I want to continue my career.
“It’s a crowd-sourced fantasy fight. It’s never been done before. It’s generational.
“I made history in this fight, but ultimately I have a few goals I want to pursue.
“Even though he claims to be the people’s champion and all that, he’s almost done.
“I still want to win that world title for myself, just to mark it.
“I just want to say, ‘You know what, I did it.’
“Imagine winning the world title.
“At least I’d have something Chris never had.”
Benn’s promoter, Eddie Hearn said Professional boxing fans on Tuesday that Eubank Jr is expected to retire regardless of Saturday’s result.
Even though Benn hasn’t fought at 147 pounds in over three years, he’s ranked fourth in the WBC rankings, behind WBC champion Mario Barrios, who is reportedly in talks to defend his title against Ryan Garcia.
The Essex representative admits that he will be closely watching the fight scheduled for November 22 between WBO welterweight champion Brian Norman Jr. and Devin Haney, and is also eagerly following the fights with IBF champion Lewis Crocker and Barrios.
“I would like to fight Barrios,” he further said Inside the Ring.
“Once I win the WBC title, it’s challenging because I’m sitting there wanting to fight all the Americans, they’re killing it right now.
“Of course, Lewis Crocker is here, who won the IBF title, but Devin Haney and Brian Norman, I would love to win.”

On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.
McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.

The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
