“Superstar” Benn
Despite winning the 12-round unanimous decision, Eubank Jr. (35-3, 25 KO) has made a lot of damage to the face. There are reports that he suffered a broken jaw in battle.
Considering how the swollen jaw looked after later, it is believed that he suffered this injury. He won through the results 116-112, 116-112 and 116-112. Hearn believed that these results were too wide, but he admits that Eubank Jr. He probably did enough to win.
Benna’s performance (23-1, 14 KO) had hearn tearing his eyes during the interview. He says Conor is now “Superstar”. Perhaps he jumped a bit from the pistol because he lost, and there are many better fighters aged 160 than Eubank Jr. This could have made him a mismatch.
Hearn says that Benn can win world titles in 147 and 154. Presumably he talks about Benn potentially defeating WBC WBC Master Mario Barrios and WBC and WBO 154 LB Champ Sebastian Fund. They are the only two with whom Conor would have any chance.
Hospitalized eubank
“Chris Eubank Jr is now in the hospital. The media say he has a broken jaw. I don’t know if it is so. We don’t want too many such fights,” said Eddie Hearn IFL TV He does not want him, his warrior, Conor Benn, to be worn in additional wars, such as the one we were to be today, between him and Chris Eubank Jr.
Benn hit Eubank Jr. With a few massive shots at the beginning of the fight, before he came up with how to neutralize his power. It is understandable why he suffered a face injury.
Hearn is overlooked that Benn also looked contrite. His face was seriously swollen. It was from many power beats that Eubank Jr hit him. 367 out of 912 total blows for 40.24% of the connection speed.
“In 11 and 12, when there was nothing left in the tank, he never stopped trying,” said Hearn, who was close to tears, talking about Bennie.
Conor tried, but in both rounds he took a bad beating. To show what Benn was implied with. Eubank Jr. he threw 109 blows in round 11 and 122 In round 12. It is a crazy number that casts an average weight, especially overdue in combat.
You can understand why Hearn can have some concerns about sending Conor back to fight this guy again, because it will probably be equally bad in the rematch. Hearn, of course, wants to match Benn in great battles as long as possible because he is a producer of money in British boxing.
Benna’s appeal
It is true that he is not talented enough to overcome the best semi -medium scales, such as Jaron Ennis or younger medium scales, such as Bakhram Murtazaliev. He can defeat some guys when they are properly matched. Today we have seen that Benn could not defeat Eubank Jr and it will not be otherwise in the rematch.
“Conor Benn is now a adolescent man who is a superstar in British boxing, even around the world. My phone is blown up in America. So many people watched that” this kid is unreal “. He can go to any arena in a country at the age of 147 and can win world titles in 147 and 154. So we have to do it well.
“He changed his life financially tonight. He is good for life. Of course, it’s always critical. He wants a rematch. His Excellency [Turki Alalshikh] He wants a rematch. They even announced the date back to Spurs in September. So it is very likely that this can happen. Let the boys remain and look at Eubank injuries – said Hearn.

On Saturday, the Canelo coefficient is a rematch between recently knocked out the super medium weight Jaime Munguia and Bruno Surace. This fight did not cause any noise with fans, which means that it was a waste to include it in such a significant position in the hope of attracting fans to buy an event.
The event can be bought with the Ryan Garcia vs. Friday card. Rolando “Rolly” Romero as part of the weekend knockout package USD 90.
Indigent support for the Canelo program
– Canelo Álvarez vs. William Scull – Bruno Surace vs. Jaime Mungia – Martin Bale vs. Ephrace ajagba – Badou Jack vs. Ryan Rozicki – Marco Verde vs. Michel Polina – Brayan Leon vs. Aaron Guerrero
Mismatch in Riyadh
As for the idea, for Canelo to create a false marketing noise for his circus fight with 37-year-olds Terenca Crawford In October he should fight David Benavidez. It would be an ideal way for Alvarez to build what Alaalshikh calls Turki “Great fight” against Crawford. However, Canelo does not want to fight Benavidez because there is too much risk. Terenka is not popular enough among random who buy PPV events in the USA to make it a “great fight”. Casuals want Canelo to show courage and fight with Benavidez.
People believe that the justification of Canelo (62-2-2, 39 KO) is used to fight with the unclear, badly lost William Scull (23-0, 9 KO), saying that this is the undisputed championship of 168 pounds to enhance interest in the Terence Crawford match in October, it is not enough.
Fans are not impressed by fighters who are currently capturing the undisputed championships, perceiving them as maneuvered for these positions with skilful preparation by their cunning promoters. You see confined fighters such as Devin Haney, capturing the undisputed title in Lightweight.
Undenders, he doesn’t sell
People see a Canelo excuse to fight Scull for the undisputed championship as an excuse to express his record and obtain another gigantic day of payment without the risk of his skin before the best. This fight is only Foxhole, so that Canelo could hide To avoid Benavidez and other killers.
The justification of mismatch on Saturday, as was the case with the unquestioned title, fell on the deaf ears with fans, because they no longer care about this title. They consider it an exaggeration, because the winners are often defeated and are not the best.
Fans want to see how Canelo is fighting these killers:
– David Benavidez – David Morrell – Diego Pacheco – Dmitryry Bivol – Artur Beterbiev – Oslyys Iglesias
London – Conor Benn said he has respect for Chris Eubank Jr. After their brutal battle 12 on Saturday, but his rival “is still not my cup of tea.”
Over three decades after their fathers Chris Eubank Sr. And Nigel Benn – who were present at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium – fought in two epic fights, their sons gave the British public to remember and added another chapter in their family competition.
Getting to their fight was personal and although Benn said he had respect for Eubank Jr., there is still a level of dislike of his opponent.
“She is still not my cup of tea, you know what I mean?” Benn said his press conference after the fight.
“I would still not sit down and talk to him. But of course it is [respect]. I mean … yes … of course there is respect. We went together 12 rounds, but … he is Chris, right? “I like it as much as possible, taking into account the situation.”
There is a rematch clause, and Benn said that considering how close their first competition was, he would like to take the second fight against Eubank Jr. However, Benn also said that he would look back to the welterweight to fight for the title of world champion, which is the preferred option of promoter Eddie Hearna.
“I would like to see how he returned to 147 [pounds] And fight for the title of world champion “listened to”. “We have shoes [Jaron Ennis] There and you want to unite and become unquestioned and get up. The belts will be available. “
Regardless of this, Hearn said that Benn is currently one of the biggest attractions of British boxing.
“I know British public opinion and I know what will happen. Even in failure, this kid has become a superstar today, on the other side of the Atlantic,” said Hearn.
“It’s not just about throwing him straight into the war, trying to avenge the failure in the weight class, in which he probably should not be.
“I think he can win a rematch and I think this is the biggest fight in Great Britain, one of the largest in the world.” But we have to think carefully about what we do. “
Chris Eubank Sr. He appeared in his son’s most essential fight when Chris Eubank Jr. He provided a huge payment in Great Britain.
The British boxing legend, which dominated this sport in the 90s, made a dramatic entrance to the elevator, which even surprised the broadcasters and the crowd on Saturday.
When the cameras focused on the elevator referred to at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium during the coefficient, the image of Eubank Sr. He appeared next to his son. The reaction of over 65,000 participants was overwhelming, because huge doping broke out in the whole place.
Conor Benn was reflected in the wardrobe, where the rival Nigel Benn tried to peaceful his offspring.
A moment later Eubank Jr. He started to the ring, walking to the Eubank SR theme “just the best” of the iconic and delayed Small Turner.
The rest, as they say, is a story.
Eubank Jr. He got involved in the battle, which he probably did not plan before the fight, but one that was necessary in given circumstances.
The couple exchanged blows in the same form as their parents, because the opportunity gave them a goal for their less than impressive boxing careers.
When the victory of 116-112 after twelve rounds appeared after twelve rounds, Eubank confessed to Benn’s skills.
Matchroom boxing
“Everything surprised me. I did not know that he had what he had in him,” Eubank pointed out after this unanimous decision. “Really not.
“You know, I thought he would break him early. I underestimated him and did not train such a fight. I did not know that he had in him; he never showed it. But on the other hand he never had to show it. He had to show it tonight, and I also did it
He added: “I knew that I was able to do it. I just needed someone who led me out. I am not going to lie, I did not expect that he would be a guy. But the fact that our fathers did what they did all years ago, brings out a different soul, a different spirit.
“It was we both showed here tonight.”
Speaking at a press conference after the fight, Benn stated that if the payment closed a certain closure of Eubank with his father, he had no problem with losing.
“Relations with my father is unique, I would choose a relationship with my dad because of boxing,” said Benn.
“If this fight connected Chris and his dad, he is worth his weight in gold.”
It is expected that the rematch will occur when both men recover because Eubank vs Benn lives after a 35-year break.
However, if the senior did not appear to delight his average son, Benn would undoubtedly celebrate victory.
