London – Chris Eubank Jr. Not only did he decide his refusing dispute with Conor Benn on Saturday, but also maintained his family tradition.
But now it’s time for Eubank Jr. He left the competition and continued the fight against Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
The Eubank family now has 2-0 (1 draw) in one of the longest and most notable boxing competitions. Unanimous winnings with Eubank Jr. (116-112, 116-112, 116-112) After a fierce battle, there is three years later, won by Conor Nigel’s dad for the title of world average in 1990.
It was also a ecstatic moment when Eubank Jr. He was again connected to his dad after a recent accident. Last week, Chris Jr regretted his dad Chris, who recently called him a “disgrace” for breaking the egg at Benna at a press conference, but in an unexpected jump Chris SR arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium with his son to see him later, to provide inspiration.
The appearance of Chris Sr. It was a blow we didn’t see, and it was a huge enhance in morale for Eubank Jr. (35-3, 25 Kos), which had moments of domination in battle. He kept Benn’s furious assault and answered his own, while his stab was a reliable force all the time.
In the 4th round, Eubank was educated by Belter of the upper right, which Benn did well to absorb. Just as Chris went through the abrasion of the meeting to throw himself at the hurt Nigel and force the stop in the 9th round of WBO World Title Title Walk in 1990, Chris Jr. He bounced off the unorganized round 10 to dominate the last rounds in the middle weight duel.
Benn, 28, (23-1, 14 KO) looked into trouble in the 12th round, but boldly resisted the attack during his first professional failure.
Can this victory over Conor Bennem be just as transforming in Chris Jr.’s career as the victory of Chris SR over Nigel Benn was for him? 35 -year -old Chris Jr from Brighton had a year when his dad defeated Nigel in Birmingham to win his first world championship title.
Chris Jr. He has not yet won the full version of one of the four world titles, but his victory over Conor should lead him to the title of world shot this year. He deals with number 3 from WBC and IBF World Enderning Bodies, whose masters are Janibek Alimkhanuly and Carlos Adames, respectively.
However, taking into account his problems with achieving a weight limit of 160 pounds, it would not be a surprise for Eubank JR to act in a super medium weight. He failed to achieve the weight limit on Friday by 0.05 pounds and had to pay a fine of $ 500,000 (375,000 pounds).
Eubank Jr. He also had to follow the Rehydration clause 10 pounds, which means that on Saturday morning he could not weigh over 170 pounds. Eubank Jr would be a tough fight for Alimkhanuly, but the English warrior can now go in a different direction.
Larger and more lucrative possibilities are offered for Eubank Jr. In the Super Middle Wweight, for example, a shot in the most crucial attraction Boxing Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KO), 34, from Mexico.
WBC-WBBA WBBO World Super Middle Wweight will face Cuban William Scull (23-0, 9 KO) on May 3, and if Canelo wins to face the American Terenka Crawford on September 13.
The Riyadowy season of Saudi Arabia has already discussed the potential of Canelo and Eubank Jr. Clings in 2026, but this schedule line allows Eubank Jr. fight again this year.
Benn, who lives in Essex after upbringing in Spain and Australia, suggested that he would remain in medium weight after the fight, but can find better opportunities to get the first title of the world in a younger medium weight or in welterweight.
Benn began 2025, calling for a fight compared to Mario Barros, a WBC welterweight master and took 3rd place with the world management body. It was the best night of Conor’s career, but it is still not enough to consider him on an equal footing with my dad.
Benn (42-5-1, 35 KO), 61 and Eubank (45-5-2, 23 KO), 58 who were strangely sitting next to each other in Tottenham, were larger stars in Great Britain, and also achieved more in the ring.
Both won world titles in medium and super medium weight, while Conor and Chris Jr. They haven’t had the full world title yet. The fight against Canelo would raise his career Eubank Jr. At the highest level so far – and it will probably be prioritized to anything else, including a rematch with Benn.
Defeating Canelo would overshadow even every victory that his father managed, and the lucrative duel with Mexico must now be Eubank Jr.’s focus.
