Overview

• Chris Eubank Jr secured a unanimous decision victory over Conor Benn in a highly anticipated bout at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
• The fight was nearly canceled hours before the first bell due to a dispute over Benn’s gloves, which contained horse hair but were approved by the British Boxing Board of Control.
• Eubank Jr was hospitalized for severe dehydration after the fight, with his father, Chris Eubank Sr, describing his condition as 'touch and go.'
• A rematch is contracted for late September, but weight and rehydration clauses may be a point of contention for Eubank Jr, who struggled to meet the strict terms.
• Eubank Sr made a surprise appearance in his son’s corner after years of estrangement, donning a disguise to avoid detection before the fight.
