Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn is the biggest fight of 2025 so far in the UK and it is finally here.
The two sons of famous fighting fathers will get it on at last at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in north London tonight (Saturday April 26).
A crowd of more than 60,000 is in attendance for what should be a spectacular show, streamed live on DAZN globally and on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK.
Friday’s weigh-in provided yet more drama and beef, with Eubank Jr missing the 160lbs limit as he scaled 160.05. That cost him a reported fine of £375,000. Next we await the fight day weigh-in, with a 170lbs rehydration clause in effect, the drama is by no means over.
The only thing that is certain, is that we do have a fight, and we also have the full schedule and running order. Here it is.
