Chris Eubank Jr. vs Conor Benn Preview Nov. 15th, 2025
Conor Benn and former IBO Middleweight and Super Middleweight Champion Chris Eubank Jr. will go at it once again in a 12-round middleweight tilt this Saturday, November 15th. The battle between the two Brits takes place at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England again and can be seen live in most nations on DAZN pay-per-view. It’s an instant rematch as the two first met in a slugfest in April with Eubank winning by unanimous decision. It’s a huge domestic fight as their famous fathers Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank fought each other twice in the early 1990’s with Eubank winning by a ninth-round stoppage in 1990 and the pair fighting to a 12-round draw three years later. This weekend’s bout is at middleweight again even though Benn has been campaigning as a welterweight and Eubank as a super middleweight and middleweight during their careers. Before meeting in April, Eubank fought in October, 2024 and stopped Kamil Szeremeta in the seventh round for the IBO Belt after dropping him in the first and second stanzas. Benn saw action in February, 2024 and downed Peter Dobson by a 12-round unanimous decision.

My Pick
The 36-year-old Eubank Jr enters the ring with a mark of 35-3 with 25 Ko’s. He won the IBO Super Middleweight Title in 2017 when he stopped Renold Quinlan in the 10th round then defended it against Arthur Abraham and Avni Yildirim before losing it to George Groves via unanimous decision in 2018. His first pro defeat came in 2014 though when Billy Joe Saunders beat him by split decision for the European, British and Commonwealth Middleweight Championship Belts. His third defeat came at the hands of former world champion Liam Smith via fourth-round TKO in January, 2023, with Eubank halting Smith in the 10th round in the rematch eight months later.
Eubank beat James DeGale by unanimous decision in 2019 to regain the IBO Super Middleweight Crown. However, he then dropped down in weight to compete as a middleweight. He possesses good power and boxing skills and has 246 rounds of experience under his belt since turning pro in 2011 following a fine amateur career. He’s also beaten Nick Blackwell, Dmitrii Chudinov, Gary O’Sullivan and Bradley Price. Eubank stands 5-feet-11-inches tall with a 72.5-inch and has often displayed impressive power up to now as 71.4 per cent of his wins have come by stoppage including six of his past 10.
He’s been stopped, dropped, wobbled and cut a couple of times in the ring, but actually has a pretty good chin overall. Eubank’s at his best when he overwhelms his opponent with his relentless punching and is hard to keep at bay because of it. However, he’s slowed down a bit offensively now and he isn’t the hardest guy to hit if he gets goaded into a slugfest, but most boxers prefer not to go toe-to-toe with him. Saunders beat him by outboxing him in a close fight while the loss against Groves was more of a brawl and he arguably got nailed with an elbow against Smith in his loss to him.
As for Benn, he’s almost seven years younger as he’s 29 and fought as an amateur in Australia with 20 wins in 22 contests before turning pro in 2016. Since then he’s boxed 118 rounds and has compiled a fine perfect record of 23-1 with 14 Ko’s with his only defeat coming to Eubank. He also has pretty good power in his fists as 60.9 per cent of his wins have come by stoppage but has gone the distance in his past three fights and in four of his last six. Benn stands 5-feet-8-inches tall with a 68-inch reach so gives up three inches in height and 4.5-inches in reach to Eubank.
Benn has a pretty solid chin but has been on the deck as a pro when Cedrick Peynaud dropped him twice in the first round back in 2017. However, Benn picked himself up and returned the favour in the fifth and sixth rounds to earn a six-round decision. The two met again a year later with Benn taking a 10 round unanimous decision to capture the vacant WBA Continental Welterweight Title.
He’s defended it six times as he stopped Jussi Koivula and Steve Jamoye, beat Sebastian Formella by decision and then stopped Samuel Vargas in just 80 seconds in 2021 and took a 10-round unanimous decision over Adrian Granados five months later before stopping Chris Algieri in four and Chris Van Heerden in two. Benn was brought along relatively slowly to start his career and didn’t really face a legitimate world contender until meeting Eubank. And let’s not forget this is just his fifth fight since December 2021 when he halted Chris Algieri.
Prediction…
The first fight saw plenty of fists flying as Eubank connected on 367 of his 912 punches and Benn landed 215 of 593. Eubank’s jab was also effective as he was successful on 140 of 350 for a 40 per cent connection rate. Therefore Benn really needs to evade the jab this time around if possible but that’s easier said than done because he gives up reach and height and needs to work his way inside. Eubank is the naturally bigger man with greater pro experience and even though Benn is younger and usually more aggressive in the ring it was Eubank who threw and landed more punches in the first fight. There’s been a lot of bad blood between the two and this could be another classic between the two families. I was on the fence in the first fight but went with Benn when I had to make a prediction. I figured he’s more explosive and aggressive and would go for a KO if he wobbled Eubank. Anything could happen here and even if it’s half as good as the first brawl the fans are in for another treat. However this time I’ll go with Benn due to what I witnessed in the first fight.
Anything could happen but Eubank’s size advantage and punch output may decide it again.
