Conor Benn is set for a fight with welterweight world champion Ryan Garcia, but in the meantime, has assessed how his old foe Chris Eubank Jr. would get on against the American.
Benn and Eubank are two names that have been synonymous with British boxing for four decades. The family rivalry has passed down through the generations and the last few years has been dominated by Conor and Jr and their two back-to-back fights.
The first came in April 2025 after a long build-up and an extended ban for Benn following him failing a drug test. After 12 hard-fought rounds, Eubank got a points win after using his size and experience to keep the younger man at bay, but in the rematch six months later, it was Benn who twice had Eubank down and ran out with a victory on the cards.
Since then, he has also beaten former world champion Regis Prograis as he prepares for his own world title battle against Garcia.
In a new post on social media, Benn had no doubt who would come out on top were Eubank to fight Garcia, who won his WBC title back in February when he beat Mario Barrios over 12 rounds.
“Eubank smashes Garcia…
What do you think I’m gonna do to him.
I’m locked in! 👹”
Many people have advised Eubank, who is now 36 and a veteran of 39 fights, to retire, but the man himself has said he will come back when he is ready following the birth of twin children.
