The fighters' history is packed with drama. They've traded verbal jabs, egg-slaps, and faced controversy with Benn's failed drug test and Eubank Jr missing the weight limit. Their first fight lived up to the hype, with both men throwing big shots from the start.
Former WBC cruiserweight champion Tony Bellew thinks Benn might have the edge this time. He told talkSPORT:
"I favor Conor Benn. He's the younger fighter, he's taken less damage, he's had a shorter career, and he's got less experience."
Bellew believes the timing of the rematch is crucial. He says a quicker turnaround benefits Benn, while Eubank Jr might need more time to recover from their hard-fought first bout.
The weight class factor also plays a big role. Bellew explained:
"If Conor goes back to 147 he ain't gonna be fully ready to go back to 160 straight away, he can't do it. And for Chris Eubank Jr he cannot go anywhere near anything else but 160, cause the minute Chris Eubank Jr goes to 168 he ain't coming anywhere near 160, so it's got a very short lifespan this rematch."
In their first clash, Eubank Jr's natural size advantages seemed to make the difference. Now, fans wonder if Benn can change things up for the rematch. We'll have to wait and see what happens when these two step into the ring again.
The upcoming rematch between Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr has boxing fans on the edge of their seats. With so much bad blood between them, it's sure to be another action-packed fight.
