Chris Eubank Jr emerged victorious against Conor Benn, inflicting a first career defeat on his rival in their much-hyped middleweight showdown. In a clash that drew from a rich vein of historical animosity, Eubank Jr secured a unanimous points decision at London's sold-out Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The pulsating 12-round contest saw both fighters display relentless aggression from the start, with all three judges scoring the bout 116-112 in favor of Eubank Jr. The intense spectacle captivated the 65,000 spectators, keenly aware of the personal and professional stakes.

The bout had to be rescheduled after an initial setback in 2022 when Benn tested positive for a banned substance.
