Benn’s power faces reality in his Eubank Jr. Rematch

There are nine days left until Conor Benn is back in action as Ring Magazine sells tickets for the “Unfinished Business” on DAZN PPV in his rematch with Chris Eubank Jr. on November 15.

Nine Days And Counting

Benn (23-1, 14 KOs) and Eubank Jr. (35-3, 25 KOs) is wrapping up their 12-round middleweight rematch at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Tottenham in London.

In a post this morning on X, a short video clip of Conor Benn, 28, is shown as he knocks out the unfortunate 37-year-old former WBO light welterweight champion Chris Algieri in the final fight of his career on December 11, 2021.

Benn looked devastating in the clip, knocking Algieri out cold in the fourth round. Algieri’s career had already started falling apart years earlier, when he lost three out of four fights between 2014 and 2016.

Tickets are still available for the Eubank Jr. vs. Benn 2 event. The reports are that it is selling well. British fans still have an appetite to see the two together, despite the finality of their previous contest, which took place earlier this year on April 26, 2025. The event retails for $59.99 on DAZN PPV for US fans and £24.99 for the UK public.

Eubank’s tactical blueprint

The more experienced Eubank Jr. used his size, combination punches and grappling ability to beat Benn, winning a 12-round unanimous decision by scores of 116-112, 116-112 and 116-112. Conor appeared in trouble at times in the later rounds when Eubank Jr. took over the fight with his non-stop shots.

Benn, who is a potshot type fighter, lacked the offensive skills and defense to match the fighting style that Eubank Jr. brought to the table in that competition.

If Conor fails to score an early knockout, the rematch is likely to be more of the same on November 15th. His archaic, single-shot shotgun style doesn’t work against the rapid-fire style that Eubank Jr. not used.

Benn’s one-shot problem

Benn is too reliant on scoring knockouts with his power and has failed to adapt his game to throw combinations. This will not only require a change in style, but also conditioning. He will need to improve his stamina to match Eubank Jr’s output. Benn has not shown the ability to throw in high volume during his career.

Matchroom’s gentle nutrition

A lot of that has to do with the low-level opposition his promoters at Matchroom put him through. Benn’s opposition quickly crumbled under his power. So he wasn’t forced to adjust his game. Benn should have competed against true world class level fighters years ago.
