Previous news: Chris Eubank Jr finally signed his half of the contract to fight Conor Benn on October 8 at the O2 and settle the family feud.
The pair will meet at a catchweight of 157lbs, with a strict rehydration clause in place to stop 32-year-old middleweight Eubank Jr coming in excessively bigger than the 25-year-old welterweight.
Benn, whose dad Nigel was the middleweight and super-middleweight champion when he fought Eubank's father Chris Sr in the 1990s, will jump two weight divisions for the super-fight. The pair will meet at a catchweight of 156lb almost 29 years to the day since their fathers last fought to a draw at Old Trafford in Manchester.
“I grew up watching their legendary battles and always wanting to emulate that, and find my own arch nemesis... could this now be Conor Benn? We will find out,” said Eubank Jr.“This fight is for the legacy and was an opportunity I felt I couldn't pass up,” said Benn. “My team and I had other options on the table as I'm currently ranked top 5 with all governing bodies at Welterweight and no doubt I'm looking for a World Championship fight very soon, but this fight is embedded with so much history and I know it's one the public really want to see. To me this fight is personal - it's more than titles and rankings, this is unfinished business between our families!”
