Eubank vs. Benn rematch on track for November

According to a Ring Magazine social media post that was retweeted by Turki Alalshikh, Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn will meet for a rematch on November 15th at Tottenham Stadium in England. The venue will be the same as their earlier encounter, which was won by Eubank.  Benn responded to the news by tweeting, "I was ready in September but I’ll be even more ready for November. See you soon, Chris Eubank Jr. #redemption." Alalshikh, the head of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, bankrolled the first fight and is likely doing the same for the rematch.
 
In April, Eubank triumphed over Benn by unanimous decision after an exciting twelve-round battle. Both men had their moments of success, but in the end it was Eubank who came out victorious by a trio of 116-112 scorecards. ​It was a worthy third chapter to  the family feud that includes two bouts between the boxers' father, Chris Eubank, Sr. and Nigel Benn, both former champions. In those two fights, Eubank got a win and a draw. The sons could be headed for a rematch.
 
If Benn does get the chance to avenge the loss, he knows exactly what he will need to do to defeat Eubank. "[It was my] first fight at 160. I had Eubank hurt multiple times, three, four times in there," the former welterweight said. "I just couldn’t get a finish. I’ll make sure for next time that a finish is there."
