Eubank Jr v Benn Odds: All Eyes on Tottenham as Rivalry Resumes

 

Legacy Fight Set for Weekend Showdown

A feud that once defined an era of British boxing is about to be reignited as Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn prepare to meet in the ring on Saturday, 26 April 2025, at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Over thirty years after their fathers, Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn, shared a fierce rivalry, the next generation now carries the burden – and the pride – of that storied history.

Dubbed Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, the 12-round middleweight clash is set to be a dramatic affair. Eubank Jr, the more experienced of the two, enters as the natural middleweight with the edge in size and ring miles. Benn, however, arrives unbeaten and determined, making a two-division leap in weight as he aims to carve out his own legacy.

 

Where and When?

The bout takes place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, a fitting stage for a fight of this significance. With a capacity of 62,000, the venue is expected to be packed for what promises to be one of the year’s biggest domestic boxing events.

The main card begins at 5:00 PM BST, with ring walks for the headline contest likely around 10:30 PM BST. Of course, this could shift slightly depending on the flow of the undercard.

 

Undercard Brings Extra Firepower

While the main event is the headline act, the supporting bill is stacked with exciting matchups that add real depth to the evening:

  • Anthony Yarde and Lyndon Arthur face off for a third time in their compelling light-heavyweight rivalry.
  • Liam Smith steps in with promising talent Aaron McKenna in a middleweight test of youth versus experience.
  • Cruiserweight contender Chris Billam-Smith returns to face the dangerous American Brandon Glanton.
  • And in a clash of unbeaten cruiserweights, Viddal Riley locks horns with Cheavon Clarke, a bout that many believe could steal the spotlight.

 

Prediction: Benn Bidding to Upset the Odds

Despite being priced as the 13/8 outsider with leading bookmaker Ladbrokes, Conor Benn enters the fight full of self-belief and momentum. Boasting an unblemished record of 23-0, including 14 knockouts, the 28-year-old brings youth, explosiveness, and a chip on his shoulder.

His fiery promise to stop Eubank inside four rounds adds further spice to the already simmering rivalry. If Benn can get inside early and smother Eubank’s rhythm, he has the power and pace to disrupt the more seasoned fighter. The key lies in whether he can maintain that aggression without leaving himself open to the counter shots that Eubank Jr is known for.

For his part, Eubank Jr – available at 4/7 – will be banking on his superior experience and composure under pressure. With proven durability and the ability to control a fight’s tempo, he’ll fancy his chances of breaking Benn down as the rounds progress.

A draw, meanwhile, is priced at 20/1, though with emotions running high and styles that promise action, few expect this one to go the distance without drama.

 

The Rivalry Continues

While the surnames are steeped in boxing history, this is a new story entirely. When Eubank Jr and Benn meet under the lights in north London, it won’t just be about settling old scores – it will be about forging a new legacy. Expect fireworks. Expect emotion. Expect a fight that could live long in the memory.
