Conor Benn has confirmed that a rematch with Chris Eubank Jr. is officially on the cards for later this year. Appearing on Ariel & Ade Live on DAZN Boxing, Benn stated, “I believe the contracts are already signed,” strongly suggesting that both fighters have agreed to a second showdown in 2025.
The pair first met on April 26, 2025, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where Eubank Jr. secured a unanimous decision win after 12 hard-fought rounds. All three judges scored the fight 116-112 in favour of Eubank, who outboxed Benn down the stretch. Post-fight, Eubank reportedly underwent surgery for a cut above his eye and was treated for dehydration — highlighting the physical toll of the contest on both men.
Promoter Eddie Hearn has previously stated that the rematch was built into the original two-fight deal, making this follow-up a contractual obligation rather than a surprise. While the official date is still under wraps, September 2025 has been mentioned as a potential target for the bout.

Benn, speaking with confidence about the rematch, said: “You thought that was a war? Wait until you see the rematch.” He also alluded to returning to his more natural weight class of 147 lbs, suggesting that the terms of the second fight could differ from the first.
