On November 15, 2025, at a sold-out Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, Conor Benn (24-1, 14 KOs) exacted revenge on Chris Eubank Jr. (35-4, 25 KOs) in their highly anticipated welterweight rematch. The first clash in April ended in a controversial points win for Eubank, but this 12-round war saw Benn deliver a one-sided boxing clinic, winning unanimously 119-107, 116-110, 118-108. In a 35-year family rivalry—stemming from Nigel Benn’s epic bouts with Eubank Sr.—Conor finally gave “The Destroyer” dynasty its first triumph, squaring the ledger and hinting at a trilogy’s end.
Benn entered sharper, wiser, and more composed than in the chaotic opener. At 29, the Essex southpaw controlled the ring’s center from the bell, using feints, crisp jabs, and relentless body work to dismantle Eubank’s rhythm. The 35-year-old Eubank, fighting at 160 pounds for the first time in years, started tentatively, his counters landing flush but lacking menace.
Early Rounds (1-4): Benn seized initiative, pressuring with one-twos and body shots. Round 1 was tight—Benn’s right hand edged it—but he stole 2 and 4 with volume. Eubank nicked Round 3 via an uppercut, yet Benn’s footwork neutralized threats, leading 39-37 after four.
Mid-Fight Momentum (5-8): Exchanges heated up, but Benn’s output prevailed. He outjabbed Eubank in 5 and 7, targeting the liver to sap power. Eubank rallied in 6 and 8 with hooks, briefly evening it at 77-75, but Benn’s head movement and recovery kept him ahead, 68-65 through 7.
Championship Stretch (9-11): Here, Benn elevated to elite level. Round 9’s hard one-two rocked Eubank; 10 saw stiff jabs and combos; 11 was a body-sniping seminar. Eubank faded, absorbing punishment without reply, trailing 107-102 entering the finale.
Dramatic Finish (Round 12): Desperation fueled Eubank’s early flurry, but Benn countered savagely. A mid-round one-two dropped Eubank to the canvas for the first time. As he rose, Benn unleashed a barrage, capping it with chopping rights that floored him again seconds before the bell. Referee Howard Foster waved off any further action, though Eubank beat the count. The knockdowns sealed a 10-7 round, turning potential rout into spectacle.
Benn’s evolution shone: gone was the reckless brawler; in his place, a tactical surgeon with 147-pound pedigree, landing 40% of power shots while evading 65% of Eubank’s. Eubank, outlanded 220-140, looked a step slow—his jab ineffective, power diluted by age and weight. Post-fight, Benn beamed: “I got one on you, Nige,” to his father, adding, “This is the end of the Benn-Eubank saga. Done and finished.” Eubank, gracious in defeat, eyed retirement: “Conor’s a beast. Respect.”
This win catapults Benn toward WBC title shots—naming Mario Barrios, Ryan Garcia, and Devin Haney as targets. For Eubank, questions loom at middleweight. A trilogy? Benn says no, but boxing’s bad blood rarely fades. At 500 words, this rematch cements Benn as Britain’s rising destroyer.
