Final Prediction

The fight between these two was set for 2020, but it was postponed due to Benn’s drug test. Now, with a chance to settle things, a win is crucial. Eubank Jr’s recent victories were against opponents close to his age or slightly older.

This is important in boxing. Eubank faces the challenge of beating a younger fighter like Benn, who is seven years his junior. Eubank is a titleholder with plenty of experience, which gives him an edge. He plans to take the fight to the later rounds and aims for a knockout.

Conor Benn is a strategic fighter who knows how to land his jabs. He shows his skills early on and leaves it to the judges. This approach has worked for him, as nine of his wins were by decision. When he wins by knockout, he finishes the job before round five.

Benn is the underdog in this match, but he shouldn’t be underestimated. He has beaten older, more experienced fighters before. This is a tough matchup. If Benn wins, it will likely be by knockout. If Eubank wins, it will probably be by decision.
