It is finally time for Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn to face off in the ring after a postponed fight and three years of waiting.
The much-anticipated fight will take place on Saturday night (26 April) at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Betting app Stakemate is offering fans a free £20 bet when they sign up here and bets can be made in the run-up.
Chris Eubank Jr is 8/13 to secure a victory and Conor Benn is narrowly second favourite to win at 7/5, while a draw is 14/1 on Stakemate.
Originally set to face each other back in 2022, this was called off after Benn tested positive for a banned substance. His ban has now been lifted and the fight can now get underway.
The pair’s history goes back a generation after Chris Eubank and Nigel Benn, the pair’s fathers, fought in the 1990s. There was no love lost between the pair and this weekend will see the return of the family rivalries.
Eubank Jr, 35, has boxed more than Benn due to the ban. He has a record of 34-3 (25 KOs), while Benn 28, has won all 23 of his professional fights with 14 KOs to his name.
You can also place a bet on the undercard with Stakemate, including the £20 free bet.
Anthony Yarde is overwhelming favourite to defeat Lyndon Arther at light heavyweight. Arther won the same fight over 12 rounds in 2020 but Yarde won a 2023 rematch with a knockout victory in four rounds. You can get 1/8 for Yarde and 6/1 for Arther to shock his opponent once again.
Yarde is coming off an unsuccessful in his world title challenge against Artur Beterbiev, while Arthur was beaten by Dmitry Bivol in his last time out.
There are two former world champions on the undercard. Cruiserweight Chris Billam-Smith is 10/11 favourite to beat Brandon Glanton, while former middleweight champion Liam Smith is 13/10 to beat Aaron McKenna. His opponent is 3/2 in that fight on Stakemate
Elsewhere Viddal Riley is 9/16 favourite to beat Cheavon Clarke at cruiseweight. Riley is undefeated and a Clarke upset is listed at 3/2 on Stakemate.
