Eubank Jr v Benn - what happened last time?

Eubank Jr was a slight favourite before the first meeting, and the man from Brighton delivered the goods. Junior was famously reunited with his father after a famous feud that rumbled on for years. With Senior by his side, Chris boxed his way to a convincing victory on all three scorecards. He won by four rounds on all three cards, and it could've been more.

Benn took too long to settle into the first fight, finding himself well behind on the cards entering the later rounds. The knockout artist from Essex then went in search of the KO he needed, but found Eubank a stubborn, fit, and fully prepared opponent. Team Benn, including father Nigel, know Conor must go on the attack from the first bell.

Junior on a three-fight winning streak

Eubank Jr enters the ring with a proud professional record, detailing 35 wins against three defeats, beating 25 opponents inside the distance. Eubank's first loss came against Billy Joe Saunders at Docklands back in 2014. He was also outpointed by George Groves less than four years later and stopped in round four by Liam Smith in Manchester.

Since that last defeat, Eubank has claimed his revenge by beating "Beefy" in round ten of a rematch. He then downed Poland's Kamil Szeremeta inside seven rounds in Saudi Arabia, before that huge points victory over Benn earlier this year. Fancy Junior to snatch another victory, settling the score with an old rival?

You can back Eubank Jr to win again at 8/151.53 on the Betfair Sportsbook. There, you'll also find another points victory at 15/8 and the KO/TKO at the same odds in the method of victory market available on the app and website.

Destroyer seeking revenge

Conor Benn makes the short trip from Essex to North London with his CV showing 23 wins against one defeat. The only man to beat Benn to date is the same warrior starting in the opposite corner on fight night. That means Conor has a fantastic opportunity to right the wrongs of last time, be more ambitious and push for a career-defining result.

A knockout victory over Eubank Jr would ramp up the excitement levels, ensuring a decider is unavoidable. Does Conor have the power to shock Chris? The underdog brings a 61% knockout average and has stopped two of his previous five opponents inside four rounds. If he can get the crowd behind him early, Team Benn will fancy their chances of a shock result.

Fancy Conor Benn to beat Chris Eubank Jr and make it 1-1? You can follow Benn at the 6/42.50 available on the Betfair Sportsbook. The method of victory odds show Conor is 10/3 to win by knockout, and 4/1 to impress the judges and bank a points decision.

Eubank Jr v Benn II Prediction: Trust repeat over revenge

Having set the scene, I'll now finalise my Eubank Jr vs Benn betting prediction for Betfair, and I'm expecting more of the same. Eubank Jr showed in the first fight that he's bigger, fitter, more experienced, and a better boxer than his rival. He won by four rounds, and many thought it was an even wider margin of victory.

Benn knows he must try something different, so I expect him to explode out of the traps. That'll play into Junior's hands. Chris will box at range, counter his on-rushing opponent, and impress the scoring judges. He pushed hard for the late stoppage last time, and the bad blood between the two ensures he'll shoot for a showreel KO/TKO. But the safer bet is on Eubank Jr winning on points again.
