According to Ring magazine, a rematch between Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn will take place in November at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The boxers were supposed to meet on September 20, but with Eubank Jr. reporting he was unprepared for that date, the fight has now been set for Saturday, November 15.
In a tense first meeting at 160 pounds, Eubank Jr. won a unanimous decision with all three judges scoring it 116-112 at the same venue in April.
He later revealed he had undergone eye surgery after being headbutted by Benn and spent two nights in hospital due to severe dehydration.
The fight captured the attention of boxing fans, reviving memories of the fierce rivalry between their fathers three decades ago.
Chi Eubank Sr., who had seemed estranged from his son for some time, made a surprise appearance before the fight and the two exchanged touching greetings.
Eubank Sr later noted that his son “saved the family honour” by inflicting the first defeat of Benn's professional career.
In a post on Instagram by Saudi Arabian influencer Turki Alalshih, Ring Magazine stated: “The Ring has learned that Sela has finalized a deal for Chris Eubank Jr.'s long-awaited rematch against Conor Benn, which will take place on November 15 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
“The event will be called 'The Call: Unfinished Business.'”
The event is organised by Sela and sponsored by Riyadh Season and Ring magazine.
