British boxing rivals Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn are set to renew their fierce family rivalry in a highly anticipated rematch on November 15 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The news was officially announced by organizers on Wednesday, confirming the sequel to their thrilling first bout last April.

Eubank Jr. won the initial 12-round, non-title middleweight clash by a unanimous 116-112 points decision, an outcome that mirrored the long-standing rivalry between their legendary fathers, Chris Eubank Sr. and Nigel Benn. The upcoming fight, a return to the same North London venue, has been dubbed “Unfinished Business.”

The rematch, which was originally eyed for a September date, was rescheduled after Eubank Jr. stated he would not be ready. The deal was finalized on Tuesday and will be sponsored by Riyadh Season and Ring Magazine, the latter of which is owned by Turki Alalshikh, Chairman of Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority. Sela, a subsidiary of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), will serve as the lead promoter for the event.

The first fight was a dramatic affair, not only for the action inside the ring but also for the events leading up to it. It was a significant moment for Eubank Jr. as he handed Benn his first professional loss. With both fighters now looking to solidify their positions and pursue world title aspirations, the rematch is expected to be another intense and physically demanding contest.
