No More Conor Benn? Eubank Told to Chase Legacy, Not Glory.

Chris Eubank Jr should pursue a “legacy-defining” clash with Canelo Alvarez instead of rekindling his rivalry with Conor Benn.

Harlem Eubank Wants Jr to Target Canelo, Not Benn

Harlem Eubank believes cousin Chris Eubank Jr should pursue a “legacy-defining” clash with Canelo Alvarez instead of rekindling his rivalry with Conor Benn.
“Take the biggest fight in the sport and bow out,” he urged.

The Benn Rivalry: Settled but Not Silent

Eubank Jr outpointed Benn in April, two years after their original bout was cancelled over Benn’s failed drug tests.
A rematch is possible, but Harlem is sceptical it’ll happen, according to BBC sport.

Weigh-In Controversy Still Looms

Eubank Jr had to fight under a strict rehydration clause and was fined £375,000 for narrowly missing weight.
Harlem criticised such tactics, saying they “should be eradicated from the sport.”

A Bigger Prize. Facing Canelo in 2026?

Canelo is tied up with Terence Crawford until at least late 2025.
But Harlem believes a 2026 bout could be Eubank Jr’s crowning moment and a perfect way to end his career.
