Conor Benn Inks Multi-Year Contract with Zuffa Boxing
Conor Benn has entered into a long-term partnership with Zuffa Boxing, solidifying his presence in the boxing world. Benn's most recent fight, a 10-round win against two-time world champion Regis Prograis at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, was facilitated by Zuffa Boxing. This bout marked Benn's third consecutive appearance at the football ground, following his highly publicized matches against Chris Eubank Jr. The rivalry between Benn and the Eubank family was rekindled last year, with Benn moving up to middleweight for their epic encounters. Although he lost the first bout, Benn secured a decision victory in the rematch. Subsequently, Benn returned to the welterweight division, competing against Prograis at 150lbs. Dana White, the head of Zuffa Boxing, confirmed that Benn has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract, comprising five fights. White expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating that he admires Benn both personally and professionally. Benn also expressed his excitement about the deal, citing the shared vision and enthusiasm for the future. At 29 years old, Benn is eager to capitalize on this opportunity, bringing high-profile fights to the American public and creating unforgettable nights for fans.
