Conor Benn Inks Multi-Year Agreement with Zuffa Boxing
Conor Benn has entered into a multi-fight, multi-year contract with Zuffa Boxing. His most recent bout was a 10-round victory over former two-time world champion Regis Prograis at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which was also under the Zuffa Boxing banner. Benn has had a successful run at the football ground, with his previous two epic fights against Chris Eubank Jr. The rivalry between Benn and the Eubank family was rekindled last year when he faced Junior twice, first losing but then securing a decision victory in the rematch. After moving down in weight, Benn faced Prograis at 150lbs, marking his pursuit of major fights in the welterweight division. Zuffa Boxing head Dana White confirmed that Benn has joined on a two-and-a-half-year deal, consisting of five fights. White expressed his excitement about the deal, stating that he likes Benn personally and professionally. Benn also expressed his enthusiasm, stating that he is excited to have secured the deal and that Zuffa Boxing shares his vision for the future. At 29 years old, Benn is looking to capitalize on his prime and give the public the fights they want, with all the big names in America being a major draw for him. His goal is to create memorable nights for his fans, with his new partnership poised to bring about exciting opportunities.
