Conor Benn Inks Multi-Year Contract with Zuffa Boxing
Boxer Conor Benn has secured a long-term, multi-bout agreement with Zuffa Boxing. Benn's most recent fight, a 10-round win against two-time world champion Regis Prograis at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, marked his collaboration with Zuffa Boxing. This victory followed two epic bouts against Chris Eubank Jr. at the same venue. Benn had previously faced Eubank Jr. twice, reigniting a family rivalry, and although he lost the first bout, he won the second via decision after dropping Eubank Jr. twice. Following his victory over Eubank Jr., Benn moved down in weight and defeated Prograis at 150lbs, as he pursues major fights in the welterweight division. Zuffa Boxing's head, Dana White, confirmed that Benn has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract, consisting of five fights. White expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating that he personally and professionally likes Benn. Benn, who left Eddie Hearn's Matchroom Boxing after nearly a decade, expressed his excitement about the deal, stating that Zuffa Boxing shares his vision for the future and that he is eager to provide the public with the fights they desire.
