Eubank Agrees to £1 Million Wager with Hearn

IBO middleweight champion Chris Eubank Jr. has agreed to make a £1 million wager with Matchroom Boxing CEO Eddie Hearn on his victory against Hearn's fighter Conor Benn.

Eubank and Benn are set to face off in a boxing match on April 26 in London.

Chris Eubank Jr.
I formally accept your million-pound bet and the million pounds will be our own personal money. Not company money or purse money. Just a straight up bet between me and you. The money will go into escrow and the winner will take all. Now I look forward to watching you weasel your way out of this bet.

Eubank last fought in October 2024, where he knocked out Kamil Szeremeta in the seventh round to claim the IBO middleweight title. His record stands at 34 wins (25 by knockout) and three losses.

Benn's most recent fight was in February 2024, where he won by unanimous decision against Peter Dobson. He boasts a record of 23 wins (14 by knockout) and no losses.
