CHRIS EUBANK JR. vs CONOR BENN 2
Middleweight – Main Event (12 Rounds):
Chris Eubank Jr. enters this rematch with momentum and experience firmly on his side. The 36-year-old veteran has won three consecutive fights, including a dominant points win over Conor Benn in April and he has only lost one fight in the last seven years. Eubank’s recent improvements under a more disciplined approach have sharpened his timing, footwork, and mid-range accuracy.
With a record of 35 wins and 3 losses, and stoppages in victories over Kamil Szeremeta and Liam Smith prior to their first meeting, Eubank remains physically strong and durable and of his 35 wins, 25 have come by knockout. His clean striking caused Benn real issues last time out and he will be eager to implement this once again.
Conor Benn returns with a point to prove after suffering his first career loss to Eubank in their April clash. The 29-year-old has not fought since then and prior to that he was on an impressive run of form, beating top notch opposition like Chris van Heerden and Peter Dobson, while claiming frequent knockout victories.
Holding a professional record of 23 wins and 1 loss of which 14 have come via knockout, Benn remains one of the most explosive offensive fighters in the division built around fast entries and heavy hitting hands, as well as relentless pressure. He is at his most dangerous in the opening rounds, where his speed and aggression often overwhelm opponents.

Eubank Jr. 1.59
Benn 2.35
PREDICTION:
I am expecting a faster start from Benn this time as he tries to shift the rhythm early, but Eubank’s composure and timing could swing the fight in his direction. I believe Eubank will once again control the tempo, picking up another decision win.
JACK CATTERALL vs EKOW ESSUMAN
WBO Global Welterweight Title Fight – (12 Rounds):
Jack Catterall enters this title showdown aiming to build on his technical decision over Harlem Eubank in July. With a professional ledger of 31 wins and 2 losses, the southpaw remains one of Britain’s most skilled operators, known for his sharp counters, tight guard, and clever footwork.
Over the past two years he has fought six times, picking up five wins with all of them ending in decision.
Ekow Essuman who is currently riding a three-fight winning streak including a unanimous decision over Josh Taylor in May, brings strength and intensity to the matchup. He stands at 22 wins and 1 loss and is renowned for his pressure heavy style and solid cardio.
He has fought eleven fights in a row for the belt or to defend his, making him experienced at a very high level.

Catterall 1.43
Essuman 2.75
PREDICTION:
I think a competitive and tactical encounter is on the cards early, but Catterall’s precision should allow him to edge rounds and secure a decision victory.
SAM GILLEY vs ISHMAEL DAVIS
British & Commonwealth Super Welterweight Titles – (12 Rounds):
Sam Gilley enters with solid momentum, carrying an 18-1-1 record built on consistency. He’s a slick technician who relies on his jab, timing and steady pressure, and has shown he can break opponents down with accurate body work and late round composure.
His most recent fight was held in June where he drew to Gideon Jonas, ending his winning run which began in 2021.
Ishmael Davis brings excitement to the ring with his record of 14-3, with notable victories against some talented fighters. Though he’s had recent a few setbacks across the last year, he remains in good athletic shape.
He tends to really get going as the fight progresses and he bounced back with a decision win over Elliot Eboigbe in October, his first win since March last year.
BETTING
Gilley 3.40
Davis 1.31
PREDICTION:
I think this will be a well contested fight, with both fighters landing in early exchanges, however I think Davis does enough to edge the scorecards and remain in the winning column.
