Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn is creating a frenzy online
Social media is all in a spin over rumours of Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn.
The British boxers are reportedly set to fight at an agreed catchweight on October 8 at the O2 Arena, live on DAZN PPV.
There has been no official confirmation but there's a buzz around the boxing world as if it was a foregone conclusion and the announcement will just be a formality.
Journalist Gareth A. Davies is the source, claiming that the fight between Benn and Eubank 'Is sealed'.
He told TalkSport, "From what we're hearing from our sources throughout the course of the week and despite promoters trying to put you off the scent of various things, this fight is quite a long way down the line of happening and will hopefully happen in the autumn of this year.
"I understand he's [Eubank] going to come down to 155lbs, that's what I'm hearing."
The match-up will reignite the famous Benn-Eubank rivalry that dates back to 1990.
