BoxingNews24 4 hours ago By Boxing News – 12/12/2024 – Comments Conor Benn’s manager, Keith Connolly, will be negotiating with Eddie Hearn to setup a fight with WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios next, and then head towards a pay-per-view clash against Gervonta Davis in the States. Connolly feels there’s more money in a fight against Tank Davis. Benn’s promoter, Hearn, has been pushing for a clash against middleweight Chris Eubank Jr., believing that fight would bring in more revenue than a match against WBC 147-lb champion Barrios. However, he’s not seeing the pick big picture of the money Benn can make if he can capture the WBC belt. “The Conor Benn, Chris Eubank fight doesn’t look like it’ll happen next. My plan is to talk to Eddie Hearn this week to proceed with negotiations for Conor to fight Mario Barrios next, then target a huge PPV event in America against Gervonta Davis. There’s actually more money in the Gervonta Davis fight for Conor anyway,” said Connolly to Mike Coppinger on X. A fight between Benn and Tank Davis (30-0, 28 KOs) would be huge in 2025 and attract interest worldwide. If Benn chooses Eubank Jr, that would only interest fans in the UK market, leaving out the rest of the world, who don’t rate Chris.
