Chris Eubank Jr Hospitalized After Gritty Victory Over Conor Benn

British boxer Chris Eubank Jr is set to remain in hospital until Monday following his bruising but triumphant battle against Conor Benn on Saturday night at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Eubank Jr, 35, was rushed to The Royal London Hospital for precautionary checks after sustaining a nasty cut above his right eye during the fight. While initial scans returned clear, his promoter confirmed that doctors have recommended he stay under observation to ensure full recovery.

“On recommendation of the onsite doctor, Chris Eubank Jr has been taken to hospital by ambulance for precautionary checks,” the promoter shared on X (formerly Twitter).

The bout, which was every bit as fiery as the historic rivalry between their fathers, saw Eubank Jr earn a hard-fought victory — with all three judges scoring in his favour before a roaring crowd of 67,000 fans.

Despite the win, the physical toll was clear. Conor Benn even speculated post-fight that Eubank Jr might have suffered a broken jaw — though no confirmation has been given on that front.

Eubank’s legendary father, Chris Eubank Sr, alongside other close family members, has been at his bedside throughout the recovery process.
