A much-anticipated rematch heads the card at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Saturday evening, as Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn clash once again in a 12-rounder at middleweight.
DAZN televise Eubank Jr vs Benn live on pay-per-view worldwide.
There is obvious family history between the two, with Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn doing battle twice over 30 years ago.
Their sons eventually faced each other in April, and in a thriller, it was Eubank that again denied the Benn family, with junior taking a hard-fought points win at the same stadium that they will oppose each other this weekend.
After taking a rematch win against Liam Smith via 10th round stoppage in September 2023, Eubank Jr (35-3, 25 KOs) then took a year off, and returned to stop Kamil Szeremeta in seven in Riyadh before seeing off Benn (23-1, 14 KOs) in Tottenham.
‘The Destroyer’ saw his career hit the buffers after a drug scandal that he has since been cleared of any wrongdoing for, and he fought only twice from April 2022, both in the USA, the last a wide points win against Peter Dobson last February in Las Vegas.
Prediction: This could be another drama-filled contest, but with Eubank naturally the bigger man, I favour him to take another points win.
Catterall clashes with Essuman
The undercard sees a decent crossroads clash at welterweight, where Jack Catterall faces Ekow Essuman.
Since losing his British and Commonwealth titles to Harry Scarff in November 2023, Essuman (22-1, 8 KOs) has been in fine form, and after two comeback wins, he stunned Josh Taylor, taking a deserved points win and the WBO Global welterweight title in Glasgow in May.
Catterall (31-2, 13 KOs) gained his revenge last May on Taylor after a controversial loss in their first meeting and after beating Regis Prograis, he was on the cusp of a world title shot, only for Arnold Barboza Jr to defeat the Chorley man via split decision.
The 32-year-old was last out in July, where he took a drab technical decision win against Harlem Eubank in Manchester and he has since switched to trainer Bozy Ennis.
Prediction: This could well be a tough watch, with both slippery customers. I think Essuman has good recent momentum, and can win on the cards here.
Azim faces Scoby
Adam Azim (13-0, 10 KOs) will look to stay on course for a future world title shot, and should deal with late-notice replacement Kurt Scoby inside the 10-round distance in their super lightweight clash for the WBO Intercontinental title.
Scoby (18-1, 16 KOs) steps in for Zaur Abdullaev last week, who had issues with his visa.
Remaining Undercard
At super welterweight, Sam Gilley (18-1-1, 9 KOs) should bounce back from his shock eight-round draw against Gideon Onyenani in his last contest, and can outscore Ishmael Davis (14-3, 6 KOs), who dropped Caoimhin Agyarko in their September meeting before losing a close split decision.
Richard Riakporhe (18-1, 14 KOs) continues his heavyweight journey, and the former cruiserweight world title challenger should halt Tommy Welch (16-0, 9 KOs), who steps up to 10-round level for the first time.

Joe Gallagher-trained flyweight hope, Mikie Tallon (10-0, 1 KO) takes part in a six-rounder, where he should be a points winner against Fezan Shahid (4-2-2).
