Ben Shalom Reacts To Conor Benn Beating Eubank Jr

Promoter of Chris Eubank Jr, Ben Shalom, was buzzing after the win over Conor Benn and spoke on the victory and what it meant here in the UK.

Benn won a unanimous points victory over the weekend against Conor Benn in a close but very brilliant fight, a bout that sparked big reaction.

Speaking after the bout, Shalom told Ring Magazine:

“Unbelievable. Look, I have to say, I expected it. A lot of people were picking Conor Benn, but I thought it would be an easier fight for Eubank Jr. It turned into an absolute war, a classic. I think after six or seven rounds, Chris really realized he was in a serious fight, and it became all about grit and determination. It was swinging from the rooftops, literally. But I’m over the moon, absolutely over the moon, to see Chris get his hand raised. It’s been a tough camp, a difficult time. I think everyone’s seen the pictures, the stories, and what he’s had to go through. Fair play to Conor Benn because he was phenomenal tonight as well.”

There has been talks that a rematch may in fact now happen.

Let’s see on that though.

Certainly, most boxing fans will watch the rematch if it happens.

The rematch will be bigger than ever after that tremendous scrapping on Saturday night, that has had all of boxing talking about the fight.
