According to Gareth A Davies... 2min30.

Big signing considering how much Sky put into marketing Eubank.
But more interestingly, if true, looks very likely Eubank/Benn happens.
Feels like a play from DAZN for marketing... Selling Benn out, but it'll get attention for sure.
On another note. Gareth also says the money AJ gets from DAZN will fall of he loses.
Nobody wants to pay for Andrade Janibek even though it's ordered for the 2nd time, not even DAZN (literally called Janibek a nobody). Andrade wants to fight Eubank. WTF is Eubank chasing Benn for? Andrade vs Eubank is a sellout O2 fight. Never get what we should get.
Trash fight if it happens. Looks like Benn was the bait to get Eubank to come over and maybe the winner of GGG and Canelo was offered like a real possibility.
Every top fighter loves the easy UK money.
Why? He's probably going to knock Connor out and be seen in every UK paper and news outlet for months. It's a great move - if he gets the Benn (or an alternative, e.g. GGG fight)
Just for 1 fight, it is not really worth it.
What is he going to do after the fight?
The fight better happen then, and at 160 pounds.
of course, nobody changes promotions more than this dude
True, this guy has no loyalty. Sky really pushed him as well, so this actually maybe last chance saloon for him. Probably not making friends.
Long term Eubank Junior was better off with Sky.
This is not a good move.

Eubank Jr sucks. Lol how bad is boxing in the UK right now if that's a good signing?
The boxrec crew don't understand the impact his dad had on UK culture. He transcended boxing and is a household name. Mums, dads, grandparents, kids all know dad. He's a celebrity now.
It's not actually about how good Jnr is, he just VERY well known.
If Gareth reports on it, it's likely it isn't happening. At least I hope.
He's not been 100% right, e.g. the Benn/Eubank fight clearly hadn't been signed, BUT it was clearly being spoke about.
In true Gareth A. Davies style, he overexaggerates the truth, but there's always some substance...
