The Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn grudge match more than delivered after years of a bubbling rivalry simmering under the surface.

With the pair having been at loggerheads with each other for years, it was Eubank Jr who prevailed on the night via unanimous decision.

After settling a bitter feud in a middleweight (160-pounds) contest at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, bragging rights are safe and sound with the Eubank family.

It’s been 32 years since a Eubank last fought a Benn. Their respective father’s, Chris and Nigel, fought twice before in 1990 and 1993 respectively, and the boxing fraternity bore witness to another showing of this great British rivalry.

With this fight making an indelible mark on the fabric of British boxing, it comes as no surprise to learn that both Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn are both in for bumper paydays. ‘Next Gen’ is the A-side here, meaning he will receive a bigger individual purse than ‘The Destroyer’.

Individual figures are yet to be officially disclosed by the fighters, promoters or His Excellency Turki Alalshikh, but Gareth A Davies of talkSPORT has reported that the total Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn prize money on offer is £18 million.

As the A-side, Eubank Jr will receive a slightly bigger share of the total prize money on offer for the bout.

Both men are expected to receive an individual fight purse. Although official purses are yet to be disclosed, it has been reported from various sources that the purse split is 60-40 in Chris Eubank Jr’s favour.

However, ‘Next Gen’ himself denied these claims, stating that His Excellency Turki Alalshikh saved the day with his fight purse and that there are in fact no purse or percentage splits at all for their British grudge match.

As the A-side, Eubank Jr is set to earn a more lucrative purse than Benn. It has been reported by talkSPORT that Eubank Jr will pocket at least £10m for the fight. Conor Benn meanwhile is set to earn a career-high purse of £8m himself.

This means that Eubank Jr is earning £2m+ more than his British counterpart after winning the contest. This comes as no surprise giving that he is the more established fighter, has fought at world level for years, is the A-side here and isn’t the one that previously failed a performance enhancing drugs test.

This is both Eubank Jr and Benn’s biggest career purses by quite some distance. To date, Eubank’s biggest purse was around £2.4m against Liam Smith back in 2023. For ‘The Destroyer’, this will blow away all of his previous purses by quite some margin.

Both men are already extremely rich too, with Chris Eubank Jr’s net worth £5m. Meanwhile, Conor Benn has an estimated net worth of £4m himself.

Although figures haven’t been disclosed, it is likely Eubank Jr could also be in line for additional bonuses after being crowned the victor.
