This comes after Ryan Garcia called out Benn for a fight after the latter’s latest win over Regis Prograis.
Benn had also accepted the challenge.
And a few days ago, Garcia himself had confirmed that he would fight Conor Benn next in August in Las Vegas during a live stream.
Despite clear intentions from both sides, their promoters have yet to make an official announcement to finalize the bout.
Benn was originally signed with Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing, but left the promotion abruptly after his contract ended.
This made headlines, as Hearn and Benn started feuding over interviews.
Hearn and Benn had hinted that they could come back together, but with Benn’s new deal, that won’t happen in the next two-and-a-half years.
As for the Benn vs.
Garcia fight, the rivalry extends well beyond the fighters themselves.
Dana White, who is backing Benn, and Oscar De La Hoya, representing Garcia, have been at odds for years.
Their feud has only intensified since White entered the boxing world.
That adds another layer of intrigue, making it particularly interesting to see whether the two promoters can navigate their differences and reach an agreement for a potential showdown.
In any case,....
