Peter Fury GOES OFF on Conor Benn: “Eubank Rematch Will Finish Him!”

The boxing world is on fire with controversy as renowned trainer Peter Fury unleashed a scathing attack on Conor Benn, warning that a rematch with Chris Eubank Jr. on September 27 could spell the end of Benn’s career! Fury’s brutal assessment—“Eubank rematch will finish him!”—has sent shockwaves through the sport, reigniting debates about Benn’s future after his first professional loss earlier this year.

Fury’s Harsh Warning

The explosive comments came during an interview with Sky Sports this morning, where Peter Fury, the mastermind behind Tyson Fury’s rise to heavyweight glory, didn’t hold back on his assessment of Benn’s trajectory. “Conor Benn is walking into a disaster,” Fury declared, his tone laced with conviction. “He’s got heart, I’ll give him that, but he’s not learned from the first fight. Eubank Jr. exposed his limits—size, stamina, everything. This rematch will finish him. Mark my words.”

Fury’s critique centers on Benn’s performance during his April 26 loss to Eubank Jr. at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, a grueling 12-round battle that ended in a unanimous decision for Eubank (116-112 on all cards). Despite the entertaining clash, where both fighters were hurt and exhausted, Fury believes Benn’s physical disadvantages—particularly against Eubank’s size and reach—will be even more pronounced in a rematch. “Conor’s too small for middleweight. He got battered in rounds 11 and 12 last time. Eubank knows how to break him now,” Fury added, echoing sentiments from Carl Froch, who also advised Benn against the rematch.

The Rematch Build-Up

Benn, who suffered his first professional defeat (23-1, 14 KOs) in the April showdown, has been vocal about wanting redemption, with promoter Eddie Hearn confirming September 27 as the targeted date for the rematch, again at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Benn insists he was the better fighter despite the scorecards, claiming he won by at least a point, and has spent the past month training relentlessly for a second shot at Eubank (35-3, 25 KOs). But Fury isn’t buying the bravado. “Conor’s delusional if he thinks he can change the outcome. He’s got a fire in him, sure, but it’s the kind of fire that burns you out,” Fury warned.

The first fight wasn’t without controversy—Eubank missed weight by 0.05 pounds, incurring a $500,000 fine, and faced health concerns after a brutal weight cut that landed both fighters in the hospital post-fight. Despite these challenges, Eubank emerged victorious, and Fury believes he’ll be even more dominant in the rematch. “Eubank’s got his number. Conor can’t handle the power or the pace over 12 rounds. He’ll get stopped this time,” Fury predicted.

Reactions Pour In

Fury’s comments have sparked a frenzy in the boxing community. On social media, fans are divided: “Peter Fury knows his stuff—Benn should listen and move back to welterweight!” one user posted, while another countered, “Benn’s got the heart to prove Fury wrong—rematch will be a war!” Liam Smith, who previously fought Eubank, also weighed in, agreeing with Fury’s assessment: “Conor’s got a chance, but Eubank’s size was too much last time. It’ll be worse now.”

Benn responded to Fury’s remarks with defiance, tweeting, “I don’t care what anyone says—I’m coming for Eubank. September 27, I’ll show the world who I am.” Eubank Jr., meanwhile, has remained confident, recently stating, “The demand for this fight is at an all-time high. If fans want it, who am I to say no?” The buildup to the rematch is heating up, with both fighters contractually obligated to face off again, promising another blockbuster event.

What’s at Stake?

For Benn, the rematch is a make-or-break moment. A second loss to Eubank could derail his career, as Fury suggests, potentially forcing him to return to welterweight or face an uphill battle to regain credibility. For Eubank, another victory would solidify his dominance in the family rivalry that began with their fathers, Chris Eubank Sr. and Nigel Benn, in the 1990s, and open doors to mega-fights, including a potential clash with Canelo Alvarez.

As September 27 approaches, Fury’s warning looms large. Will Benn defy the odds and rewrite his story, or will Eubank Jr. fulfill Fury’s prophecy and “finish” his rival once and for all?
