Conor Benn: Eddie Hearn wouldn’t pay for my dad’s business class flights
Conor Benn insists he still has love for Eddie Hearn despite parting ways with the English promoter.
The 29-year-old says a $15 million one-fight deal from Dana White was too good to refuse.
The son of boxing legend Nigel Benn got here to a realization about his relationship with Hearn when a request for a business-class flight was denied.
“I’ve got love for Matchroom. I’ve got love for Eddie,” Benn told talkSPORT Boxing.
“Irrelevant of what they’ve been saying, I still want Eddie in my corner. I don’t hold any variety of feelings towards them
“After they don’t need to cover my dad’s business-class flights, you’re reminded that you will have a time span. Once you’re done, no one cares.
“There’ll be a brand new certainly one of me. Make hay while the sun is shining.
“Take one of the best deal for me that I feel is correct for me and my family.
It was one of the best deal by a rustic mile, so I’m excited to be fighting under the Zuffa Boxing banner.”
When is Conor Benn’s next fight?
Conor Benn hasn’t fought since avenging the lone lack of his 24-1 profession in November 2025.
Chris Eubank Jr. was dropped twice en path to a choice defeat to his bitter rival, whom he beat in a 12-round war seven months earlier.
Next up, Benn will co-headline Tyson Fury’s comeback card in London, England, on April 11.
Two-time super lightweight world champion Regis Prograis might be Benn’s opponent on the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
