British professional boxer Conor Benn spoke about mixed martial artists who think they can compete with top boxers in the ring.
"Whoever these f------ UFC fighters wanting to come over to boxing, it's a dangerous game. For any of these MMA lot who wanna come over to boxing, if you fancy something you can come and get it... Nasty," Benn said in a video showing his work on the heavy bag.
Benn also said he is ready to fight bare knuckle for ten million pounds.
Bare knuckle. . . I see a lot of people tagging me in that [Ilia Topuria], I got these hands, brother. . . . Listen I ain't stupid enough to get in the cage, you wouldn't catch me dead in the cage, I'd get my arse handed to me. But, for them thinking they can come over and do that to us, that's a f------ liberty.
Remember that on November 15 Benn will have a rematch with Chris Eubank Jr. The first fight between Eubank and Benn took place in April 2025, when Chris won by unanimous decision and defended the IBO middleweight title.
Eubank’s record stands at 35 wins (25 by knockout) and three losses. Benn’s record is 23 wins (14 by knockout) and one loss.
Topuria last fought Charles Oliveira in June 2025 at UFC 317. In that bout Ilia won by first-round knockout and claimed the UFC lightweight title.
