'FANTASY FIGHT WILL STAND TEST OF TIME'

- MARTIN DOMIN

CONOR BENN admits he risks being remembered as a loser.

Benn, 29, will attempt to avenge his only career defeat on Saturday night when he renews his rivalry with Chris Eubank Jr.

He was outpointed in their first gruelling meeting in April, as the sons of famous fathers appeared to settle the 35-year family feud.

But both men had already agreed to an immediate money-spinning rematch and will lock horns again at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

So far the sons’ rivalry has followed the script of their fathers - Chris Eubank Sr defeated Nigel Benn in their first fight in 1990 before a controversial draw three years later.

That left two-weight world champion Benn without a win over his nemesis - and his underdog son is now facing the same fate.
