LONDON — The all-British boxing grudge match between Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr. is back on. They will fight in London in April according to promoters Eddie Hearn and Turki Alalshikh. It will come more than 30 years after the boxers' fathers, Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank, met twice in the ring in one of Britain's great rivalries. Benn and Eubank Jr. were scheduled to fight at London's O2 Arena in October 2022 in a catchweight bout but it was called off after Benn failed a voluntary doping test. Benn battled for two years to clear his name and his suspension was lifted in November last year.
