Two legendary boxing names will go glove-to-glove this evening when Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn step into the ring at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
These two need little introduction, with their fathers - Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn - having their own history from their infamous bouts in the 1990s.
Their sons now have picked up their mantels and will face each other tonight, having first been scheduled for fight back in 2022.
That bout was controversially called off after Benn tested positive for a banned substance. He was later cleared after a provisional two-year suspension and this evening sees the long-awaited event take place.
What time does Eubank Jr vs Benn start?
The bout between Eubank Jr and Benn is topping the bill called Fatal Fury, which takes places at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
It starts at 5pm, with the undercard kicking off around 15 minutes later.
It is always tricky to give exact start times in boxing but Eubank Jr and Benn is pencilled in for a 10pm start - this will be dependent on how long the fights on the undercard go on for.

Insults and gestures exchanged between Richardson Hitchins and George Kambosos Jr in face-off ahead of bout
Richardson Hitchins and George Kambosos Jr proved they are hardly the best of friends ahead of their IBF super lightweight clash, exchanging insults at the Empire State Building. The pair met at the iconic New York Venue to face-off for the first time during fight week, with Hitchins defending his title against challenger Kambosos Jr on Saturday, June 14, live on DAZN. It will be Hitchins' first defence after winning the belt off Liam Paro in December 2024, taking a split decision win away from home in Puerto Rico. Kambosos Jr said that he aims to spoil Hitchins' Big Apple homecoming, pointing out his two previous wins at the Garden. The Australian defeated American Mickey Bey in 2019 before shocking Teofimo Lopez to claim the WBA, IBF, and WBO lightweight titles in 2021. Highlights of the pair's lowbrow conversation included Hitchins trying to set a wager with Kambosos, initially betting $50,000 that he was going to win at Madison Square Garden before raising the stakes to $100,000. Kambosos' mind games centred on claiming that Hitchins lacked oral hygiene, telling his opponent on multiple occasions that 'your breath stinks'. Hitchins claimed: 'You know I ain't going nowhere. Run from you? You ain't got nothing for me. I promise I'm gonna stop you. Right in your face all night. Easy work, easy f*cking work. 'I've been here a billion times, (I'm) world champ for a reason. This sh*t ain't going nowhere, it's saying in New York. He don't believe in himself. I bet you I stop you, you bum. F*ck you. He's getting knocked the f*ck out.'

Kambosos Jr's response had slightly fewer swears, stating: 'I know where you're going – run, run, run, run, run. Your breath stinks bro, you stink. That talk's easy, brother. I'm smarter than you.' After first meeting in the bowels of the Empire State, the duo renewed their war of words on the rooftop shortly after. This time Kambosos Jr started the insults, beginning: "Look at ya, you skinny-looking thing. You look scared. I can't talk with this guy; this guy's breath stinks." Hitchins was undeterred, replying: "I promise you, you will not be saying what you're saying after the fight. I promise you, bro. I'm not Lomachenko." The reigning champion then pressed Kambosos Jr about their wager, saying his opponent had shaken on it. He restarted: "Bet that $50,000 then. How (do) you shake on it and then take it back?" Kambosos Jr stated that he instead planned to stake the same amount with the bookies, who have priced the contender at 7/1. "I spoke to my financial advisor - why the f*ck would I bet $50,000 on you, one-on-one, when I could put my $50,000 on $7 odds? "That's $350,000 bro." When Hitchins pointed out that they had already shaken hands, Kambosos made a vulgar gesture with his nether regions, telling his opponent to 'shake on that'.

Marcus Rashford hits back at fan who took swipe at him after posting training clip - with the Man United star facing an uncertain future
Marcus Rashford has hit back at an online critic, who took a swipe at him after the Man United forward shared training footage. Rashford, 27, posted a short clip on his Instagram doing cardio work, running and jumping on the pitch as he prepares to hit the ground running in pre-season. He accompanied the clip with the words: 'Feeling better again', alongside a grinning emoji. But one naysayer responded to the reposted clip on X, writing: 'Every pre-season he does these photo shoots but then goes to see boxing matches half way round the world days before important matches! 'Makes no sense if you are feeling good one month before the season starts.' It is unclear which boxing match halfway around the world the poster was referring to but Rashford did attend Conor Benn 's fight with Chris Eubank Jr on UK soil the day Aston Villa lost their FA Cup semi-final against Crystal Palace - a game he was injured for. Rashford saw the comment and replied: 'I'm feeling good because I'm now injury free pal.' It remains to be seen whether Rashford has a future at Man United having been loaned out by Ruben Amorim last January. He found form and confidence again at Aston Villa under Unai Emery and is valued at around £40million. His agent met with Barcelona director Deco in Spain at the end of the season and United want to move the 27-year-old's £315,000-a-week salary off their wage bill. Villa could return for another loan as a transfer may be too steep for PSR parameters but Rashford's preference is understood to be Barcelona if they can stump up the fee. With United already having bolstered their attack with Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo expected to follow, it seems even more unlikely Rashford will be at Old Trafford next term. Earlier this month, Rashford was spotted enjoying some downtime in St Tropez with a 22-year-old influencer known mononymously as Wiktoria.

Sports channel disappears from millions of Virgin Media TV boxes – but there's another way to keep watching for FREE
Samsung TVs are also affected by the move TUNE OUT Sports channel disappears from millions of Virgin Media TV boxes – but there's another way to keep watching for FREE A MUCH-LOVED sports channel has disappeared from Virgin Media boxes this week - but there's a way to continue enjoying the matches for free. Channel operator DAZN has made changes that affect all viewers, whether they're on Virgin Media or watching via other platforms. Advertisement 2 The channel showed tournaments including the UEFA Women's Champions League Credit: Getty Over a year ago, a DAZN Women's Football was added to Virgin Media TV at no extra cost. The move provided viewers with access to the UEFA Women's Champions League, Liga F, Saudi Women's Premier League and more via a dedicated linear channel. On Virgin Media, the channel sat at number 554 and was streamed. It was available on other platforms too like Samsung TV Plus, by tapping 4637 on your remote. Advertisement Read more about Virgin Media GOLDEN APPLE Virgin Media is giving away FREE Apple gadget worth £439 But now DAZN Women's Football appears to have shut - at least as a linear channel. The sports streaming giant has confirmed to The Sun that the channel has indeed parted ways. But the same women's football content will remain accessible - and free. "At the time of launching the channel of Virgin Media, DAZN's free account model was not yet live," a DAZN spokesperson said. Advertisement "To maximise access to our women's football offering, we partnered with distributors who could increase the visibility of the content. "Since the launch of our free platform last year, all our women's football content has been free to watch and this barrier to entry no longer exists meaning all audiences can watch the content natively on DAZN for free." Virgin Media Launches Two Free Rakuten TV Channels The DAZN app is also available on Virgin Media boxes, meaning customers need not miss out. Those not with Virgin Media can find the app on smart TVs too. Advertisement RECENT CHANNEL CHANGES TV services are constantly evolving with new channels launching and others closing. The most recent high profile closure was that of ITVBe, which ended after more than 10 years of broadcasting. Most of the big reality series on the channel, like TOWIE, have moved over to ITV2. Fortunately, ITV hasn't left a huge gap on your TV guides as a result of the move. Instead, ITVBe's slot has been replaced by a new channel, ITV Quiz, filled with some of the network's biggest game shows. Image credit: ITV
