Eubank v Benn to be broadcast on BBC Radio 5 Live

Chris Eubank Jr's grudge match with Conor Benn at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Sounds.

The bout takes place more than 30 years after their fathers' famous rivalry and two and a half years after it was originally meant to take place.

Benn's failed drug tests in 2022 derailed the bout, but after having his suspension successfully lifted, the Englishman returns to fight in the UK for the first time in three years.

Live text and radio commentary will begin from 19:00 BST on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra, BBC Sounds and the BBC Sport website and app before switching to BBC Radio 5 Live at 21:30.

Eubank, 34, was fined £375,500 ($500,000) on Friday after missing the weight by 0.05lb.

He is the favourite but will have a weight disadvantage cutting down to 11st 6lb, while Benn will be coming up two divisions.

There is also a rehydration clause which prohibits either man from putting on more than 10lb before fight night.

Benn, 28, is unbeaten in 23 fights while Eubank has three losses and 34 victories on his record.

Saturday's commentary will begin with Liam Smith's middleweight bout against Aaron McKenna.

Light-heavyweight Anthony Yarde's trilogy fight with Lyndon Arthur serves as the co-main event.

The 5 Live ringside team will include Darren Fletcher presenting, and Ronald McIntosh on commentary alongside Steve Bunce and Richie Woodhall.
