  3. Other Eubank newspublished at 21:42 British Summer Time 5 July

    Harlem Eubank is of course the cousin of Chris Eubank Jr and we have some other Eubank news for you.

    Eubank Jr will fight Conor Benn again in a rematch on 20 September in London and BBC Sport's Kal Sajad has been tracking down the details.

    Will it be the same weight? Will the much-debated rehydration clause remain in place?

    Well, according to Eddie Hearn the terms will be the same and Team Benn had not been approached about any potential changes.

    Asked if different terms would be considered, Hearn said Benn would not want to go above the 160lb middleweight limit.

    After winning gold at the British Karate Championships, a 10-year-old Harlem Eubank went with his mother to a shop, where they bumped into his famous uncle.

    "Harlem's just won a British title," his mum, beaming with pride, told Chris Eubank Sr.

    She expected a hug or at least a smile... but the former world champion didn't miss a beat.

    "I have 19 world title defences," he replied flatly, before carrying on with his day.

    "That was it, he was gone," Harlem says now, laughing. "My mum was probably fuming but even at that age, I understood what he was trying to say. He was planting the seed that it's never enough, there's always more to do. Aim higher."

    It was vintage Eubank Sr - dismissive yet full of purpose.

    It's a lesson Harlem still carries with him today as he prepares for the biggest fight of his professional career.

    Harlem Eubank is unbeaten in 21 fights with nine knockouts, but Jack Catterall will be by far the best fighter he has faced.

    Eubank has impressive wins over Belfast boxer Tyrone McKenna and French star Nurali Erdogan.

    He is not the biggest puncher with nine knockouts but three in his last four represents the best stoppage run of Eubank's career to date.

    Jack Catterall's great run of form came to a grinding halt against Arnold Barboza Jr in February.

    It was the Chorley man's first loss since his controversial defeat to Josh Taylor in 2022.
