Conor Benn Called Out For Middleweight Fight By British Former World Champion: “Let’s Do It”

Former world middleweight champion Denzel Bentley called out Conor Benn for a 160-pound fight next year following his unanimous decision victory over Shane Mosley Jr at the Copper Box Arena. Speaking to Sky Sports Boxing from the ring, Bentley targeted Benn, who was seated ringside. Benn immediately accepted the challenge, stating he is ready to make the fight happen.

Benn is currently recovering from a September stoppage defeat against Ryan Garcia and has ruled out returning to the welterweight division due to weight-cut issues. The British fighter previously competed at middleweight against Chris Eubank Jr, splitting two bouts, and now faces potential options that include Bentley, a trilogy fight with Eubank, or a 2027 bout against Conor McGregor.
