Conor Benn called out by former undisputed champion

Former undisputed boxing champion Josh Taylor has called out Conor Benn for a future stadium fight.

As we know, Conor Benn is seen as a divisive figure in the world of professional boxing. While he’s had some success in his career up to this point, his doping violation a few years back really did him some harm when it comes to his reputation. Despite that, he is set to battle it out with rival Chris Eubank Jr later this month in a blockbuster showdown.

For Conor Benn, this is an opportunity to prove that he belongs among the elite in this sport. A lot of folks have decided to write him off before the fight with Eubank Jr has even happened, whereas others are already considering what could be next for him beyond this contest.

Josh Taylor, who has been to the top of the mountain before, recently had the following to say about a potential collision with Conor Benn in the future.

“Yeah, absolutely. It’s a big fight; it’s a big name,” Taylor said during an exclusive interview with DAZN News.

“We’ll see obviously how he gets on against Eubank. If he wins, he might decide to stay up there and get big fights up there because there’s big names at middleweight as well.

“It’s a big fight. It’s a great fight.”

“I’d love to fight at Easter Road at Hibernian’s Stadium. I’d love to fight there and fill it out.

“A fight like Conor Benn or something like that would be amazing at Easter Road.”
