Stevenson did his part. Now let’s make the fight.
He and second-generation British welterweight Conor Benn have been linked to a bout in 2026 thanks to a back-and-forth messaging session in the fall, shortly after Benn avenged an earlier loss against fellow second-generation star Chris Eubank Jr.
Benn told Ring Magazine that he’d reached out to his would-be rival to confirm he was open to the idea and that it could be a reality by springtime.
“I said, ‘Listen, if you’re really about it, let’s do it next.’ I don’t just do the social media thing for bants,” Benn said. “I said we can do that next in April and he said, ‘Cool. Let me get Teo out the way, we’ll do it in April.'”
