Conor Benn, visibly bruised and emotionally impacted by his loss to Chris Eubank Jr at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, declared his desire for revenge in the post-fight moments. Promoter Eddie Hearn acknowledged public demand for a rematch while suggesting that Benn should drop back to welterweight. The fight, characterized by courage over skill, drew critiques for its mismatch between the aging Eubank Jr and the less experienced Benn, who faced scrutiny due to past doping issues. However, Hearn praised Benn's heart and performance, while Benn himself admitted he fell short of expectations.
I want my revenge, man, Conor Benn said quietly in the early hours of Sunday morning as his bruised face reflected his emotional pain after he lost against Chris Eubank Jr.
Obviously we know what he's been through. But tonight Conor Benn has become the people's champion because this kid has always been a great kid that was an amazing performance.

This ain't good enough for me, he said with a sad shrug. I need to do better. It's a hard one to swallow.
