Tensions have been brewing between the two since a chilly interaction before Billam-Smith's fight with Lawrence Okolie in Bournemouth in 2023, but they will get the chance to iron out their issues as part of this eventful undercard.
From the Quotes Corner:.
Chris Eubank Jr shared his intense feelings about the upcoming match: "Everything is riding on this. A loss... it would finish me, it would ruin me mentally, emotionally, spiritually. A defeat would be devastating because not only the beef between me and Conor real, and something I wouldn't be able to stand the defeat of on a personal level. I have to uphold my father's legacy. Letting him down would probably hurt even more."
Conor Benn was equally candid, making clear the high stakes for his opponent: "When he losses, he has to retire. I don't understand why at this stage of his career why he chooses to fight a welterweight over a world title. I can drop back down and go and get my world title, no problem. I'll go fight for the WBC title, the WBA, WBO, I think I'm top ranked, top five in almost every governing body. But for him, he's chasing one thing and that's the difference between me and him."
