Conor Benn
Conor Nigel Benn (born 28 September 1996) is a British professional boxer and the son of former two-division world champion Nigel Benn. Despite growing up in a gated mansion in Mallorca, his father instilled financial self-reliance, forcing him to work as a painter and decorator for €20 a day. He turned professional in April 2016 under trainer Tony Sims, quickly amassing an unbeaten record with a string of knockouts, including his American debut in November 2017. His most celebrated achievement came in his fight against Chris Eubank Jr, which was named Fight of the Year by The Ring magazine, the Boxing Writers Association of America, ESPN, and other outlets. Known for his aggressive power, Benn's early career featured rapid stoppages, such as a first-round knockout of Nathan Clarke in October 2017.
