Conor Benn officially arrived at Zuffa Boxing last Friday (20) and already has a commitment scheduled. The Englishman, former Matchroom Boxing star and signed for a hefty sum by Dana White's organization, will make his debut on April 11th in London (ENG), at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The popular boxer's opponent, who will be fighting at home, will be Regis Prograis. Interestingly, the grand boxing event promoted by The Ring will be broadcast live on Netflix and not on Paramount.
The fight announcement was made by Zuffa Boxing itself this Thursday (26). It is worth noting that, according to the journalist Dan Rafael, a boxing specialist, and the 'According to 'Sports Illustrated', Benn's agreement with Dana White's organization is valid for one fight, and his purse is in the range of 10 to 15 million dollars (approximately between R$ 52 and 77 million at the current exchange rate).

Interestingly, despite his status, Benn isn't the biggest name in the event. The main fight features the star... Tyson Fury, who decided to come out of retirement again to face Arslanbek Makhmudov. As expected, the Englishman is considered the favorite to beat Prograis, who is 37 years old and has 30 wins and three losses.
