Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn collide on October 8 in a hugely anticipated fight at London's O2 Arena.
Nearly 30 years on from the second contest between Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn, their sons will meet in a family grudge match quite unlike anything else in boxing history.
A sell-out crowd is expected to watch 33-year-old Eubank Jr, nominally a middleweight, take on a man seven years his junior who is coming up from welterweight.
A catchweight of 157lbs has been agreed for the fight, with each man standing to be fined a sizeable amount of their prize purse should they fail to hit that mark.

However, for every pound they are over the catchweight, they are set to be fined around $80,000. Eubank Jr. has said he has "too much respect for money" to risk "throwing away" such a sum.
