Top Rank president Todd DuBoef has made it possible for Chris Eubank Jr. to challenge middleweight IBF and WBO champion Janibek Alimkhanuly. This comes after Eubank Jr.’s promoter Kalle Sauerland revealed last week that the Eubank Jr. has no forthcoming fight after talks for a possible rematch with Conor Benn in February had collapsed.
“I can confirm that the negotiations around a potential Eubank-Benn clash for early next year have finished. The parties were not able to reach a commercial understanding and the negotiations have now ceased and the fight is dead in the water at this minute,” said Kalle Sauerland in media reports.
