Conor Benn expects his fight with Chris Eubank Jr to take place despite claiming his rival will not be cornered by his father.
Benn will settle his bitter rivalry with Eubank Jr on October 8 at London's O2 arena in front of a sold-out crowd. The pair will settle the score in a feud which has originated from their fathers, who first touched gloves over 30 years ago in what went on to be two of the most high-profile domestic fights in the sport's history.
Earlier this week, the fight looked to be in jeopardy when Eubank Jr's father revealed his plan to withdraw his son from the event over health concerns regarding their agreed catchweight. However Benn believes the words have been blown out of proportion and expects his opinion to have no bearing on the fight going ahead.
