Conor Benn is eyeing up a clash with Manny Pacquiao as he plots his boxing comeback after a tumultuous end to 2022.
The Brit had his fight with Chris Eubank Jr cancelled at the last minute when he failed a drug test, and at the time of writing has no licence to box in the UK, where all but one of his previous fights have taken place. However, he continues to insist he has proven his innocence, and his promoter Eddie Hearn appears to be working on a comeback plan for him.
Hearn was speaking on the DAZN Boxing show when he opened up about Benn's return plan, with the fighter later posting a training video with a clock emoji indicating that his comeback will come soon. During his interview, Hearn names a number of potential fights for Benn, including 44-year-old Pacquiao who recently returned for an exhibition bout against YouTuber DK Yoo.
