Chris Eubank Jr

Christopher Livingstone Eubank Jr (born 18 September 1989) is a British professional boxer. He has held the International Boxing Organization (IBO) middleweight title since 2024. Previously, he held the World Boxing Association (WBA) interim middleweight title twice between 2015 and 2021. He also held the (IBO) super-middleweight title twice between 2017 and 2019. At regional level, he held the British middleweight title in 2016. He is the son of former two-division world champion boxer, Chris Eubank.

Eubank Jr's first meeting against Conor Benn was named Fight of the Year by The Ring magazine, Boxing Writers Association of America, ESPN, BoxingScene, and CBS Sports.

Eubank Jr was born in Hove, East Sussex, the son of boxer Chris Eubank and Karron Suzanne Stephen-Martin. He was a pupil at Brighton College, Shoreham College for one year, and Spring Valley High School in Las Vegas for two years. Eubank featured alongside his father in the reality TV series At Home with the Eubanks.

At the age of 16, Eubank Jr and his brother Sebastian (1991–2021) moved to the United States to live with a guardian named Irene Hutton. It was explained by their mother Karron, as a paper adoption, as a means of gaining the two brothers dual citizenship without the need to marry, and to enhance their prospects of sporting careers.

Eubank Jr started his amateur career in 2007. With the winning of his sixth amateur fight, he became the Amateur Golden Gloves Champion for the State of Nevada in his weight division of 165 lbs. With his eighth amateur fight he became the Amateur Golden Glove Champion for the Western States of the United States in his weight division. Eubank was 1–1 in the 2008 National Golden Gloves. He ended his amateur career with a record of 24–2.

Eubank Jr turned professional in 2011 and signed with promoter Mick Hennessy. He was mentored by his father, and trainer Ronnie Davies who also guided his father. Over the next three years, Eubank Jr amassed a record of 18–0 with 13 knockouts to his name.

On 19 February 2014, Eubank Jr signed a deal to appear on BoxNation, with his first fight being at the York Hall in London on 22 February. In his first fight on BoxNation Eubank Jr stopped Alistair Warren, after Warren retired on his stool before round four.

Eubank Jr next fought at the Copper Box Arena in London on 12 April against Sandor Micsko. Eubank landed a big uppercut in round two, which dropped Micsko. The referee waved the fight off. In the post-fight, Eubank said, "I'm the next generation. I worked on the uppercut in the gym and I connected beautifully tonight. When I connect with these guys I'm taking them out, no one can stand up to my power and I'll only get better and stronger. I'm ready for a title fight now."
