Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr's lifestyles compared from £4million beachfront villa to growing up in Majorcan mansion

The Sun25-04-2025
CHRIS EUBANK JR and Conor Benn might have differing personalties and fight styles - but they've walked very similar paths.
The born rivals renew their family at Tottenham's stadium - 35 year after their dads first fought.

It will be contested at the 160lb middleweight limit - three years after their initial bout was dramatically axed with just days to go.
Benn failed two drug tests after testing positive for clomiphene - a substance known to boost testosterone.
He vowed to fight his innocence and took his career to America for two wins up at the light-middleweight limit.
Benn's UK Anti-Doping case was later dropped - allowing him to box in Britain again as Eubank Jr waited in patience.
Both are stars in their own rights but growing up the sons of British boxing royalty afforded them quite the luxurious lifestyles.
And here, SunSport takes a look at the lives Saturday night's headliners lead.

Rich kids
Eubank and Benn's classic two-fight series were just one of many big-money bouts the pair of icons had over their careers.
So their children were raised rich.
Eubank Jr and his three siblings, sister Emily and brothers Sebastian and Joseph, lived in a mansion in Brighton worth £4million.
Benn meanwhile grew up in an eight-bedroom property in Majorca with a pool and even a jacuzzi in his room.
But he still had to earn his own money as a painter and decorator in Spain making just €20 a day.
The Benns later moved to Sydney - where Conor would first start boxing as an amateur - before he returned to the UK to turn professional.
Eubank's dad meanwhile filed for bankruptcy in 2009 - selling his mansion with the family instead relocating to a flat above a nursery.
At 16, Eubank Jr and his late brother Sebastian, who sadly passed away in 2021, moved to Las Vegas to further their training.
He returned to turn professional in 2011 - with Benn following five years later.
Both also enjoy luxury designer clothes - posing in similar Gucci jackets - and showing off their fancy watches.

Travelling in style
While Eubank Jr and Benn may not see eye to eye - one thing they do share in common is a love for fancy cars.
Eubank Jr's prized possession has long been his custom McLaren 720S - worth around £210,000.
Modified by German brand Mansory, it's the ultimate petrol head's car and better still he custom-plated it 'EU13ANK'.
Eubank Jr has also been known to drive a black £215,000 Lamborghini Huracan, reaching a top speed of over 200mph and 0-60mph in just 2.3 seconds.
Others previously on the driveway include a £116,000 BMWi8 £116,000, £178,000 red Ferrari 458, £164,000 Mercedes-Benz G63, £115,000 and Range Rover Urban SVR a £240,000 Bentley Mansory GT Race.

But, it's not clear whether Eubank Jr rented or bought the motors outright and how many he still keeps to this day.
Benn meanwhile has driven a Rolls-Royce Wraith worth £260,000 and a £125,000 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG wrapped in gold.
Also in 2022, Benn added a stunning £110,000 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S - copying his dad who bought a Porsche 911 in the 1990s.
It has a personalised licence plate - 'K013ENN' - and Benn calls it his "weekend car."
And both boxers are also known to jet set in style, often flying private when they go abroad.

Living in luxury
Both men grew up in mansions - and they're keeping it that way.
Eubank Jr has a stunning four-bed mansion in Hove - with a pool outside - that is currently on the market for just under £2m.
But his home away from home is in Dubai, where his nephew Raheem lives.
Eubank Jr has taken on a father role since the tragic passing of younger brother Seb - who welcomed Raheem into the world in 2021.
He bought a stunning five-bedroom Indigo Ocean Villa on Dubai 's Palm Jebel Ali Island worth £4m.

As well as five sizeable bedrooms and four bathrooms, the 7,882 square-foot home has multiple private balconies and a spacious roof terrace.
The bedrooms and bathrooms are spaced out over three floors, the top of which features a stunning terrace.
Benn meanwhile has a beautiful Essex home which he shares with his wife Victoria and their two children, son Eli and daughter Idony Susanna.
The couple are also believed to have an apartment in Spain.

Family affair
Benn is very close with his dad Nigel, who spent the whole training camp in Majorca besides his son.
The unbeaten welterweight also had a surprise visit from his wife and two children.
Partner Victoria has a following of her own as a social media influencer and author.
She wrote the book Feeling It All which helps kids cope with their emotions and also shares big brand deals on her Instagram page, where she has over 26,000 followers.

The pair began dating in 2017, before walking down the aisle a year later in a private ceremony.
They welcomed son Eli into the world in 2021 and daughter Idony Susanna in 2024.
Eubank Jr meanwhile keeps a more private life, not giving away whether he is in a relationship or not.
But he has opened the door to having children of his own after taking on the role of carer alongside nephew Raheem's mum.
Eubank Jr has also sadly fallen out with his dad over the past few years - leading to public back and forths between them.
Interestingly, Eubank Jr's sister Emily is in a long-term relationship with Frank Smith, who promotes Benn alongside Eddie Hearn.
And Eubank Jr has sadly been estranged from his dad for a number of years - and will not have him by his side on fight night.

Son Heung-min confirms bombshell Tottenham exit decision with emotional statement

Tottenham star Son Heung-min has confirmed that he will LEAVE the club this summer in an emotional press conference. The South Korean forward made the announcement during a press conference on Spurs' pre-season tour of his home country. He said: "Thank you for having us again here in Korea for the second year in a row. Everybody really appreciates it. It's just incredible. Yesterday at the airport we felt the welcome. Everybody loved this and can't wait to play tomorrow. "Before we start, I just want to share the information that I have decided to leave this club this summer. Respectfully, this club is helping me to make my decision. I just want to share this before we start." On what has led him to exiting the North London side, he added: "It was the most difficult decision I have made in my career. I have spent 10 years at Tottenham. The main reason is I have achieved everything I can at Tottenham. I need a new environment for a fresh challenge. I'm grateful the club have respected my decision and wish Spurs well for the next season." Son will now leave the club following a successful decade with Spurs. He was signed from German side Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 and has gone on to score 173 goals in over 450 appearances. The forward also led Spurs to the Europa League title last season. But he has claimed that an exit has been on his mind for some time having opened up on emotional talks with his teammates. "I spoke with only a few guys, ones I've spent a long time with," Son said. "Obviously they're disappointed, as a friendship or as a team-mate you'd be very disappointed if someone decided to leave, but in a respectful way. Obviously I'm very close with Ben [Davies] so we've spoken about the future a lot of times. "Obviously he fully respects my decision. So does everyone. What can I say? It's very, very hard to tell my team-mates because I sometimes probably spend more time with them than my family because we're travelling together, spending time together every single day at the training ground, five or six hours every day. Where do you think Son Heung-min should go? Share your thoughts in the comments below "I think we know each other so well. Everybody was disappointed but also in a way very happy for me. That was my feeling but I don't what they were actually feeling! They seemed happy but disappointed when I told them my decision." Son added: "It's been a while since I decided to leave the club. It was not easy days or weeks for me. I always try to be happy and I'm happiest when I'm playing football, but, it's not easy to leave the club where I spent 10 years light-hearted. "I tried to not give any negative impact on other players, didn't want to make any sort of noise, but it was inevitable, that people noticed my feelings. My fans even know my habits, so they could notice about it, but I'll try to have good time for the two days while I'm in here." Son, 33, has one year remaining on his contract and has been linked with a host of sides including MLS outfit LAFC. He remained quiet over where his future lied but confirmed that he would be keen to sign for a new club that would bolster his chances of appearing at next summer's World Cup. He concluded: "For now it's to focus on tomorrow's match. I would not give many comments on the next team. Obviously I would like to focus on tomorrow's match and the future and the next team will be decided afterwards. In choosing the next team, the World Cup will definitely be one of the key points that I will consider. It might be my last World Cup so I need my new environment to give all that I've got for my football career. As well as the World Cup, I will also need to find a team that will make me happy while playing football." Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.

Emma Raducanu crashes out in straight sets in Montreal

Raducanu had won both of their previous meetings, but rarely looked like extending that run as she held her serve just once in either set. Wimbledon finalist Anisimova came from 40-15 down to break Raducanu's serve in the second game of the match and, although the British number one broke back immediately, she was unable to fashion another break point in the contest. Amanda Anisimova hits a return to Emma Raducanu (Christinne Muschi/The Canadian Press/AP) Anisimova broke again to make it 3-1 and added a third break to wrap up the set. Her dominance continued in the second set as Raducanu won just eight points on her own serve, avoiding the whitewash after losing the first five games before Anisimova served out for a place in the fourth round. She will face 10th seed Elina Svitolina or Anna Kalinskaya in the last 16. Wimbledon champion Iga Swiatek needed little more than an hour to complete a 6-2 6-2 victory over Germany's Eva Lys, but Jessica Pegula's bid for a third straight Montreal title was ended by world number 386 Anastasija Sevastova. The Latvian, a former world number 11 who has had lengthy spells out on maternity leave and with a torn ACL, beat the third seed 3-6 6-4 6-1.
