Conor Benn has ruled out the possibility of facing Harlem Eubank despite being called out by him.
Benn, has long been linked with a fight with Harlem’s cousin, Chris Eubank Jr. but once again the scrap has failed to materialise despite talks between the camps.
And when asked by ProBox TV about a possible meeting with Harlem Eubank, Benn explained exactly why he has no interest in that fight.

“I like him [Harlem Eubank], I think he’s a cool guy, he’s got cool swagger, different stages, said Benn.
“I mean, where I’m at, talking me in with the big names, he just ain’t got that X-factor. He’s an okay fighter, but he’s not on my radar at all. You can’t then just jump on the bandwagon of [Chris] Eubank-Benn because your name is Eubank, but no one knows who you are.
He continued: “Imagine having the name of Eubank and no one in boxing really knows who you are, so you’re obviously doing something wrong. You’re a good boxer, fair enough, but you’re just not on my radar. I’m so close to closing in on a world title – that’s where I’m at… it’s either Chris Eubank Jr. or no one for me.”
