Heavyweight icon Eubank Jnr. has left the hospital after his win over Conor Benn on Saturday.
Chris Eubank Jr was taken to the hospital as a safety measure after his match against Conor Benn on Saturday.
Eubank’s admission followed routine protocols for boxers after an intense fight, with promoter Ben Shalom mentioning he was undergoing “safety evaluations.”
The 35-year-old departed the hospital on Monday.
Eubank secured a unanimous decision victory against Benn in an exciting 12-round middleweight clash at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
On Monday, Eubank shared on social media, saying “it has nearly been three years, but we finally accomplished it.
“A huge thanks to everyone who backed the fight on Saturday and turned it into the extraordinary event it became. This wouldn’t have been possible without the fans; I appreciate you.”

All judges scored the match 116-112 in a contest characterized by fierce aggression from both competitors, though neither was able to deliver a decisive hit.
Chris Eubank Sr made an unexpected appearance at the venue with his son on Saturday.
The two had reportedly been distant for several years, and Eubank Sr had openly criticized the matchup.
Saturday’s fight was arranged with a middleweight cap of 11 stone 6 pounds (160 pounds), but Eubank came in 0.05 pounds over that on Friday.
In 1990, Eubank Sr defeated Nigel Benn, the father of Conor Benn, followed by a disputed draw three years afterward.
