Conor Benn has suggested that a new fight announcement could be coming soon, just days before Ryan Garcia faces Mario Barrios for the WBC welterweight title.
The 29-year-old has been out of action since his dominant rematch win over Chris Eubank Jr last November and was later named mandatory challenger after returning to welterweight.
Fans expected Benn to wait for the outcome of Garcia vs Barrios, but he recently teased “fight news” on Instagram, sparking speculation about his next move.
One possible opponent is WBA champion Rolly Romero, who has also hinted at an upcoming bout. The pair recently clashed at Madison Square Garden, where tensions flared before security intervened.
Benn has since admitted he is keen on making the fight and said he is ready to move forward if other options fall through.
