MANCHESTER, England (AP) — The fight between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn has officially been postponed. The decision comes after the British Boxing Board of Control had already withdrawn sanctioning of the bout because Benn failed a doping test. While promoters still hoped to stage the contest they have now admitted defeat. They explained it is in the best interests of the fighters to postpone. Matchroom Boxing says it an investigation needed to start.
