The supporting bouts for ‘The Ring: Unresolved Issues’ featuring Chris Eubank Jr against Conor Benn 2, scheduled for November 15th at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, located in Tottenham, London, England, have been revealed today.
Azim, Riakporhe: Local Favourites Integrated into Schedule
Highlighted by the presence of Jack Catterall, Richard Riakporhe, and Adam Azim, these additions are set to draw significant attention from UK-based fight enthusiasts. DAZN PPV will provide live broadcast coverage of the event.
As the main undercard attraction, welterweight Jack Catterall (sporting a record of 31-2, with 13 KOs) will compete against opponents holding rankings of #3 by WBO, #9 by WBA, and #16 by IBF. This match serves as a crucial opportunity for Catterall, aged 32, to elevate his standing within the 147-lb division, potentially paving the way for a world title challenge following his second venture in this weight category.
His performance at welterweight was perceived as less than stellar during his debut on July 5 against Harlem Eubank, where he secured a seven-round technical unanimous decision.

Social Platforms Criticize Subpar Fight Roster
Online reactions from the fanbase regarding the announced fight lineup have generally been unfavourable, with minimal positive feedback concerning the selected matches.
The degree of Turki Alalshikh’s involvement in the bout selection process remains ambiguous, with speculation whether the choices were exclusively the promoters’ decision. The addition of merely two compelling fights could have significantly mitigated fan dissatisfaction regarding the event’s DAZN PPV availability.
Substantial Financial Rewards Lead to Weakened Undercard
Evidently, there’s an expectation that the rematch between Eubank Jr. and Benn 2 will generate enough fan enthusiasm to overlook the perceived shortcomings of the undercard. Some observers suggest that the considerable financial compensation received by the main fighters explains the lack of high-profile bouts on the undercard, attributing it to resource allocation favoring the top earners.
Thrilled to feature prominently on such an important card. Gratitude to @Turki_alalshikh @RiyadhSeason @ringmagazine @EddieHearn @MatchroomBoxing @mrsamjones88 for enabling this opportunity. pic.twitter.com/O2WOZhvaU1
