Conor Benn is on the verge of a big opportunity in 2022 and looks to inch closer to that as he meets Chris van Heerden on Saturday from the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England. The fight and the card can be seen exclusively and live worldwide on DAZN (except Australia and New Zealand).
Benn fought three times in 2021. In each contest, he took a step up in opposition, defeating Samuel Vargas and Adrien Granados, respectively. The 25-year-old rising star closed out the 2021 campaign in December with a fourth-round knockout over former world champion Chris Algieri.
Van Heerden's last fight came against Jaron Ennis in December 2020, as it went to a no-decision because van Heerden suffered a gruesome cut from an accidental head clash in the first round, which caused the fight to be stopped.
