CONOR BENN's family grudge match with Chris Eubank Jr will take place in January, promoter Eddie Hearn has claimed.<\/p>\n

The surging welterweight was set to face the former IBO super-middleweight champion last October before a pair of failed pre-fight drug tests scuppered the latest instalment of the family feud<\/span>.<\/p>\n


\n
\n<\/p>\n

Despite returning to the ring in September for a short-notice showdown with Rodolfo Orozco, Benn – the son of British boxing great Nigel – is currently NOT<\/strong> licensed to compete in the UK.<\/p>\n

The British Boxing Board of Control and UKAD both appealed the National Anti-Doping Panel's ruling that Benn was innocent of intentionally taking the banned fertility<\/span> drug found in his system.<\/p>\n

But Hearn is confident the BBBofC and UKAD won't slap his man with a suspension, so much so he's claimed January joust with Eubank Jr will come to fruition.<\/p>\n

The Matchroom Boxing chief told iFL TV: "In terms of Benn-Eubank, that fight is going to happen in January in the UK."<\/p>\n

Hearn, however, admits the fate of the fight is currently in the hands of the BBBofC, saying: "We will make the fight.<\/p>\n

"Conor Benn<\/span> is not suspended and we will apply to the British Boxing Board of Control for sanctioning.<\/p>\n

"It's up to them whether they sanction it or not.<\/p>\n

"He's not suspended, legally, and we don't see how he can't be sanctioned to fight. <\/p>\n

"We'll let them make their decision."<\/p>\n

Negotiations over the mouthwatering domestic dust-up – which could take place at the Principality Stadium or the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium – have reached the business<\/span> end.<\/p>\n

And Hearn expects an agreement to be reached as early as next<\/span> week.<\/p>\n

He said: "We're in final negotiations with both sides to finalise a deal.<\/p>\n

"If we don't get it done, we're morons. But sometimes, we're morons.<\/p>\n

"I expect everybody to be sensible and get that deal over the line as quick[ly] as next week. And we've got to get it done.<\/p>\n

"I know people will say, 'Oh, you've been saying this for a while.'<\/p>\n

"Yes, we were waiting for December 23. [But. January, UK, Benn-Eubank, I believe is happening."<\/p>\n
