Conor Benn ended up getting revenge on Chris Eubank Jr in their rematch last night (15 November) after he was declared the winner by unanimous decision.
To anyone watching the fight, the verdict was never in doubt considering Benn dominated proceedings in the ring, landing far more punches against an opponent who looked some way from his best.
Chris Eubank Jr marched into the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in a white fur coat flanked by his father, Chris Sr, and rapper 50 Cent, but once he stepped into the ring Benn was in control throughout the night.
Months ago, Eubank Jr won the first fight between the pair and Benn had insisted there wouldn't be a third fight between them, so it appears as though their rivalry will end up with honours even and one victory apiece.

For anyone doubting how the scorecards would turn out, the fight seemed to be summed up in the final round as Eubank Jr was knocked down twice as it underlined Benn's dominance.
However, some boxing fans have seen the scorecards from the fight and there's one thing about them which has left them quite shocked.
Howard Foster scored the fight 119-107, Marcus McDonnell put it at 118-108 and John Latham scored the boxing match at 116-110, with fans being surprised at the latter card.
With the scorecards released, fans could see that by round eight the other judges had the fight 79-73 in Benn's favour, a sign of his clear dominance from the beginning.
But when they looked at Latham's score with four rounds to go, he had both boxers on even footing at 76-76, with some wondering if he was 'watching another fight' and feared that we could have seen 'one of the biggest robberies of all time'.
Someone even branded it an 'utter disgrace' as they could hardly believe that the judge had thought Eubank Jr the better in four out of the first eight rounds.
By contrast, the other judges had each only given Eubank Jr more points than Benn in one of those first eight rounds.
Still, as far as Benn is concerned it'll be all's well that ends well as he boxed brilliantly and got the win he'd been hoping for.
He's said the rivalry between the Benns and Eubanks, their fathers fought twice in the 90s, with Eubank Sr winning one and the other being a draw, was 'over'.
After his victory, he said: "I want to thank everyone that has come out tonight, it's been some journey. This is the end of the Benn-Eubank saga, over. Chris has twins coming and I have my boy, but this ends here.
"Everyone says I can't box, put that in your pipe and smoke it.
"This wouldn't have been what it was without Chris. Our dads most of all, this is generational, never been done before in history. Credit to Chris, thank you for sharing the ring with me.
"Not bad for two silver spoon kids!"
