Britain’s Conor Benn will fight Regis Prograis on the undercard of Tyson Fury’s comeback fight on 11 April.

Benn recently signed with Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing in a one-fight deal reportedly worth about £11m.

Benn, 29, will be the co-main event at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

“Last time I fought in London, Conor Benn was on my undercard, so this is a full-circle moment for me,” reported American former light-welterweight world champion Prograis.

“But this circle will close with me teaching him a lesson.

“He’s not fighting some weight-drained super middleweight. I am in shape and will bring home this victory.”

Fury is signed to Frank Warren’s Queensberry, but TKO president Mark Shapiro reported on Wednesday that Zuffa Boxing will promote the fight, which will be shown on Netflix.

Prograis, 37, is a former world champion at light-welterweight, but has two losses in his past three outings, including to Jack Catterall and Devin Haney.

Benn’s most recent outing was in November when he defeated Chris Eubank Jr in a rematch.

Both bouts against Eubank were at middleweight, but Benn intends to campaign at welterweight as he seeks to earn a world title shot.

“My last fight there showed the world exactly who I am and what I’m about,” he reported.

“Fighting on the biggest stages, in the biggest shows, I fear no-one.”

Fury, who has not fought since losing to Oleksandr Usyk in December 2024, will fight Russian Arslanbek Makhmudov.
