From Netflix:
Conor “The Destroyer” Benn and Regis “Rougarou” Prograis have been added as the co-main event for the upcoming heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Arsalanbek Makhmudov, live globally on Netflix on Saturday, April 11.
The event will stream live from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London.
Benn (24-1, 14 KOs) returns to the ring following his headline-making appearance at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last year, while former two-division world champion Prograis (30-3, 24 KOs) brings knockout power and championship pedigree to the stacked April card.
The main event sees former two-time heavyweight world champion Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) face fearsome puncher Makhmudov (21-2, 19 KOs) in a high-stakes clash promoted by The Ring.
“April 11th can’t come soon enough,” Benn told Netflix. “Returning to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium again, where I made history against Eubank Jr., means everything to me. My last fight there showed the world exactly who I am and what I’m about. Fighting on the biggest stages, in the biggest shows, I fear no one. I’m fully locked in and ready to deliver another statement performance.”
Benn’s confidence is met head-on by Prograis, who framed the matchup as both a professional escalation and a personal reckoning. A former world champion with knockout power and deep big-fight experience, Prograis made it clear he views the April 11 co-main event not as a showcase, but as a correction — and a chance to close the gap between past and present on his own terms.
“Last time I fought in London, Conor Benn was on my undercard,” Prograis said. “So this is a full-circle moment for me. But this circle will close with me teaching him a lesson on April 11th. He’s not fighting some weight-drained super middleweight. I am in shape and will bring home this victory.”
