Chris Eubank Jr. declares that he won’t box once more until he is “100%” in good health.

The British boxer, who lost to Conor Benn last month, claims to have been “living with a lot of health issues over the past year.”

Eubank, 36, did not provide any details about his condition, but instead posted a video of him receiving care from doctors in a hospital along with a statement.

He said on X, “It all finally caught up with me last month.”

“I won’t box again until I’ve reached 100%,” the boxer said.

Benn overcame Eubank, who lost the first fight between the pair by unanimous consent.

The boxers agreed to a rehydration policy in both fights and were not permitted to put on more than 10 pounds between weigh-ins and the fight’s opening morning.

Eubank posed the idea of retirement before saying he wouldn’t be hanging up his gloves during fight week for the rematch with Benn.

Eubank maintains plans to fight for the title while remaining one of the middleweight champions.
