Conor Benn Uncertain About Future After Garcia Defeat

Conor Benn stated he is unsure about his future in boxing after suffering a significant defeat to Ryan Garcia on Saturday, where Garcia retained his WBC welterweight title in Las Vegas. This loss marks only the second in Benn's 10-year professional career.
At 29 years old, Benn was competing at welterweight for the first time in over four years and had indicated that this fight would be his last in that division. In a statement, he expressed that he does not have an answer to what comes next, emphasizing the sacrifices made by his family during his boxing career.
Benn, who was the WBC's number one contender, was outclassed by Garcia, who was defending his title for the first time. Following the fight, Benn was taken to the hospital as a precaution.
He mentioned plans to move up in weight regardless of the outcome and noted that a potential trilogy bout with Chris Eubank could be a future opportunity.
