Conor Benn shows off new Rolls-Royce worth more than £280,000 with wife Victoria – after ‘earning £8m’ from losing to Chris Eubank Jr

Conor Benn is ready to hit the road after splashing the cash on a Rolls-Royce believed to be worth more than £280,000.

The British boxer visited the luxury car brand’s Mayfair showroom with his wife Victoria to pick up the keys to his new drive.

Benn, who earned a reported £8million from his recent fight with Chris Eubank Jr, picked out a Rolls-Royce Cullinan.

He got a white exterior and a customised interior with orange upholstery and a screen calling him ‘the Destroyer’, as well as the traditional Rolls-Royce umbrella. 

Benn, 28, even shared a kiss with Victoria to mark the special moment, sharing pictures on Instagram and writing: ‘Fat Boy Money’.

It is not clear exactly how much Benn paid, though the Mayfair location appears to sell the Cullinan from 2023 second-hand, with a retail price of £284,950.

Picking up his new motor, Benn wore his £100,000 custom ‘Not Guilty’ necklace.

That item of jewellery is a statement protesting his innocence after he tested positive twice for the banned substance clomifene in 2022, leading to his bout with Eubank Jr being delayed by 30 months.

The pair eventually went toe-to-toe on April 26, with Eubank Jr winning via unanimous decision at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

It was a gut-busting fight, one in which both competitors left everything in the ring as they sought to settle a long-standing grudge.

Their fathers had been rivals in the 1990s, with Chris Eubank Sr beating Nigel Benn for the WBO Middleweight Championship in 1990 and retaining his WBC Super-Middleweight crown with a draw in 1993.

Benn let off steam at the Miami Grand Prix over the weekend, watching on as Oscar Piastri picked up his fourth win of the season.

That visit entailed a rather awkward grid-walk interview with Sky Sports’ Martin Brundle, who made a slip-up when talking to the boxer. 

‘Wow! What a boxing match that was – congratulations,’ said Brundle.

Benn quickly replied: ‘Thank you, I appreciate that. Although it was a great fight, I didn’t get the W [win] which I hoped for.

‘So hopefully we’ll run it back in September and I can make amends. 

‘This is my first time here. It’s absolutely amazing, what an event, what an occasion, I see why loads of people turn up.’
