Conor Benn said "what's 50 Cent going to do?" after being surprised that Chris Eubank Jnr was walking out to the ring with the American rapper - something he wasn't aware of.
Eubank Jnr walked out at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the company of his legendary dad Eubank Sr. The pair were also accompanied by the music icon, who performed his hit song 'Many Men'.
He was aiming for a repeat of his victory back in April, but was ultimately outclassed by his rival. It is a rivalry that dates back to the 1990s when the pair's fathers fought in two titanic contests, but Benn finally got a victory for his family. The judges scoring it 119-107, 116-110 and 118-108 in his favour.
Benn had been dominant from the first bell and that afforded him a comfortable lead going into the final round when he put Eubank down twice. He jumped up on to the ropes to celebrate when the final bell rang and hit out at the doubters.
He said: "Everyone says I can't box, put that in your pipe and smoke it. This wouldn't have been what it was without Chris. Our dads most of all, this is generational, never been done before in history. Credit to Chris, thank you for sharing the ring with me."

Benn walked in to resounding cheers with his father Nigel alongside him. They had a percussion troop with them who started off with Phil Collins' 'In the Air Tonight', before transitioning into a remix of 'Ready or Not' by the Fugees.
"There was a lot of pressure on me to settle it tonight, I felt the pressure. Not from the world, I just wanted to do the family name proud," Benn said. "I've completed it mate! We're only just getting started."
Eubank Jnr, now 36, refused to rule out retirement, but said he needed time to heal after hinting at problems in the build-up to the fight, but refused to delve into it when questioned in the press conference.
He said: "I've been through hell and back to make it here. I genuinely thought that regardless of the issues that I have been dealing with, I would be able to go in there and win, use my boxing skills and use what I used in the first fight to beat Conor Benn. From that first round, I realised that I was mistaken, but it's OK."
Despite having one win each to their name Benn suggested that the pair should call a line under their rivalry. "This is the end of the Benn-Eubank saga. Over. Chris has twins coming and I have my boy, but this ends here," he said.
Whilst he claimed that money can ultimately turn heads he doubled down on his point by adding: "I think we should just let it lie now. We've done what we had to do – we sold out the stadium twice."
