Chris Eubank Jr: British boxer in Nigeria as he considers options for return to ring for first fight since Conor Benn defeat

Chris Eubank Jr has travelled to Nigeria as he considers options for his return to boxing.

The British star has been absent from the ring since he underwent surgery following a points loss in his rematch with Conor Benn last November.

But Eubank Jr has indicated that he is ready to resume his ring career, posting footage of him being greeted by a large crowd of young fans in Nigeria.

He added the caption: "Active in the streets of Lagos. Watch this space."

Nigerian promoter Dr Ezekiel Adamu believes Eubank Jr would attract a massive audience if he decided to fight in Africa.
