Chris Eubank Jr. has revealed his ideal roadmap ahead as he prepares to return to the ring later this year.

The middleweight will take on fellow Brit Conor Benn for a second time on November 15, after defeating his arch-rival via unanimous decision on points in April this year.

The fight was a well-contested and competitive affair, leaving no option but to stage a rematch between the two boxers.

November's rematch will yet again take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and is expected to generate much excitement among boxing fans.

With the rematch just 10 weeks away, both fighters are sure to soon ramp up preparations and get themselves in the best possible shape for the bout.

However, Eubank is already looking beyond his upcoming fight with Benn and at potential bigger fights down the line.

Eubank targeting winner of upcoming undisputed showdown

Eubank is keen to deal with Benn once more so he can set up one particular fight in 2026.

He aspires to face the winner of the hotly-anticipated contest between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford.

Canelo Alvarez - Terence Crawford

Canelo will be defending his undisputed super-middleweight title against Crawford this Saturday (September 13) in Las Vegas, with the fight being hyped as the biggest of this decade.

"It's a fight that I'm looking at closely, because after I dispatch Conor Benn for the second time either one of those two, Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford, I would love to share the ring with," Eubank told Sky Sports.

"I'm here to fight the big names. I want the biggest fights. I want the fights that the fans want to see," the middleweight star added.

"Canelo is the name in the sport right now. If Crawford wins, he's the name in the sport, and I would want to take him on."
