CONOR BENN has performed a last-minute U-turn on his prediction for Amir Khan's grudge match with Kell Brook.

The 35-year-old pair will settle their decade-long feud in just a matter of hours in a long-awaited domestic dust-up in Manchester.

Welterweight prospect Benn had initially tipped Brook to be victorious in the Battle of Britain but is now backing Khan to get a late stoppage victory.

The Destroyer said: "Yes, people. We're on our way to Brook-Khan.

"I was leaning towards Brook earlier on during the week and now I'm leaning towards Khan.

"I reckon Khan could stop Brook between rounds seven to twelve with a body shot.

"I'm hoping Brook wins, but my head is saying Khan."

After years of trash talk, former unified light-welterweight champ Khan is relishing the opportunity to shut Brook up once and for all.

But the Bolton bruiser is concerned about how his bitter rival will handle the loss.

He said: “I’m worried about a few things. I’m worried about Kell’s health after the beating I’m gonna be giving him.

“Another thing: I think Kell’s always been obsessed with my career, he’s like a fanboy.

"I’ve been living in his head, I think it’s at the stage where he’s gonna need to start paying me some rent.

“I think it’s more jealousy than anything.”

He added: I’m gonna go for the kill, but I’m experienced enough at this age to not make mistakes and go off the game plan.

“If you guys wanna make money, it’s a good time to make money. Put your money on me.”
