And to celebrate, he was gifted a cake with his infamous egg slap of Benn printed out on it.
Eubank Jr posted a video cutting into the cake as fans hailed his petty mind games online.
One said: “Eubank trolling Hearn and Benn.”
Another added: “Pettiness at its highest.”
The family feud between the two dates back to 1990 when Eubank Sr beat Benn’s dad Nigel in their thriller.
They drew three years later before their sons’ went to war over three decades later.
Benn, 28, was meant to fight Eubank Jr in a October 2022 catchweight clash at 157lb but he failed two drug tests.
He was provisionally suspended by UK Anti-Doping Agency but protested his innocence.

Benn had two underwhelming wins in America at 150lb while his doping case dragged on over two years.
The WBC infamously claimed his positive test for clomifene – known to boost testosterone – could be down to heavy egg consumption.
But Benn later saw his ban lifted by UKAD – paving the way for the second generation grudge match with Eubank.
Eubank Jr – who made reference to Benn’s doping saga by slapping an egg in his face at their launch press conference – won the bout over 12 rounds.
But per the contract already signed, the born rivals had already agreed to a rematch which was moved from September to November.
And it will be at the same restrictions of 160lb with a 10lb rehydration clause limiting them to a second weigh-in on the morning of the fight.
Eubank Jr spent two days in hospital due to severe dehydration after his brutal weight cut and rehydration restriction.
And he sensationally claimed Benn’s promoter Eddie Hearn stopped his ambulance from heading to the hospital for 20 minutes post fight.
Eubank Jr claimed: “These scumbags blocked that ambulance from leaving the stadium for 20 minutes.
“I’m sitting there with an oxygen mask on, and they are standing by the gates and won’t let us leave.
“Now, if it were a serious injury that 20 minutes could have been the difference between life and death.”
Hearn – who claimed he will SUE Eubank Jr – hit back: “I couldn’t actually believe what I was hearing.
“And he said, ‘Oh, what are you gonna do, sue me?’ Yeah. Abso-f***en-lutley.
“Because you ain’t accusing me and my company of things like that. My dad has worked his whole life to build a reputation in the sport which, by the way, you seem to think doesn’t exist, for you to make up lies about my company.
“And that will be dealt with.”
