CONOR BENN lost £50,000 in three months on a dud Rolls-Royce.
The 28-year-old son of British ring legend Nigel banked £8million and a brand new Roller for suffering a unanimous decision loss to Chris Eubank Jr in April.

But he’s still wounded by the first luxury motor he bought with his earlier purses.
Benn, speaking to Reece Mennie on his podcast, explained all about his worst ever investment.
He smiled as he said: “My Rolls-Royce! Not the one that I just bought, but the one before.
“That’s the worst investment I’ve ever made and it hurt me. I had it for about three months and lost £50,000 on it.
“Don’t buy a Rolls-Royce with a body count on it!”
Benn and Eubank, 36, are contractually tied to a rematch with their Saudi sponsors booking the rerun for September 20.
Before then, fight fans have the undisputed heavyweight decider at Wembley on July 19, when undefeated Oleksandr Usyk goes up against Daniel Dubois for a second time.
And Benn is backing the Ukraine genius to dominate the Brit powerhouse again.
The super-welterweight said: “I think Usyk beats every person on the planet.
“But you can’t write fighters like Dubois or AJ off, they make boxing exciting.
“The kind of boxers that go down and get back up when you think it’s lights out and pull it out of the bag.
“That makes boxing exciting, people love a bit of vulnerability and adversity in the ring.
“I think Dubois is coming off a good run and he could knock him out, but it would have to be really early.
“He can hurt Usyk of course, but Usyk is like a computer that downloads the data, processes it and does what he needs to do with it. I think he will be a lot more clued up this time with what to expect.”
Benn and Dubois have their opponents and dates confirmed but Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are still messing around regarding their comebacks.
The Iflord brawler predicts an all-English riot soon, though.
Don’t buy a Rolls Royce with a body count on it!”

“The fight has got to happen,” he said. “It can’t not happen.
“It would seriously be so disrespectful to everybody if that fight did not happen.
“ I don’t really want to sit on the fence. I just think Fury’s style could be all wrong for AJ, but then you can never write AJ off with the athleticism.
“I think it’s now at a stage of who has got what left.
“I think it would mean more to AJ, but I don’t think you can ever write Fury off, but it depends on what Fury turns up.
“I would probably have to put my money on Fury.”
