Chris Eubank Jr admits he is in ‘pain’ after being called a disgrace by father
The pair are said to not have spoken in ‘years’ following the breakdown of their relationship.
Chris Eubank Jr revealed he is in “pain” following his father’s comments where he labelled him a “disgrace” for slapping rival Conor Benn with an egg in their February press conference.
The pair are said to not have spoken in “years” following the breakdown of their relationship after Eubank Jr removed his father as part of his boxing entourage.
The comments come ahead of Eubank Jr’s and Benn’s showdown at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.
“My own father, a man I’ve idolised for my entire life, doesn’t speak to me, we haven’t spoken for years and he thinks I’m a disgrace. These things is what pain is to me,” Eubank Jr said at a press conference on Thursday.
Eddie Hearn stormed out of the press conference after Eubank Jr continued his pre-fight antics of not letting the Matchroom promoter speak without interruption.
Hearn left the stage and allowed Matchroom CEO Frank Smith to take his place at the table.
