Eddie Hearn playfully taunts Chris Eubank Jr before his upcoming Conor Benn fight, suggesting Eubank may be preparing excuses. Eubank's recent Instagram post showcasing a blistered foot prompted Hearn's speculation about potential pre-fight justifications. Both fighters have been rigorously training for their highly anticipated match on April 26.
Originally set for October 2022, the fight was postponed due to Benn's clomifene test result, which was later explained by increased egg consumption. The subsequent altercation involving an egg-slap by Eubank at a press conference further fueled the rivalry. With Benn's anti-doping ban lifted, the rematch with Eubank was scheduled, including a rematch clause, to be held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
