Pocket full of problems: Eubank Jr. egg smuggling trick at Benn’s press conference

Chris Eubank Jr. published a photo of his jacket, which he had hired in a pocket full of raw eggs to crush Conor Benn during his confrontation today at Manchester Central.

The egg

It is not clear why I needed a complete pocket full of eggs, but I could have wanted extra ammunition in case one of them breaks. He had him around today’s press conference to promote his April 26 fight at the Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium in London, England. Eubank Jr. (34-3, 25 kos) was quite diverted with his planning. Benn had no idea that he was going to be nailed by the egg.

The promoter Eddie Hearn says he wanted to have chosen a bigger place because he expected the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium for Friday, 62,850 seats on Friday.

Eubank JR-Benn is expected to have two fights, and who emerges victorious in the second fight will face Canelo Álvarez for his unified titles of super medium weight in 2026. He goes to a problem for Benn (23-0, 14 kos) in As the size if he wins. It is a welter weight and has never fought anyone remotely as talented as Canelo.

“The only thing I am upset now, and I live the Tottenham stadium, but we really needed a much larger stadium, because these presale tickets have moved as never before. We know that Friday is an instant sale anyway, but we could have made it with 100,000 easy in this fight, ”said Eddie Hearn to media Today on the April 26 fight between Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn.

“I don’t think I knew it,” Hearn said about Eubank Jr’s promoter, Ben Shalom, suspecting being aware that Chris Jr. had hidden eggs to hit Benn on his face.

“Eddie, we have been trying to leave Chris Jr. what he will say. He didn’t tell me. I wouldn’t tell his girlfriend, and he wouldn’t tell his best friend, “Shalom said.” We know why now. “

“I think Conor’s future has returned to 147,” said Hearn. “If you treat with an average style weight, who knows? But it is a great jump to 168 and a great jump in the size of Canelo Álvarez. Conor is a size similar to that of Crawford, but does not have its credentials. Frankly, it still does not have its ability. I think Crawford will probably be defeated (by Canelo). “

Hearn was doing great production especially today’s episode, just following and continues about it, instead of accepting that Benn had been asking for this. He is the one who ruined the plans to fight three years ago by positive for a ped. If they had fought at that time in 2022, the fight would have been much larger than it is now.

“But if he (Benn) approaches the medium weight and destroys Eubank in three rounds, which is very possible, who knows?” Hearn said.
