Chris Eubank Sr.The legendary was the world champion in two weight, who was carrying British boxing with dignity, pride and class until the 90s, gave the brutal message to his alienated son, Chris Eubank Jr.Just a few days before the fight with Conor Benn.

Talking with SecondsThe iconic character was not refrained – by putting the truth few in today’s sport he has the courage to say.

Eubank Sr. About the egg incident: “I didn’t teach you it.”

Eubank Sr., a man who lived in the Code of Boxing Nobility, was outraged by the behavior of the junior in accumulation, where he broke the raw egg in Benna’s face:

“Junior, you break the egg on the face of this guy … I taught you this? I didn’t teach you this. Who taught you? Did Karen teach you?”

He explained that this behavior is far below the standards that he fought for maintenance:

“It’s shameful! I will stand in your corner? You have to be enraged! I would never be in your corner, you are a disgrace!”

A fine worth 100,000 pounds was not enough to think about what Eubank SR. He perceived as a betrayal of all boxing – and his name – means.

About promoters and boxing: “Is it who we are now?”

Eubank Sr., one of the few who still defends the spirit of noble art, got into today’s promotional scene:

“These promoters do not care about boxing and the standards of boxing and noble art, which is boxing. Without a bad language, without hitting people with eggs, and then promoting. Are we right now?
Has it appeared now? Are we what we are? Is this who we are? “

He was not only disappointed – he was outraged by the way the current generation is conducted astray:

“Because if we are it, what your children will be.”

In a matter sanctioned by the fight: “You are all going in the wrong way.”

Eubank Sr. He made it clear – he doesn’t believe that this fight should even happen:

“147 against 160 is contrary to the rules. When Kell Brook was forced to fight GGG, it is contrary to the rules. This boy shattered the nest of the eyes. This is happening.
For them, promoters are only a game, but for warriors it is a way of life. “

He called the whole system of abandoning the foundations with which he and the other great people fought for protection:

“It looks like I’m the only person who says:” Stay for a moment, guys. You all go in the wrong way. “
We have to go the other way. In this way, where they take you, he is down and I don’t do it. “

About his heritage and the birth of the success of Matchroom

Eubank Sr. He also reminded everyone about what he brought to this sport – something that the promoters apparently forgot:

“I created Matchroom. Matchroom would not replace other promoters, if not for the spirit that led me to my career.”

He turned directly to Barry Hearn:

“Barry, I gave you this. You helped me and helped you. Without me I couldn’t give you a gift, but you gave it to one of your family members.
Where are you, Barry? Are you content with all this? “

Refusing the game: “I won’t be a partner.”

Asked if he appeared in the corner of the juniors or whether he would appear at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium, Eubank Sr. He was crystal clear:

“I will not be a partner in their stupidity, to their circus.”

He proudly stands in front of the circus, into which newfangled boxing turned into:

“Everything I did for boxing, I should force it to any circus? This is the wrong statement. It’s a disgrace.”

Last word: respect the legend

Chris Eubank Sr. He is not just a former master-he is a standard carrier of what he once meant boxing and what it should be.

The fighter who won the belts in the right way. A man who respectfully treated this sport and his fans. A legend that fought with the five titles of the world a year, not three fights in three years.

His voice may now sound alone in the era of acrobatics in social media and circus promotions, but do not make a mistake: Chris Eubank Sr. He is a giant whose rules are towering over the mess, today’s boxing often becomes.

You may not agree with everything he says – but you can’t deny that he speaks from a place where few others even remember.

Boxing – real boxing – needs more men like him.

Coach Bernie Davis says that WBO, Brian Norman Jr. is “the strongest blow” in the 147 pounds league after he watched Cuevas in three rounds last month on March 29. Davis says Norman Jr. And Jaron “Boots” Ennis is a “best fight” in the welterweight division.

The fight may not happen until the promoter Boots, Eddie Hearn, does not come up with a gigantic enough offer to agree with Norman Jr. (27-0, 21 KO). He did not want to raise the offer worth $ 1.7 million to $ 2.2 million, for which Norman and his dad asked.

An additional USD 500,000 is enough. Ennis could fight Norman Jr. On November 9 last year, instead of being embarrassed by Karen Chukhadzhian in a revenge at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Being affordable at the cost of Ennis, and his herds fell after this fight.

If Hearn was too economical to want to sweeten the contract last time, which makes you think he would want to raise the offer even more when the popularity of Norman Jr has increased? If Brian Jr. He wants $ 3 million now, will Hearn will be ready to invest in the future of Ennis? I doubt. Therefore, Ennis may as well go to 154 and start again. I hope his promoter this time Hearn will not be Scrooge McDuck When it comes to negotiating.

“The strongest puncher”

“Brian Norman is The strongest hit in the welterweightAnd for this fact he himself and his excellent knockout pay a man and take him to the ring. This is the best fight that can be done in welterweight, “said Bernie Davis coach Millcity boxingpraising the WBO WBO Norman Jr. And wanting to see the fight between him and the united champion of two stripes Jaron “Boot” Ennis.

It is straightforward to see the difference in power between Norman JR, 24 and Ennis shoes. The head of Norman’s impact, when they land, is much louder than Ennis’s arrows and damage that they cause his opponents.

Shoes would not be able to fight him, making shots with which he was hit in the last two fights with Eimantas Stanionis and Karen Chukhadzhian.

“I saw Brian Norman much easier because the shoes have quick hands,” said Davis. “Brian Norman is just standing there. There is really no good head movement or anything. I just think it’s a good fight. He is a adolescent master. He is a sturdy master who believes in himself and was with him in the sparring ring [Ennis]. “

Norman Jr. He stands flat, which explains why his blows are so tough. However, this is a natural force. Ennis does not hit when he is flat, even though he is a greater warrior after hydration. Norman JR, 5’8 ″, is two inches shorter than 5’10 shoes “and more compact with its power.

“As for cosmetics, this is the only reason why we say shoes [would win]Because Boots has a spectacular style, but Brian Norman is coming, “said Davis.” Have you seen Brian Norman put a wounds to this boy? “” Bernie said about Norman Jr’s victory in the third round with Derrieck Cuevas on March 29.

Cuevas gave up his feet after Norman Jr. He hurt him in this fight. He knew that if he continued the fight, he would be knocked out right away because he had trouble after he made a massive shot.

Tank -like hits

“Have you seen what he did to this guy last time? This guy came out with a lot of [firepower]And he shot, “Bernie said. “Brian Norman made this shot. This man caught him with a shot that he did not see, and he did the shooting of this kind of swaying him. But he did not stop shooting; he was not afraid. He continued and hit this man like a tank. He made a tank with him.

“He hit him in the head and did not even drop him. He dropped him with a stab of power. The man said,” I don’t want to, “Bernie said about Cuevas resignation from his legs after Norman Jr. He hurt him in the third round.

Shakur Stevenson publicly apologized to Turki Alalhikh on X, saying that he “reacted excessively” with some things he recently noticed about Turks in social media. Stevenson says, “Let’s work.” He hopes that Turks will aid him get him William Zepeda Fight on.

The airy champion of WBC Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) believes that he needs Zepeda’s fight to raise his chances of getting a lucrative master WBA Gervont Davis. He thinks that by defeating Zepeda, he will open the door to fight the tank. Maybe not.

If Turki accepts the apology of Shakura, he could still put him on the pages of the Riyadh season to Dazn PPV and let him fight anyone who wants. I want Zepedy to start with.

Fan reaction

Many fans on X want Turks to wash Shakur’s hands and let him not let him back on any of their cards after showing his ingratitude. Turki allowed him to fight an electrician on his card on February 22, defeating Josh Padley.

He could play strenuous, insisting that Shakur would fight Herrera Core or one of the other best airy rivals. With Stevenson’s performance against Padley, he lost to Herrera, Andy Cruz or Raymond Muratalla.

It is hard to know if Shakura’s apology for Turki was real or strategic in the hope that he will get the fight he wants against Zepeda. Considering how desperate Stevenson is to fight Zepeda, probably yes I try back back In the Turka shepherd, hoping that he overcomes all the fights he wants. Should Turks trust Shakur again or make him give him a hand, giving him a hand?

Shakur can fight him Zapeda and Tank Davis. It may not go well when he got on the ring with them, but at least he will be able to fight them.

In the current situation, Stevenson will not get any of these guys, and he will lose his WBC title when he defends him against 1 Andy Cruz. He is a better warrior than Shakur. If Turki manages to deliver Zepeda and Tank, Shakur will earn a lot of money, fighting them. So, even if he loses, he would make all this cake.

Excited by my next fight was a misunderstanding between Turki and the band. I am sorry that my side for excessive response 🦾 Let’s work @Turki_ALSHIKHH
