Amir Khan made a dramatic phrase, saying that Conor Benn has enough power to knock out Chris Eubank Jr after watching the previous train. The two bitter boxing rivals will finally take the ring this Saturday (April 26) to resolve their long -lasting feud.
Eubank Jr and Benn had a collision almost three years ago, but the fight was canceled only three days earlier after Benn did not pass the drug test in accumulation. Since then, he cleaned his name and from last year he was allowed to continue his career in Great Britain, between him and Eubank Jr did not lose love, and the latter breaks the egg on the face during the conference after the press in February.
My fighters will meet in Middle Wweight who will get involved in the irrigation clause, which means that they can only add a few pounds after weighing on Friday. Benn, who recorded 14 downtime in his 23 victories, will move up two divisions from his natural class to a challenge, while Eubank Jr will have to fall.
A immense weight discrepancy led to criticism that the fight against Eubank Jr in 160 pounds is a step for a 28-year-old. Last month there was a two -time world champion, Khan, said: “I think Eubank can pour him out, but Benn rejects everyone because he has more power for his weight than most at the age of 147. But when he moves up, I don’t think he’ll take this power and will be able to knock out Eubank.”
However, Khan has completely changed his attitude and is now convinced that Benna’s additional weight will mean that he has enough power to threaten Eubank JR, even moving until the statement that he is a bigger blow.
Khan said: “Conor Benn will be in secure hands, because Eubank is not the biggest blow. It is very technical, but I think that Conor can be a bigger blow in this fight, taking some weight. So I think I think he is very even, good fight for both warriors.
He added: “But listen, everything can happen in boxing. Conor Benn could start quickly and could enter immediately and knock him out early. The way he trained – looks explosive.
“I watched him train the fight against Eubank, and he looks really risky. I think he regains this love again. You need this dance partner to restore hunger, and I think Eubank is this guy.”
However, Dad Eubank, Chris Eubank SR, committed details about the weight, recently, saying that the fight should not and will not continue, calling his son’s behavior in gathering “shameful”. The boxing legend with tears said: “I am so hurt by what happened to him, and this is the situation in which my son put in. Connor, destroy his career if they have not destroyed her yet.”
He continued: “They break the rules. And when you break the rules, we have a country of peacocks. It’s Great Britain. We have developed boxing. So stick to the rules. Otherwise, what is happening to the warriors is what you see here. The fight will not happen. I am so sure of this fact. This will not happen.”
