Chris Eubank Jr. He said he felt pain when he was trying to reduce the burden with Conor Benn on Saturday, but this is nothing compared to other adversities he met in his personal life.

Eubank Jr. And Benn will fight at an average weight limit of 160 pounds at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium 35 years after their fathers Chris Eubank Sr. And Nigel Benn clashed in two historical fights.

There is also a 10-pound rehydration clause, which means that no warrior can bring more than 10 pounds when the weight on Saturday.

While 28 -year -old Benn is usually fighting a welterweight in the amount of 147 pounds, Eubank Jr., because a much larger person will have to reduce to bring weight. The 33-year-old said a Thursday press conference before the fight that he was fighting cutting.

“The weight is painful. I’m pain now,” he said. “I will be tonight and tomorrow morning. But the question that I ask myself sounds, what is pain?”

Eubank Jr. Then he thought about his personal regret and his brother Sebastian, who died in 2021 in response to his question.

“I have a 31-year-old brother, he is buried in the desert in Dubai, who is pain. His son Raheem, three years, asks, why can’t I see my daddy? Why can’t I take me to school? This is pain,” said Eubank Jr.

“My own father, a man whom I have been afraid of all my life, we do not say, he thinks that I am a disgrace. These things are pain for me.

Eubank Jr. He does not intend to reverse himself and not win the title of the world in 2026, like Benn. Placing one of these fighters at the national level with fighters, such as Janibek Alimkhanuly, Jaron “Boots” Ennis, or Canelo Alvarez would be a slaughterhouse.

Booty

This is not the right fight for him, so he did not take it. Money. There is a lot of money in the first fight. [with Conor] And a lot of money in the second fight, “continued Hearn about Eubank Jr.
