Chris Eubank SR has an opponent ready for Conor Benn
The very anticipated resentment between Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn is just over a month, and family rivals close the corners at the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium on April 26.
Hype for Eubank vs Benn last month went to overdrive when the first one He hit his younger rival On the other side of the egg after a heated press conference.
One of the men who does not seem to be excited about the fight is “the father of the next generation, Chris SR, who repeatedly stated that he does not believe that it would happen.
The couple were originally to fight in October 2022, before the news about Bennie passed two drug tests, which only two days pulled the event.
And Eubank SR said that his nephew Harlem would be ready for a “destroyer” – in his words – “when” he fights with his son.
“Conor was a warrior 147, he is broken, he is misled, Harlem is man for him.
“When the fight falls and I am talking about junior against Conor, Harlem will be ready. It may not be at the same time, but it will be another fight for them, I think.
Absolutely [it’s not going to happen]. I said it for the last time, if you check when the fight stayed for the first time, I said that it would not happen and the day before the fight was pulled. “

Eubank fought with Conor Nigel’s father in two unforgettable battles in the 90s, emerging with one victory and one draw in probably the biggest competition of British boxing.
Eubank spoke after the impressive win of Harlem over the tough Irish Tyrone McKenna last weekend, where he dominated the opening bell before he scored a tenth space.

Although the talented warrior himself, the 31-year-old profile pales compared to his polarizing cousin and it seems unlikely that in the near future he is fighting Benne.
Most observers perceive Eubank Jr as a favorite in the hit next month, but there are concerns about how much, at the age of 35, the reported rehydration clause by 10 pounds will come out of it.
Frank Warren is promoting a Doncaster show for the first time in over thirty years, while Dave Allen is keen to disrupt the odds in his hometown.
Hrgovic will enter the competition as the clear favorite against Allen after his last victory in Saudi Arabia.
“El Animal” heads into the main event looking to burst the bubble of Allen, who is fighting in Doncaster for the first time in over 10 years.
Over the years, Hrgovic has competed at a higher level, with wins over Zhilei Zhang, Dempsey McKean and Joe Joyce.

He last saw action in the Moses Itauma vs. Dillian Whyte match in Riyad, Saudi Arabia.
The Croatian defeated David Adeleye on a huge scorecard, although he faced some adversity in the eighth round when the Briton reacted well after being dropped himself in the earlier round.
During the period in which Hrgovic did not fight, Allen fought twice, the first in October when he faced Tyson Fury’s last opponent, Arslanbek Makhmudov. at the Sheffield Arena.
“The White Rhino” was outscored over 12 rounds, with the three judges scoring him 109-117, 110-116 and 111-115.
Allen returned four months later when he faced French heavyweight Karim Berredjem, whom he handled easily, stopping his fighter with a minute remaining in the first round.
Allen spoke to professional boxing fans after the pair faced off for the first time during fight week and admitted he was the underdog but was joyful for the opportunity.
“I can’t sit here and say I can beat him, but I know I can compete with him.
“You never really know because you might have a one night stand. I just need one night, like when Lucas Browne left his upper body to finish him off.”
“Or [when he won against] Nick Webb, if I hit any of them, it’s game over.
“So I’m going into this with a little more confidence, more confidence than I’ve ever had before.”
Prediction: Hrgovic will have to be at his best to avoid being dragged into the deep end like he was in the eighth round against Adeleye, but he should have enough points to score over the tough Allen.
