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.

Canelo warned his path back to undisputed status would be blocked: ‘I’m standing in his way’

Canelo Alvarez could face some grave resistance if he tries to become a three-time undisputed 168-pound champion.
The 35-year-old hasn’t fought since last September, when he lost his four major super middleweight titles in a unanimous decision loss to Terence Crawford.
However, judging by his results, the Mexican is still able to compete at the world level, just not with such a great generation as Crawford.
But still, Canelo is ready to secure a world title shot in his next outingwhich is scheduled to take place on September 12 in Riyad, Saudi Arabia.
Among the names mentioned as potential opponents is Christian Mbilli, who was elevated from “interim” to full WBC champion shortly after Crawford’s retirement.
Earlier, the Frenchman achieved a fascinating 10-round draw with Lester Martinez, who was on the Canelo-Crawford card.
As for the other 168-pound champions, there’s also Jose Armando Resendiz and Osleys Iglesias, with Hamzah Sheeraz seeking to capture the vacant WBO world title on May 23.
Standing in his way is Al Begic, whom the 26-year-old must defeat on the card in the Oleksandr Usyk vs. Rico Verhoeven match before setting his sights on a fight with Canelo.
Ultimately, however, Sheeraz actually sees himself fighting the four-division world champion Ring Magazine that he can apply the WBO belt as a bargaining chip.
“I have to admit it would be nice to get Canelo. And of course it would be a lot more lucrative if I won the world title earlier.
“I’m sure his plan is to try and become undisputed [champion] again, God willing, I will become world champion on May 23. I will stand in the way of him becoming undisputed [champion].
“Maybe we will finally fight for all the belts. I feel like this fight can definitely blossom in the future.”
For an undisputed clash between Canelo and Sheeraz to take place, the pair must win their next fights well and together dethrone the remaining champions in their division.

Mauricio Sulaiman claims that Crawford knew in advance that he would have to pay $300,000. dollars fee for WBC

Mauricio Sulaiman says Terence Crawford was aware of the WBC’s reported $300,000 penalty charge long before his undisputed fight against Canelo Alvarez last September, providing a different version of the recent dispute over the champion’s title costs
The WBC president addressed the issue during a recent interview after Crawford publicly questioned why the organization would not honor terms that he believed had been accepted by other sanctioning bodies. Sulaiman said the amount had already been communicated in advance and was not a surprise once the fight was finalized.
“He knew well in advance what the WBC estimated for this particular fight and it was supposedly 300,000. That was the upper limit,” Ring Champs said of Crawford before his fight with Canelo.
Sulaiman added that this amount is lower than the percentage the organization says it can collect under its regulations. He said the WBC capped the fee rather than applying the full rate.
The dispute became a topic of discussion after Crawford publicly responded to previous comments related to the sanctions process. Sulaiman avoided escalating the exchange, saying he did not want to personally criticize Crawford.
“I’m not going to talk bad about Crawford,” Sulaiman said.
He also said that fighters and promoters receive contracts and terms before title fights are approved, describing the process as standard practice and not something created for a single event.
“There are contracts. When you as a promoter give in and get sanctioned, there are rules,” Sulaiman said.
When a player earns tens of millions, the standard 3% suddenly becomes sedate money, and that’s when the backlash usually begins.
The comments highlight a long-standing problem in boxing, where sanction fees are often accepted during negotiations but become controversial when vast funds are involved. Huge fights usually reveal how much power the belts still carry.
