Chris Eubank Sr. He appeared in his son’s most essential fight when Chris Eubank Jr. He provided a huge payment in Great Britain.

The British boxing legend, which dominated this sport in the 90s, made a dramatic entrance to the elevator, which even surprised the broadcasters and the crowd on Saturday.

When the cameras focused on the elevator referred to at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium during the coefficient, the image of Eubank Sr. He appeared next to his son. The reaction of over 65,000 participants was overwhelming, because huge doping broke out in the whole place.

Conor Benn was reflected in the wardrobe, where the rival Nigel Benn tried to peaceful his offspring.

A moment later Eubank Jr. He started to the ring, walking to the Eubank SR theme “just the best” of the iconic and delayed Small Turner.

The rest, as they say, is a story.

Eubank Jr. He got involved in the battle, which he probably did not plan before the fight, but one that was necessary in given circumstances.

The couple exchanged blows in the same form as their parents, because the opportunity gave them a goal for their less than impressive boxing careers.

When the victory of 116-112 after twelve rounds appeared after twelve rounds, Eubank confessed to Benn’s skills.

“Everything surprised me. I did not know that he had what he had in him,” Eubank pointed out after this unanimous decision. “Really not.

“You know, I thought he would break him early. I underestimated him and did not train such a fight. I did not know that he had in him; he never showed it. But on the other hand he never had to show it. He had to show it tonight, and I also did it

He added: “I knew that I was able to do it. I just needed someone who led me out. I am not going to lie, I did not expect that he would be a guy. But the fact that our fathers did what they did all years ago, brings out a different soul, a different spirit.

“It was we both showed here tonight.”

Speaking at a press conference after the fight, Benn stated that if the payment closed a certain closure of Eubank with his father, he had no problem with losing.

“Relations with my father is unique, I would choose a relationship with my dad because of boxing,” said Benn.

“If this fight connected Chris and his dad, he is worth his weight in gold.”

It is expected that the rematch will occur when both men recover because Eubank vs Benn lives after a 35-year break.

However, if the senior did not appear to delight his average son, Benn would undoubtedly celebrate victory.

Tony Bellew's Bold KO Prediction for Dubois vs Wardley 2: "Yep, I Said It"

Tony Bellew is going against the grain for tonight’s Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley rematch.

The pair meet again just five months on from their thrilling first encounter, with Dubois now WBO champion having won the belt from Wardley via eleventh round stoppage.

After surviving two early knockdowns, the Londoner – who is now in his second stint as heavyweight titlist – took over the contest with a solid jab setting up thudding attacks that exhausted Wardley.

Though the Ipswich man stayed on his feet throughout, referee Howard Foster waved it off as the punishment because too much.

It is how the fight ended, and those last few rounds in which Dubois was largely dominating, that make him a strong favourite to retain his belt.

Giving his prediction to the BBCformer cruiserweight world champion Bellew backed Wardley to have success early again, but capitalise fully this time and end it.

“I’m going to be the difference. I am going to back Fabio Wardley by knockout within six rounds. Yep, I said [it]. I’m going for Fab within six.”

Dubois was on the canvas within ten seconds last time out, and took a knee in the third when hurt again.

Bellew has questioned Dubois’ resolve in the past, pointing to his stoppage loss to Joe Joyce as proof that there is a point he can be pushed to that he is not willing to go beyond. Many, however, will look to the first Wardley performance and disagree.

Both men recorded the highest weights of their careers on the scalessuggesting that neither will be changing the gameplan to a more measured affair, rather looking to engage in round 13 from the off tonight at London’s O2.

Peter Fury Shares Final Thoughts on Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley 2: I Still Think That

Peter Fury Shares Final Thoughts on Daniel Dubois vs Fabio Wardley 2: "I Still Think That"

Top trainer Peter Fury has offered his expert analysis on the rematch between Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley, believing it is still a 50/50 fight.

Others, meanwhile, will argue that Dubois should be made a considerable favourite, based on how he was able to dismantle Wardley in their first encounter.

In order to do so, the ‘Dynamite’ puncher was compelled to climb off the canvas in rounds one and three, having been put down by blows to the top of his head.

Proceedings then became a little one-sided as Dubois, utilising his fundamentals, managed to score an 11th-round finish with his thudding jab and superior footwork.

Wardley, however, wasted little time before activating the rematch clause in their contract and, in turn, securing the chance to reclaim his WBO title at London’s O2 Arena tomorrow evening.

Many will argue that such a swift turnaround could lead to his downfall while, due to his power and toughness, others would suggest that the 31-year-old is always dangerous, no matter the opponent standing across from him.

As such, coach Fury has told Boxing King Media that, while Dubois is rightfully brimming with confidence, it would be foolish to entirely dismiss Wardley’s attributes.

“I think it’s a great heavyweight fight – Dubois has got heavy hands and a good jab as well, so it’ll be interesting.

“You’ve got to say Wardley’s got it all to do, because the confidence of Dubois will be high. And if Dubois’ super confident, he’s a problem.

“But let’s see – Wardley was able to hurt Dubois early on. I still think that fight is a 50/50 fight.”

If he emerges victorious against Wardley, then Dubois will likely be targeting a unification match with Agit Kabayel or Filip Hrgovic in 2027.
