“Boycott this fight!” Eubank senior fears for son’s health

Former world champion from Great Britain Chris Eubank Sr. calls on the public to boycott the upcoming fight of his son Chris Eubank Jr. (32-2, 23 KOs) against compatriot Conor Benn (21-0, 14 KOs), which is scheduled for October 8 in London (England) ).

The fact is that the fight must take place in a contractual weight – up to 71.2 kg, and Eubank-father is worried that for his heir, speaking in the middle category (up to 72.6 kg), it will be fatally difficult to drive an additional 1.5 kg .

“Boycott the fight! he addresses the fans. You know what 3 pounds can do below the average weight limit of 33. That’s how brain injuries happen.”

Recall that not so long ago, Eubank Sr. even seemed to forbid his son to enter the ring, which is why some publications were quick to report the breakdown of the fight.

It should be noted that Benn also leaves his comfort zone for this fight, as he performs in the welterweight division (up to 66.7 kg).

Chris Jr. himself, by the way, is absolutely sure of victory. The other day he said that Benn had no chance. But the promoter of Conor Eddie Hearn, on the contrary, believes that his ward is in greater danger.
