Jnr did a great job making it clear that cleared doesnt mean innocent “How many eggs did you eat” Also Hearns a shameless ****, trying to take the moral high ground after the first fight and his attempt to throw jnr in with a drugs cheat
Yep. Bellew talks a lot of crap but he was spot on with what he said about scratches to the eye. They never recover fully and it is hideously painful. When it happened to me I said I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Am sure CEJ could have nailed the point in a better way. He was in top form during that presser, exactly the right blend of arrogance and humour. He let himself down with that. Unfortunately it will appeal to the Misfits generation.
That was funny as ****. I was all set for one of Eddies little bull**** inspirational stories but Eubank shut it down straight away. Hearn was fuming
I remember going to Joshua v Martin, April 2016 when Benn made his debut. Nearly 9 years on and he still hasn’t won a British title, let alone fought for one. Unbelievable. loved the egg in the face, quality move. I don’t think the fight should be happening, even more so with the rehydration clause.
Is that zit on Hearns neck Matchrooms new signing? Hearn trying to create a narrative about "the eye" when the egg hit Benn flush on the cheek. CEJ has got them all on strings. Benn said "5 Rounds" which a week or so back became "3 Rounds" to last night tweeting "2 Rounds". If Benn comes out all emotional charging forward, he'll walk straight into a CEJ counter which is what CEJ wants. He is playing Benn like a fiddle and the dumb eggberk can't see it. Froth Froth and an extra helping of Froth.

It was an egg not a grenade mate. Benn is a drug cheat who was taking all sorts to make himself much more dangerous than an egg. that should be the discussion not egg
Completely agree, it should be the discussion. By doing what he did though, Eubank made this the discussion point. As I said in my post, he nailed the rest of the presser but totally ballsed things up by doing that.
Can't wait for young chris to teach that clown a lesson in there, its coming, it will happen and I'm here for it! Gotta be the most unlikeable fighter I've ever witnessed in the sport, sad really, I so wanted to like him being a benn snr fan back in the day, but he's a massive bell, even more so than his dad was!
I've no interest in this if Benn broke his hand and ended his career before the fight I'd probably drown in my own **** laughing.
Appeal to the misfits generation, why would you say that just because you was upset by it?? Benn is a drugs cheat, way more dangerous then an egg to the face. I thought it was perfect. Made me like Chris even more, he's putting pressure on Conor and Eggy Hearn and they can't stand it!! Roll on April, Eubank is going to smash Conor's head and I for one can't wait.
I am not upset by it. Please read my post again. I agreed with a poster who commented on eye injuries and shared my personal experiences. What Eubank did will be posted as a short video clip on all social platforms and will go viral. Perfect for the Misfits generation who like that kind of crap. What I think should have gone viral was Benn’s non-answer about being cleared. Eubank spoke too well at the press conference to be overshadowed by this stunt. In my view he misjudged things.
Same reason he was still up for fighting after the failed drug test. He wants this fight cos of the money - I actually don't think he cares if he wins or loses. Unless there is a call for a rematch I think Eubank Jr may call it a day after this fight...
