Chris Eubank Jr spoke a short time ago at the final press conference for his big fight with Conor Benn and made an interesting observation.
Eubank Jr likes to play the bad guy marketing role in boxing at times even though he is a good bloke as is Conor Benn.
Speaking on the energy of the fight a short time ago he said:
“I felt the energy on the streets of the UK the last few months. People are invested in this. Everywhere I go people are screaming and mostly its positive. I am still getting used to that.”
They have both done well in training and promoting the fight to their credit.
You can tell Eubank Jr is going through the stress of making weight a lot more than Benn.
This is an advantage that Benn will have in the fight of course in terms of energy potentially if Eubank Jr struggles to make weight.
We don’t see that being the case though.
We’d expect both boxers to make weight tomorrow.
Good fight in store and good times ahead for boxing fans.
