Nigel Benn was strangely very irate after his son’s win despite it being such an outstanding achievement this weekend in boxing.
Former world champion Nigel Benn watched his son Conor Benn thump home to victory in a vintage boxing clinic put on by Benn junior.
Out pointing Eubank Jr over the duration in an excellent fight again, but one there was only one winner in.
Nigel Benn Reacts To Conor Benn Defeating Chris Eubank Jr
After the fight at the post fight presser Nigel Benn instead of focusing on his son Conor’s outstanding achievements, instead decided to focus on Chris Eubank senior (his old rival in the opposite corner for Eubank Jr):
“I’m going to say it now, when we had the weigh-in and the face-off, he was dancing because he loves the limelight. He doesn’t care about his son; he just loves the limelight. And he’s dancing.”
Chris Eubank Jr is a character in the sport, as are many world champions and the elite level fighters in professional boxing.
It is part of the show and if not for Chris Eubank senior in the first fight, and the second fight as well, the event would not have done so well.
Sold so many tickets and done so many viewers worldwide.
This weekend was Conor Benn’s moment and full credit to him, what a fighter in the making.
He is still improving as a fighter, don’t forget.
Here’s the moment Conor Benn got the decision against Eubank Jr.
