Eubank vs Benn: Boxers kept apart by security but exchange verbal blows
Benn kept quiet while Eubank talked until he aimed at his father, Nigel Benn, which pushed Conor’s angry response.
Nigel Benn seemed to grab his throat after Eubank smashed an egg in Manchester’s face.
“If your hand touches me again, you won’t be back to its original state,” Nigel Benn, the 61-year-old, responded to his actions with Eubank.
Before Thursday’s media event, Conor Benn told the BBC Sport that he was still “smoking” about what happened and said Eubank “pokes the bear”.
Bain said: “Everyone likes a little push and push. No problem. But, never reach your hand to someone.
“But in the end, he will pay the price. Finally, I will laugh once. The conversation is done.
“He did what he had to do, and Chris did a great job of fighting. Now, more and more people are watching him get eliminated.”
Eubank wasn’t shocked by Benn’s words, saying, “Pull the bear? OK. That’s the idea of ​​attracting these people. I can’t make him feel comfortable around me.
“This is boxing. I’m not making friends here. We’re going to fight. We’re going to hurt each other in this stadium for a few months. Danger is our job.”
