A few take aways from this press conference: 1. Jr. won the press conference 2. Jr. is more witty than Connor 3. Kalle was awful and Eddie showed why he's levels above him
Chris Jr is hilarious. My opinion has changed on him over the years and I’m a big fan now. He’s got one of the best chins in boxing and I think he beats Benn by simply taking the life out of him round by round then gets a late stoppage. Expect a fast start from Benn who will try to give it everything early on and soon realise he can’t exchange with Chris. Looking forward to this one despite already being confident of the winner.
Jr sucks. He's only fought two real fighters and he lost to both of them. All the rest are cans. Now he's gonna bully Benn who's way smaller than him. Unfortunately for Benn his ego is bigger than his size and he's gonna get in trouble for it. Oh well who cares, the guy is lame. This is a lame fight all round, neither of these guys can lace their dads' boots.
@@jlc3004 Based on what? Who has Connor beaten which would suggest this? I know Eubank has had a few losses but he’s never been smashed or knocked out. I expect Connor to look good the first few rounds but he will soon realise he’s in with a much stronger and tougher man.
@@algo2957 Unfair comment, considering the novice fight you’re conversing about and the only fight BJS sings about was, Eubanks first 12 round fight of the genesis of his career. So in fact BJS just about defeated someone who had never been in a fight that was of 12 rounds. So who was bullying who?
Pretty sure this is all just a ruse from Eubank. Giving Benn even more incentive to feel like he can go flying in against him which I think is what Eubank genuinely wants him to do. Benn taking the bait fully if so
Benn doesn't have amazing ring IQ and trades on volume and aggression. It's also too late to turn him into a thinker with ring intellect. Eubank will tame him and then take him out.
@@paulanthony5274 you’d be surprised at the effects mental warfare can have before a fight. Conor McGregor vs Jose Aldo is one of the most perfect examples. Don’t underestimate it. But yes hopefully Benn has enough resolve to pay no attention to it
i think this was one of the only times ive enjoyed listening to eubank, hes playing the game and knows he can play it with benn can tell by hes approach
this for me shows how much Chris has grown up, if he counter punches ben like he did Liam Williams, its lights out for Conor. Ronnie Davies said few words but everyone made sense, loved the quick shot to Tony Simms who just new in his heart he was right!
@@HERMITBOY don’t know what you was watching but all I could see was fear in Eubanks eyes knowing Conor is going to put it on him and as he said he’s basically finished If he loses
@BarryCarter Jr talked with so much confidence and sense and didn’t show signs of fear. Connor was rattled and heated in exchanges and I really sensed fear in his behaviour. It was tactical that Connor wore sunglasses in there. He was avoiding eye contact with Jr.
Benn has not achieved anything in the sport Eubank has won British titles and a “ version “ of world title this is Benns biggest test how he can take confidence from knocking out 140 pounders at at 147 he hasn’t even had a tough domestic level fight - Eddie cashed him out right here and will still as Eubank said be able to rebuild him . Benn gets stopped
Eubank is 7 years older and barely achieved more than Conor in his career. Ibo title is worse than the WBA regular. Conor is past British title level now. Fighting opponents that are the same level as eubank been fighting but like I' said he is 7years younger. If Conor was the MW and Eubank was the WW people wouldn't be considering this a 50/50 fight. Eubank has no decent options which is why he took the fight. 2 fresh world level opponents he faced outclassed him. So now hes fighting domestic/European level fights. Conor has A few more levels to go through so theres plenty of options for him. And hes being paid well while he does it. Has every chance of becoming a ppv star in this country
Jnr “yes I am taking you lightly” 😅😅 I like both fighters in there own way and respect both for getting this done…but I have to admit Jnr grew on me in this presser…he’s actually really funny 😅
Wow!! Can’t believe this is going off.. I was 16 in 1990.. never did we think that we’d have the boys of ‘Our childhood’ legends fighting. Let’s fucking go!!! 🙏🙏
Chris has a great point but that’s a massive credit to Hearn as a world class promoter - geezer fooled people into thinking Benn is a world class prospect all because he’s fed him some OAPs & part timers 👍
Have you actually read eubank jnrs figh record, it is hardly worth creaming your panties over, you may recognise 3 names but the rest are bums utter shit. Go check it out its 99.9% shite
It's called learning mixed with clever promotion. The way he has put ex world champions out has been fan friendly style. Thurman then an ugas and then let him loose. If he loses against the big boys then it is what it is. No shame in being the 10th best welterweight in the world. But we dont know conors ceiling yet
I’m glad Eubank clarified who wanted this fight. They called for the fight, Eddie Hearn has to present all options to Benn and benn said make the fight. Deep down something tells me Eddie Hearn would prefer not to fight Eubank but Benn wants it so it’s made
I like Kalle but watching other Promoters always make me realise just how good Eddie is…love him or hate him boxing defo needs him 😅…. Can’t wait for this one
Jr won this presser. On paper Connor can’t beat Jr, but if anyone has the hunger to defy the odds, then it is Connor. I just want to see this fight because I never in a million years would have believed it would happen. I like both boxers equally, but Jr is solid as a rock and the bigger fighter; we shouldn’t be surprised if Jr has his way. Good luck to them both.
I can fight at world level tomorrow but that doesn't mean shit when I get spanked. Eubanks wins are no better than Connors yet eubank is 7 years further into his career. If eubank was capable of winning a world title he wouldn't have taken this fight
@@dwaynesamuels2543 Maate, have a day off will ya, Eubanks never been spanked, both losses were fairly competitive fights, Benn has not been close to fighting anyone at world level yet, different level and it will show
It's all about the money for the Vultures. As a guy who grew up not far from Ilford i am a Dark Destroyer fan. Connors Grandad worked at Fords along side my Grandad. Personally i think this is to soon but it's on and that to me gives me nostalgia. Good Luck Connor
Mate. It's more in favour for Chris than anyone. He can't use the Weight ' as an excuse Conor could. Coz he's moving up 2 Weight's. And considering. Eubanks fought at 168 before. It's even worse of a Weight' disadvantage. But don't get it twisted. Chris is a 160lb fighter. And. The fights. At 157. Chris' won the lottery getting this fight He has every Advantage So no exsuses please I think this fight could be bad for Conors future Career Tbh makes no sence for Conor
Eubank Jr vs Billy Joe Saunders : Billy won the early rounds, Eubank poured it on at the end but left it too late. Eubank Jr vs George Groves : Groves took the early rounds, Eubank poured it on at the end but left it too late again. Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn : Will Jr learn from his past mistakes or will he tell Ronnie to "Stop talking" once again? Because if Conor comes flying out the corner like the animal we all know he is and takes the first 6 rounds with Eubank Jr thinking no worries I'll just get him in the later rounds...then its panic stations again, Jr best listen to Ronnie this time and listen to him good when he says "You need to start bashing him up!"
If Eubank loses he should retire as he says.. Its not a bad match up tbh, one losing weight one gaining weight. If Eubank does what we know he can he should win in style, reach, height, and chin make him my favourite. But lets wait and see who has the bigger jacobs. Good Luck 2 both leading upto the fight. As mills used to say " Lets Get It On "...
I think benn is just a smaller version of Liam Williams and the fight will play out in similar fashion eubank in control of the pace and landing first will be key. Conors good at getting in close with his hands which could be his best chance eubank needs space to work in there he can be smothered
Do you think that someone can win a pre match build up, if so how much effect does or can this make on the night. Sometimes I feel like winning the mind games prior to the fight is akin to winning the first round; however, we all know that winning the first round doesn’t mean that you will win the fight.
I think a lot of the time what is said pre fight is just sales pitch or selling tickets so to speak. Promotional obligations. The winning of pre fight mind games really isn't that much of a decider in who's winning the fight. You can be the most eloquent articulate talker but once it's time to fight fists and boxing iq in the fight take over. You only hear cornermen talk during a fight not often the boxer. Training camps and pre existing injuries have more overall effect on a fight than pre conference verbal sparring battles.
Am I missing something cos I am hearing a lot of people already making excuses for Eubank losing cos of the weight. The fight is 157lbs. Eubank last fought in April: 160lbs Benn: 146.5lbs Benn going up 10 pounds while Eubank coming down 3, seems a little bonkers and an early excuse if needed, to say he will be at 60%. Or am I missing something?
Eubank kills himself to make 160, getting 3 more pounds off when there is nothing left to come off will be incredibly hard Benn may be able to scientifically boil himself down to 147 but he gets into the ring at 170, Hearn confirms it on his latest ifl interview. Making Chris drain down to 157 is unfair and unnecessary. The real issue is the rehydration, not allowing him to rehydrate properly is very dangerous and is actually how people die in the ring. Again totally unnecessary when Benn enters the ring at 170. If the rehydration clause is below 175 then it's a disgrace
I'm not sure if that's a big deal by cutting 3 pounds but not being able to rehydrate normally is a dis average so its a level playing field if you ask me.
Yes your missing the important bit eubanks cant contractually fully rehydrate he has to be at a certain weight the morning of the fight allowing him only 12hrs to rehydrate without using introvinous bags. This should be illegal boxing dehydrated
@@grahamlittlefair8107 ahh OK I see, the rehydration bit being the big problem rather than the 3lbs although from most people's reactions, suggests that 3lbs extra for him will be hard which I genuinely didn't know. Not with this fight, but just in general I have always wondered why weight cutting is not banned. No one doing it will surely be just as fair as everyone doing it and also safer, what do you think?
Both boys are better looking than their fathers and have the charm of conservations like their dads but cooler. I wonder what the fathers think about it. I mean did they really want their children scrapping over old beef. It’s not the same. I think the match up is more about Ben and pay. And thanks Chris for the honesty I can here there’s no beef like the dads had.
The boxing purist says Eubank wins all day, but when you're fighting for family honour giving up is not an option, he might not win , but I fancy Benn to take this fight into deep water and scare Eubank.
Benn's neck is too long. He's got his mother's neck, not his dad's. He's tried to hide it with the ridiculous tat, but that won't save him. Sooner or later he's getting ko'd.
I still doubt this fight is happening until it happens. I give credit to Benn for taking on the fight as I didn't think he would. To me this a wrong fight for Benn, Eubank will beat him but can seriously damage an upcoming. fighter in Benn.
I don't think a loss to Eubank jnr will effect Benns career that much, its not like he's he fighting for a position in his own weight class to fight for a belt. Jnr was right, it's a lose lose for him and a win win for Benn. All Benn has got to do is look half decent or have one or two really good looking rounds to come out with his career fully intact.
@@gutz323I think its a dangerous fight for both men , Eubank weight drained could go very wrong there is a lot of pride at stake neither will want to give an inch I hope both end the bout in good health.
Why would there be a rematch clause this is a freakshow fight at a catch weight. It's totally irrelevant to either of their actual careers which are at two different weights. Parker and Joyce is a meaningful fight that affects rankings and career progression etc so it makes sense to get a rematch clause
I remember watching a young eubank Sparring the then Champion carl froch and he youst to more than hold his own. I think this fights bad for. Conors carrer. Win or lose
All these comments about Benn and Eubank……… BUT it still sticks with me that Eddie said last year, quoting……. PPV is dead, DAZN is the future, no PPV events. Just a monthly subscription! PPV for DAZN U.K. customers and it won’t be for for all other countries. Why more and more people are turning to IPTV and VPN’s to stream it for free. On a boxing note, this is going to test Connor’s chin but even if he loses he will crack on at welterweight. Win win situation for Ben.
I see too many ignorant folks in the comments. Press conferences don't win fights. Yall should know this by now. Conor showed more balls and guts to take this fight than any of you can ever dream of having. Grow up. Isn't this what we boxing fans cry for? Fearless boxers who love to climb mountains? Get connected
Jr won this press conference. He had Benn riled up, whilst wearing handbags on his jacket.

On split screen they look like they are in different climate zones. Eubanks cool and Connor roasting.

Benn is biting of more than he can chew. He needs to respect Eubanks or he may get hurt badly
Every time I see kalle he just looks an sounds off his face 👀👃❄️ can blatantly tell.

Eubank Jr vs George Groves : Groves took the early rounds, Eubank poured it on at the end but left it too late again.

Benn's neck is too long. He's got his mother's neck, not his dad's. He's tried to hide it with the ridiculous tat, but that won't save him. Sooner or later he's getting ko'd.
I still doubt this fight is happening until it happens. I give credit to Benn for taking on the fight as I didn't think he would. To me this a wrong fight for Benn, Eubank will beat him but can seriously damage an upcoming. fighter in Benn.
Remember i said benn will win
I agree there are too many disparities
I don't think a loss to Eubank jnr will effect Benns career that much, its not like he's he fighting for a position in his own weight class to fight for a belt. Jnr was right, it's a lose lose for him and a win win for Benn. All Benn has got to do is look half decent or have one or two really good looking rounds to come out with his career fully intact.
@@gutz323I think its a dangerous fight for both men ,
Eubank weight drained could go very wrong there is a lot of pride at stake neither will want to give an inch I hope both end the bout in good health.
@@TheHarrybo1 I just think eubank will use his brain, not his brawn. I think experience will prevail.
eubank is right - in that he is going to be totally drained of weight and some muscle. This is a huge downside for Chris. 60 percent is factual.
True and he's not the quickest guy either so not like it will make him lightning fast, kind of an average style
Awesome press conference
360p going backwards..
Lol it was almost like watching there dads talking again at each other. They sound so much like there dads hahah. The interview was funny ha
Junior does make me laugh. Makes me giggle to myself. His humour is funny, whether he believes it or not.
Welterweights don't stand up to him 😂 I think the top 20 in any of the WW rankings would have something to say about that mate
Ortiz would bury him benn
Not the first time
Laila Ali Vs Jacqueline Frazier
Happened before this.
to be honest this is more savage than any thing that may happen in the ring🤣
Benn looks like he is doing a Stevie wonder impression , 👀
Eubank is getting his excuses in already ffs, he is worried benn has some punch and he knows that. First round will say it all eubank
Both great guys, I like them both but Benn my lad, you got a verbal lashing there mate!
Benn holding the terminator look well.
Anyone know where benns sunglasses are from?
I’ll be watching this fight, I assume most of the nation will. I just can’t see how Conor Benn wins.
Dreadful quality @360p
No rematch clause, while frank warren has a rematch clause for Joyce vs Parker 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why would there be a rematch clause this is a freakshow fight at a catch weight. It's totally irrelevant to either of their actual careers which are at two different weights. Parker and Joyce is a meaningful fight that affects rankings and career progression etc so it makes sense to get a rematch clause
This is going to be awesome
I remember watching a young eubank Sparring the then Champion carl froch and he youst to more than hold his own. I think this fights bad for. Conors carrer. Win or lose
I like conners mentality.
All these comments about Benn and Eubank……… BUT it still sticks with me that Eddie said last year, quoting……. PPV is dead, DAZN is the future, no PPV events. Just a monthly subscription! PPV for DAZN U.K. customers and it won’t be for for all other countries. Why more and more people are turning to IPTV and VPN’s to stream it for free. On a boxing note, this is going to test Connor’s chin but even if he loses he will crack on at welterweight. Win win situation for Ben.
I see too many ignorant folks in the comments. Press conferences don't win fights. Yall should know this by now. Conor showed more balls and guts to take this fight than any of you can ever dream of having. Grow up. Isn't this what we boxing fans cry for? Fearless boxers who love to climb mountains? Get connected
Not +40s mate I’m 36 and saw both bouts live.
Great match making by Eddie put DAZN to another level in England
Eubanks patronising game is on point 10/10 haha
It’s mad to watch this back knowing that Matchroom knew that day he was juiced out of his mind 😂
You can see it
Take away the weight or size differences just in boxing alone Jnr is levels above and it’s all about levels.
Chris got me laughing 😂
Brilliant 😂
He’s hilarious 😂
He could be a comedian when he's finished boxing, n I'm not joking!
Let’s get it on 🥊
Benn is having eubank jr in the fight. 8th round ko
Nobody wins a press conference ya mad men, it's not year 4
Talk to them brother
