Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn’s upcoming boxing match is still weeks away, but their fiery feud shows no signs of cooling down. The two fighters nearly came to blows during an intense appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, where tensions boiled over as they discussed their viral egg incident and personal jabs.
The drama began during a promotional event in Manchester, where Chris Eubank Jr. shocked everyone by smashing an egg on Connor Benn’s face. Naturally, Benn didn’t take kindly to the public humiliation, and security was quickly called in to keep the fighters from getting physical. The moment instantly went viral, with fans buzzing about the escalating rivalry between the two.
During their sit-down with Piers Morgan, the heated exchange continued. As the two boxers relived the egg incident, the tension was palpable. Security personnel stood between them, clearly worried the confrontation might turn violent again. The situation got even more intense when Eubank Jr. reportedly warned Benn’s father, former champion Nigel Benn, that he’d knock him out if he ever touched him again.
This prompted Connor Benn to jump out of his seat, ready to throw down, while Eubank stood his ground, both men jawing at each other throughout the exchange. It’s clear the bad blood between the two is far from over.
In the interview, Connor Benn warned Eubank Jr. that talking about his father was a huge mistake, while Eubank shot back, saying Benn made a bigger mistake by agreeing to the fight in the first place.
The fight is scheduled for April 26 in London, and judging by the tension in their interview, it’s shaping up to be an explosive showdown. Fans can expect fireworks when these two finally step into the ring, but it looks like their feud will continue to provide drama in the lead-up to the bout.
