Benn kept quiet while Eubank talked, until he took aim at his father Nigel Benn which promoted a furious response from Conor.<\/p>\n
After Eubank smashed an egg in Benn’s face in Manchester, Nigel Benn appeared to grab him by the throat.<\/p>\n
Former two-weight world champion Nigel Benn, 61, apologised for his actions with Eubank responding by accepting before saying: “If your hand ever touches me again, you won’t get it back.”<\/p>\n
Before Thursday’s media event, Conor Benn told BBC Sport he was still “fuming” about what happened and said Eubank has “poked the bear.”<\/p>\n
“Everyone loves a little push and a shove,” Benn said. ”That’s alright, no problem. But never raise your hands to somebody.<\/p>\n
“But ultimately, he will pay the price. In the end, I will have the last laugh. The talking’s done. <\/p>\n
“He’s done what he had to do, well done Chris on building up the fight. Now more people get to watch him get knocked out.”<\/p>\n
Eubank was unfazed by Benn’s words, saying: “Poking the bear? Good. That’s what is needed to get into the minds of these people. I can’t let him be comfortable around me.<\/p>\n
“This is boxing. I’m not here to make friends. We are going to fight. We are going to hurt each other in this stadium in a few months time. Danger is what we do.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
