The Wednesday media event was the first time Eubank and Benn have seen each other since their first bout.<\/p>\n
Eubank was admitted to hospital after the win and said he lost a toenail to “severe dehydration”.<\/p>\n
“I’ve never heard so much waffle,” Hearn replied. “You are playing the victim.”<\/p>\n
The British rivals will fight again in November, with Benn seeking revenge after a points loss.<\/p>\n
The rematch is attempting to recapture the magic of the first fight, when the sons of boxing legends Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn faced off in front of 60,000 people at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.<\/p>\n
Eubank Jr and Hearn clashed repeatedly during the build-up to the first fight, with the former taking to heckling the Matchroom promoter whenever he spoke.<\/p>\n
The bad blood has seemingly spilled over, with Eubank Jr accusing Conor Benn of going on a “victory tour” despite losing.<\/p>\n
“I’m telling you right here and now, you ain’t no champion and you most definitely ain’t no people’s champion,” Eubank said.<\/p>\n
“These men aren’t not men of the people. They are pretending. They’re pretending to be the good guys. Wolves in sheep’s clothing.”<\/p>\n
Benn did not rise to the bait of Eubank, letting his promoter do most of the talking.<\/p>\n
But the 28-year-old promised to be less “greedy” in the rematch.<\/p>\n
“It felt like I was one punch away from winning, but I was always looking for the one punch,” he said.<\/p>\n
After a news conference full of squabbling, the face-off passed without major incident.<\/p>\n
Eubank smirked at Benn, but after the egg-slap incident<\/a> earlier this year, there was plenty of security nearby to keep things cordial.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
