Eubank Jr.’s Stream-of-Consciousness Attack

Eubank Jr. (35-3, 25 KOs) went on what could best be described as a stream-of-consciousness rant, painting Benn and Hearn as “wolves in sheep’s clothing” and accusing them of being “pretenders” who mask themselves as good guys.

“For my entire professional career, I’ve been the villain, the bad guy—38 fights of people loving to hate me,” Eubank Jr. told the media. “I’m going to tell you now, you’re not a people’s champ. You keep letting Eddie Hearn blow smoke up your a** and you’re going to end up being even more of an embarrassment than he is.”

His comments echoed his lingering resentment over the failed April 26 fight earlier this year, a cancellation that poisoned relations between the fighters and their camps.

Doubts Over Benn’s Path Back

Eubank Jr. also criticized Benn (23-1, 14 KOs) for jumping straight into the rematch rather than proving himself first against another top middleweight. He suggested that a win over names like Yoenli Hernandez or Carlos Adames would have shown fans that Benn had grown from their first meeting. Instead, he argued, Benn is rushing back in without demonstrating improvement.

A Rivalry Beyond the Ring

The animosity was clear and raw, with Eubank Jr.’s rant bordering on personal vendetta as much as sporting rivalry. His tone made it evident that this fight is about more than belts or records it’s about reputation and pride.

For Benn, the press conference was a reminder that he’ll be stepping into the ring not only against Eubank Jr.’s boxing skills but also against his psychological warfare, a battle that has already started months before fight night.
