Chris Eubank Jr has expressed a desire for his father, Chris Eubank Sr., to be by his side for his upcoming fight against Conor Benn on April 26, 2025, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. This sentiment comes amidst a well-documented strained relationship between the two.
Eubank Jr. has publicly discussed how their bond fractured, particularly after the death of his brother Sebastian in 2021 and his own efforts to step out of his father’s shadow and forge an independent path in his boxing career. Despite this rift, Eubank Jr. has made an emotional plea for his father’s support ahead of what he describes as the biggest fight of his life.
During an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, he said, “I’m here. I’m getting ready for the biggest fight of my life. If you want to be next to me, like his father’s next to him, we can do it together,” referring to Nigel Benn’s presence in Conor Benn’s corner. This plea highlights Eubank Jr.’s hope for reconciliation, even as he remains uncertain whether his father will attend the bout, contrasting sharply with Nigel Benn’s consistent support for his son Conor.
