Chris Eubank Jr has mocked his rival Conor Benn after an old video of him talking about drug testing re-emerged on social media.
Eubank Jr and Benn were set to continue their long-standing family rivalry with a headline bout at The O2 arena in London tomorrow night, until the younger fighter tested positive for a banned substance and the fight was cancelled. Promoters attempted to save the show, but were unable to find a solution and the event was pulled yesterday afternoon.
The pair would have made millions from a prospective bout, and Eubank Jr was at the tail end of a gruesome weight cut to 157lb, a career-low after over a decade in the sport. But he was informed that the bout was cancelled, and has since taken aim at Benn on social media in a number of statements.
