Chris Eubank Jr has been told by Eddie Hearn that he will have to retire if he pulls out of his fight with Conor Benn on the advice of his dad.
The two legends' sons will reignite British boxing's most notorious feud when they meet at The O2 arena on October 8, with the pair both making major weight concessions to force the bout through. Eubank Jr will hit a career-low weight on 157lb, while Benn jumps up essentially two divisions.
However, Eubank Jr apparently doesn't have the same support from his dad that his rival does, with Eubank Sr telling the Daily Mail that he plans to pull his son out of the fight. The boxer has since insisted he turned down his father's advice, and the bout will go ahead.
