Floyd Mayweather blamed as Chris Eubank Sr accuses son of being "a greedy pig"

Chris Eubank Sr feels his son Chris Jr is acting like a "pig" with his flash lifestyle, blaming his interest in Floyd Mayweather as a key factor.

The pair's relationship has been fractured over the past few months, particularly when Eubank Jr accepted a big-money offer to face Conor Benn at a career-low catchweight of 157lb against his father's wishes. The bout didn't end up happening when Benn failed a drug test, but that hasn't stopped the legendary boxer from speaking out.

He feels his son's interest in following Mayweather's example and showing off his luxury cars and other extravagant purchases is not proper for a fighter. He would rather his son follow in the footsteps of past champions who showed more humility.
