Bouhoohuf?
Eubank Jr. (34-3, 25 Kos) has been considered a villain by many fans throughout his career, and he admits he is booed and thriving in his fight. For him, he feels at home while he is listening to the boo. If he cheers on this fight, it won’t be much different.
He joins cruise control and looks for an outbox and punch for less experienced Ben. Eubank Jr. believes that the superiority of his experience gives him an superiority. He talked about how he just needs to be “60%” capacity To defeat Ben, a beginner, and he is probably right.
“I’ve been booed to every arena I’ve been to since 2014, so I’m hoping for the same treatment here,” said Chris Eubank Jr. Ring Magazine When asked if the crowd would expect to face Connor Ben at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Saturday. “Booing, toast, it doesn’t change the outcome of what happens.”
It’s good that Eubank Jr. hasn’t lended a bank to fans on his side this Saturday, but in this case they probably will. Ben hurt his popularity due to the positive tests of the PED in 2022 and the way he fought stubbornly. Boxing fans would have respected Connor in advance and would have respected him if he admitted that he made a mistake by choosing to use a drug that would improve his performance.
Limiting fluids
“I’m very comfortable at home, I’m in peace and get caught up in these fights,” Eubank Jr. said of whether fans want to be by his side. “It actually warms my heart right now. It prepares me. I don’t know how I respond to people who cheer and smile when I leave, I don’t know what it is.
“The actual weight cut comes 24 hours before the measurement. So, I’m not feeling that now, but a few days later, I feel like another guy,” Eubank Jr. said of the weight cut before the measurement on Friday.
It will be interesting to see how the 10-pound rehydration clause affects Eubank Jr., as the 10-pound rehydration clause must be restricted after measuring Friday to ensure a 170-pound limit.
