Conor Benn was left raging after Chris Eubank Jr directly addressed his father, Nigel Benn, during a press conference at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Thursday.
Benn, 28, and Eubank Jr, 35, previously came to blows during a presser in Manchester on Tuesday, when the elder of the pair smashed an egg on the Londoner’s face.
As a result of the unsavoury scenes, a pre-fight face-off scheduled for Wednesday was cancelled due to ‘security concerns’.

However, on Thursday, the pair were both on the top table alongside promoters Eddie Hearn and Ben Shalom, as well as Conor’s father.
Nigel, 61, appeared to grab Eubank’s throat in the aftermath of the chaos which occurred on Tuesday.
“I understand the frustration and the heat that you were experiencing a couple of days ago after I egged Conor,” Eubank Jr said when directly speaking to the former two-weight world champion.
“But you did put your hand on my neck. I am going to give you a pass because of what happened, but I am just letting you know, if your hand ever touches me again, you won’t get it back.”
Nigel cut a relaxed figure and did not appear phased by Eubank’s comments however, his son, Conor, was not so calm.
