Eddie Hearn Confirms He Will Be Suing Chris Eubank Jr<\/h2>\n

After comments made at Wednesday’s launch press conference in London, Eddie Hearn has confirmed he will be suing Chris Eubank Jr.<\/p>\n

Eubank Jr came face-to-face with arch nemesis Conor Benn for the first time since their classic showdown on April 26 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which resulted in a unanimous decision victory for ‘Next Gen’.<\/p>\n

The Eubank Jr vs Benn rematch is set for Saturday, November 15, once again at Spurs’ stadium. As the winner of the last fight and naturally bigger man, Eubank Jr will once again be favourite with boxing betting sites<\/a> to come out on top in their rematch.<\/p>\n

At Wednesday’s press conference for the rematch, it wasn’t Eubank and Benn going back and forth that made the headlines, but instead Eubank’s claims about Matchroom Boxing.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old made various accusations and claims about Matchroom and Eddie Hearn. Since then, Hearn has confirmed he will be suing Eubank Jr for his comments:<\/p>\n

“Chris Eubank Jr has just made the wildest accusations and the mask is slipping,”<\/em> said Hearn.<\/p>\n

“What he has accused us [Matchroom] of is unforgettable. When you are as serious about your company as we are and what it means to us, trust me, we’ll deal with that.<\/em><\/p>\n

“I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Me and my Dad haven’t worked our entire lives to achieve this reputation in the sport, for Chris to then make up lies about our company,”<\/em> Hearn concluded.<\/p>\n
