‘No one asked you about your sex drive’ – Conor Benn ridicules Chris Eubank Jr for bringing up love life during face-off
CHRIS EUBANK JR bizarrely brought up his SEX DRIVE during a sit down talk with upcoming opponent Conor Benn.
The pair are set to meet inside the ring on October 8 at the O2 Arena in a catchweight bout – 29 years after their fathers’ legendary second fight.
As part of DAZN Boxing‘s build-up to the next generation bout, the two sat down for a chat for The Face Off.
Eubank Jr, 32, tweeted out a small clip from the special, where he discussed how long he will be abstaining from physical activities.
He said: “Usually I go eight weeks without sex. I abstain for eight weeks.”
To which a baffled Benn, 25, stated: “How has it come to this? What are you talking about?”

Eubank Jr hit back: “I’m going to abstain for two weeks for you.”
Benn responded: “I don’t really care. No-one asked you about your sex drive and what gets you going mate.”
Reeling off a number of fighters, Eubank Jr continued: “Canelo [Alvarez], [Gennady] Golovkin, they get eight weeks. [Billy Joe] Saunders gets four weeks. Conor Benn gets two.”
Eubank Jr then brought YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul into the conversation, with the Brighton native calling the Problem Child out for a scrap in July.

He remarked: “Jake Paul will get one week. So you’re not at the bottom of the barrel, but you’re close.”
A speechless Benn then told his rival: “You don’t half talk some s*** don’t ya?”
Eubank simply replied: “I’m a bad boy.”
The former world title challenger promised to take Benn “to school” last month as he threatened to “teach him” a lesson.
He said: “I will be his fatherly figure in the build-up and at the fight.
“I will take him to school, walk him through the doors, sit him down and teach him everything he needs to learn.

“My advice is ‘get sparring partners who are going to really hurt you for the next eight weeks’, that’s his best shot at beating me.
“The pain I will put him through needs to be matched in sparring or it will be too much of a shock to his system.”
