And fists were almost flying early as Eubank smashed an EGG into Benn’s face – a reference to his failed drug test three years ago. 

It sparked a mass brawl on stage with Benn, promoter Eddie Hearn and his dad Nigel grappling to get a piece of Eubank. 

Eventually, the teams were dragged off stage with the bad blood brewing ahead of the 160lb middleweight fight on April 26. 

Eubank made reference to Benn’s failed drug tests which KO’d their initial 157lb catchweight clash in 2022. 

The WBC infamously suggested Benn’s failed test for clomiphene could have been related to an intake in eggs.
