, Eubank Jr speaks candidly about the pressure of being the son of British boxing legend Chris Eubank Sr.

“Now it’s not so much about living up to my dad’s aura and expectation. That used to worry me but now that’s just not part of who I am,” he said.

“Now it’s not just about how our dads fought. Now we have our own beef. We have our own story. We have our own history.”
