The British Boxing Association stated that Chris Eubank JR had broken the rule of inappropriate behavior.
British boxer Chris Eubank Jr. has received a fine of $ 120,000 after hitting an egg with their rivals Conor Bennin face.
The incident happened at a news conference in Manchester two weeks ago when boxers met face -to -face at a press conference for their planned Central Series match.
The match is scheduled for 26 April at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
35-year-old Eubank dug an egg from his pocket and hit it on Benn’s right cheek. The guards rushed to distinguish the duo.
Bennin and Eubank were originally supposed to be held at the O2 Arena of London in October 2022, but the match was canceled when Benn’s voluntary urine test was found with a clomipheen fruit drug. It is a forbidden substance that raises testosterone levels while burning fat.
28-year-old Benn later said successfully that his egg consumption increased his testosterone levels.
The WBC Federation released Benn from deliberate doping in February 2023 and stated that the consumption of the boxer eggs was a “reasonable explanation” for a failed test.
