La conférence de presse des Britanniques Chris Eubank Jr et Conor Benn avant leur combat en novembre a été animée par les mots échangés entre le promoteur Eddie Hearn et Chris Eubank Jr.
00:00First, Jamey, je vais vous dire 30 secondes sur Ricky Hatton.
00:08Chris, Chris, une seconde.
00:10You know the drill.
00:11Chris, Chris.
00:12You are some arsehole, you are.
00:15Ok, then don't listen to any...
00:17I'm an arsehole, I'm a bad guy, I'm a this, I'm a bad guy.
00:19All I was going to do was say a few words about Ricky Hatton.
00:21Ok, ok, ok, ok, I won't say anything about...
00:24Move on with the press conference.
00:26You're an arsehole, you talk shit, you get what's coming to you.
00:29It doesn't matter, you can do that.
00:32We know the drill.
00:33Jamie?
00:33Let's move on.
00:34Ok.
00:35You know what, I want to talk about something else.
00:37Forget Eddie.
00:38I want to talk about the British Boxing Board of Control.
00:43And more specifically, a man by the name of Robert Smith.
00:51This is the big boss behind the scenes.
00:56The head honcho.
00:58The man with all the power.
00:59That controls everything that goes on in professional boxing inside of the United Kingdom.
01:06Jeez.
01:07This guy's a big deal.
01:08He really is.
01:10Now this idiot allowed a room full of media and cameramen into my private way in the day before the fight.
01:23Is this when you were sabotaged?
01:24The time that it took to get these people out contributed to me missing the weight.
01:30Chris, you turned up over an hour late.
01:31And getting fined 500k.
01:33You turned up over an hour late.
01:36He let Connor Benn fight in gloves filled with horse hair knowing it was a direct breach of the contract I had for this fight.
01:44On fight night, he personally escorted an arch nemesis of mine, Billy Joe Saunders, to my changing room.
01:55So boring.
01:56To disrupt and try and ruin my preparations for the biggest fight of my life.
02:03So, and then afterwards he gets into the ring and is trying to shake my hand and congratulate me.
02:10I mean, the ball's on this guy.
02:13It's viciously clear for me to see that this toad is nothing more than a puppet and a pawn.
02:23I think he is in the back pockets of Matron.
02:28Wow.
02:29Another one that's got it in for you.
02:30Absolutely.
02:31You are so unlucky with everything.
02:32So, unfortunately, just another scumbag in this...
02:36Oh, wow.
02:37You're calling the chairman of the British Boxing Board of Control a scumbag now.
02:41Underhand the industry we find ourselves in.
02:42The mask is slipping, Christopher.
02:44It's unfortunate.
02:45Okay.
02:46Now, continuing on from that, the board, the British Boxing Board of Control, they opened several investigations into some of the things I did in the lead up to the fight.
03:02No investigations, by the way, into why my ambulance was stopped from leaving the stadium for 20 minutes, but I guess trying to find out why I was talking about being in a sauna before the fight is much more important.
03:16Anyway, the board have graciously awarded me with a multitude of fines over the last six months.
03:27And my question is, where is this money going?
03:35You know, the Boxing Board of Control, they're supposed to be supporting the foundations and governing the community of boxing in Great Britain.
03:48So, in my eyes, the money that I've been fined should be going to the community, should be going to kids that can't afford equipment.
04:00It should be going to local gyms.
04:03The money should be going to fighters who have suffered injuries, medical bills.
04:08But as far as I can see it, that's not happening.
04:15The money simply seems to be lining the pockets of fat cats on the board, like Robert Smith.
04:22Don't worry.
04:23Don't worry, Ben.
04:23It's okay.
04:26And, you know, it's sad to see.
04:29So, I'm asking you guys, the media, to shine a light on this situation and find out where is all this money going.
