Brandon Glanton has been slammed for his shocking threat to Chris Billam-Smith during the final pre-fight conference for Chris Eubank Jr. vs Conor Benn.

Before Eubank Jr. vs Benn settle their rivalry, a full undercard is in store at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.

Anthony Yarde faces Lyndon Arthur, Viddal Riley meets Cheavon Clarke and Liam Smith takes on Aaron McKenna.

Not to mention Billam-Smith vs. Glanton.

And the clash between the two cruiserweights intensified following Glanton's shameful comments.

The American called his opponent a 'b**ch' and vowed to give him brain damage.

"I stuck my hand out, he walked straight past me. It's disrespectful," he said, referencing a moment in 2023.

"I said in interviews, we're men before we're fighters, right? And he's a father before he's a fighter so your son has a b**ch as a father."

Glanton added: "I don't care about these cameras, these lights, I'm going to f**k you up. That's why I'm here. It's not a show everyone knows, I'm going to give you brain damage."

Billam-Smith, who returns to action for the first time since losing the WBO world cruiserweight title, refused to engage in a war of words, replying: "I'll leave my talking to Saturday."

Glanton's comments angered boxing fans and critics alike as they urged authorities to take action.

One wrote: "Brandon Glanton should be reprimanded for his comments on Chris Billam-Smith. Absolutely no need for that sort of language."

A second said: "Brandon Glanton is a clown. Scummy thing to say in an already dangerous sport. Why’s he going in that much on CBS? One of the nicest guys in boxing."

A third added: "Brandon Glanton saying he’ll give CBS brain damage and going after his son is a really rubbish move. Not a fan of that."

The Bournemouth man beat the likes of Isaac Chamberlain, Lawrence Okolie and Richard Riakporhe before surrendering his belt to WBA champion Gilberto Ramírez.

Glanton, on the other hand, has a record of 20-2 and hasn't fought since his victory over Aleksei Egorov last June.
