Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn almost came to blows following the egg slap incident as unseen footage has emerged.

Tuesday's pre-fight press conference descended into chaos as Eubank Jr. splattered an egg in Benn's face during their face-off.

Eubank Jr.'s stunt led to a media event being cancelled amid security concerns.

Ahead of the second-leg of their media tour, Matchroom Boxing have uploaded a video of Eubank Jr. and Benn clashing.

Footage shows Benn in a lift before stopping at a floor, where Eubank Jr. is waiting.

The British fighters exchanged words before Benn left the scene of the incident.

A security personnel can be heard saying: "No, no, not... it's not this one."

Benn told Eubank Jr.: "You look stupid in that outfit."

Eubank Jr. replied: "Let's jump in."

Benn fired back: "Oh shut up, Chris. Talking sh*t. Shut up... talking sh*t. You won't make it out."




Eubank Jr. and Benn will renew hostilities tonight in the second pre-fight press conference ahead of their April 26 showdown.

Speaking after the egg incident, promoter Eddie Hearn claimed anything now goes following Eubank Jr.'s blow.

"He came on stage with an egg. I thought it was glass. The noise and the way it shattered was like a glass. We don’t know what’s happened. All I’m saying now, all bets are off. If you bump into Nigel Benn in the next 10 minutes, watch yourself," he said.

"The thing is with Eubank is that everything is pre-mediated. He’s sat there at night and thought 'I’m going to hit him round the face with an egg'. Some might find it funny. Imagine you in a head to head right now, the police would be looking for you.

"The game is the game, the fight is the fight. All bets are off. Anything goes. You’ve gone to that level. Thursday at Spurs. It’s on sight."
