Chris Eubank Snr has once again spoken of his concerns for his son’s health.

In the last two weeks, Chris Eubank Jnr posted that he was a promotional free agent and ready to fight again after his two bouts with Conor Benn in 2025.

Eubank Jnr won the first battle, a tremendous Fight of the Year in April, but, seven months later, was well off the pace before losing a wide and one-sided decision in the return.

Now 35-4 (25 KOs), Eubank Jnr is 36 and has recently been looking to expand his property portfolio in Dubai and he’s become a father to twins.

But Eubank Snr is not keen to see his son fight again. He said he had not been paid to attend his son’s fights with Benn and, beforehand, had spoken of his son’s issues trying to make the agreed 160lbs limit for both fights.

“The fight was wrong. The fight was all wrong. Junior’s shot,” Eubank Snr told Betway’s Playbook Boxing.

“I made the decision wholeheartedly myself, and who lives within – it’s I and I… Things shouldn’t be this way. No, I didn’t take a penny. I didn’t get paid. But here’s the thing – I’m supposed to. And what they don’t know is this: When you don’t pay me, you take away your own money. I know the spirit world. Junior is a businessman. Junior said to me, if it doesn’t make money, it doesn’t make sense. Junior is not me. I said, ‘Don’t take the second fight, you can’t take it. Now you can walk off and you will never want for anything.’ He gave it up. He gave up kingship.”

Eubank Snr said the experience of seeing his son in hospital as he recovered after the fight was “traumatizing.” 

“When you have a son, you love him. I may not like some of his ways, but I love him,” said Snr.

Then, speaking of his son and continuing his career, Snr added: “He’s shot. He’s spent.

"The boxing authorities, the boxing experts, everyone can see it, but no one’s paying attention to it. And I’m not going to be a party to that. I’ve got to stay alone. I’ve got to stay the lone ranger, for the rules. Only when the rules come back can we then produce a calibre of fighter that can excite us. I’m not talking about one or two, when we used to produce 15, 20, when we had the Fantastic Four, we had the eras of boxing.

“I have given my life to this. I only can wish Junior luck and mercy. It’s a very tricky world and it hasn't changed, yet. There’s a change coming.”

Asked about his ongoing concerns for his son, Snr said: “Of course.”

Eubank Snr was then asked about Zuffa Boxing’s arrival, along with loyalty in boxing.

“If a fighter loses twice, and he’s cut, or if you didn’t make the mark, you become fodder,” he said. “My brother Simon died of frontal lobe dementia, 20 losses, seven wins. This is what happens. Boxing kills you.

“These guys, they don’t care about that. They’re only looking at the money. So everything that I am going to continue to do in accordance to my plan. I have faith.”
