Canelo Alvarez told a annoying, pointing with the fingers The interviewer with Dazn today believes that Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn Egging was a guided movement that was not as “authentic” as his altercation with the Caleb plant in the confrontation at his launch press conference on September 21, 2021.
Eubank Jr. (34-3, 25 kos) had already planned his strategic egg of Benn, hiding his charge in his coat and taking advantage of his proximity to Conor during his confrontation on February 25 to hit him.
‘Not authentic’
“They already knew what was going to happen. Here is authentic,” Canelo Álvarez said Dazn boxingComparing what he believes was a movement with a script by Chris Eubank Jr. to hit Conor Benn in the face with an egg to his altercation with the Caleb plant during his confrontation in 2021.
Canelo’s altercation with former FIB medium weight champion, Caleb ‘Sweethands’, came at his starting press conference because, according to him, he was angry that he was called a “mother-mm”. However, some boxing fans believe that the true reason why Canelo pushed Plant was because he called him a “cheater” during his time on the podium, referring to Alvarez tested positive for a PED prohibited in the past.
Compared to the obvious planned of Eubank Jr, the altercation of Canelo with the plant was more authentic and not premeditated. He was angry with Plant, and when he approached him during his confrontation, he took advantage of the situation to push him.
Plant then went after Canelo, throwing a slap on the left. Canelo retaliates with a left-right combination that knocked Caleb’s sunglasses, cutting his face into the process. The altercation created a lot of hum and made fans interested in buying the event in PPV.
Eubank Jr. chose the wrong moment to hit Benn with an egg, because it would have been better if he had waited until the final press conference or weighing this week to hit him to create the biggest noise.
