# Boxing: Chris Eubank Jr has been fined almost 2.4-million-rand after hitting fellow British boxer Conor Benn in the face with an egg during a heated exchange in the build-up to next month’s grudge match. Eubank made a reference at last month’s Manchester press conference to two drugs tests Benn failed in 2022. The World Boxing Council cleared Benn of a doping offence after it ruled a highly elevated consumption of eggs constituted a “reasonable explanation” for his positive test. Eubank pulled an egg from his pocket and smashed it against Benn’s face.
