Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr. were seen face-to-face again ahead of Thursday's latest media event in London after the pair were spotted in a fiery exchange at an elevator.

The pair had to be pulled apart by security after the former was slapped with an egg by the latter at a Manchester press conference on Tuesday as tensions flared between them.

Now, before their bout at The Ring's Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 26, live on DAZN , footage has surfaced of another encounter.

In a video posted to social media by Matchroom Boxing , which represents Benn, the fighter and his father Nigel can be seen in an elevator surrounded by security waiting to exit.

When the doors open, Eubank Jr. and his entourage and seen outside, waiting for their own ride, sparking an exchange between the pair as their teams move to keep them apart.

"You look stupid in that outfit," Benn tells his rival, who replies with a tongue-in-cheek invitation to join him in the elevator, replying to his fellow Briton with a grin: "Let's jump in."

"Oh, shut up, Chris," comes the response as the doors close between the pair before anything else can happen. "Talking s—t. Shut up, talking s—t. You won't make it out!"

It is unclear whether the footage was taken during Tuesday's event at Manchester Central Convention Complex , with both men wearing similar outfits to the day.

A face-off between the two due for Wednesday was pulled in the wake of their altercation the evening before, which sparked a fracas between both camps.
