Benn and Eubank Jr are set to meet at the Premier League ground on April 26 in a fight which has thrusted itself into the British public psyche following an eventful press conference in Manchester on Tuesday. 

After a heated war of words, Eubank Jr and Benn went face-to-face which Eubank Jr used as an opportunity to slap Benn in the face with an egg . 

This incident has added an extra layer of intensity to what is already a simmering rivalry and Benn has arrived at the venue in a video posted by Matchroom Boxing wearing a special suit for the occasion. 

In the video, Benn reveals two pictures on the inside of his jacket, both of these being the iconic poster for the first fight between Nigel Benn, Conor's father, and Chris Eubank Snr in 1990 . 

This fight took place at Birmingham's NEC Arena in November 1990 in a clash which has gone down as one of the biggest in British boxing history.

What transpired that night was a brutal affair with both men taking significant punishment, but it was Eubank Snr who won with a stoppage in round nine. 

A rematch took place three years later at Old Trafford which after 12 rounds was declared a split draw, and now the two sons are set to reignite what is one of British boxing's greatest rivalries.
