Eubank Jr. vs Benn: Caroline Dubois applauds stars for shouldering family legacies
Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn have done well to shoulder the expectations of their family name, with Caroline Dubois applauding their "competitive spirit" before their bout.
The two meet in a middleweight grudge clash tonight at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, headlining The Ring's Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves supercard on DAZN Pay-Per-View.
It marks the culmination of a fight originally touted as a legacy encounter between the sons of Chris Eubank Sr. and Nigel Benn, who fought twice over three decades ago.
Speaking exclusively to DAZN News, WBC lightweight champion Dubois - herself part of a rich family lineage - explained how the pair have shouldered expectations.
"There's always going to be pressure [from a family name]," she said. "Both guys are going to feel the pressure and both guys are not going to want to lose.
"That's their competitive spirit, and they have it. I don't know how those guys are dealing with it, but from what I've seen, they look like they're owning the stage.
"They're not letting their family name affect them, and that's what we need to see. It's been great. I haven't been involved [...] but I wish both fighters the best."
Dubois, who most recently defeated Bo Mi Re Shin at the Royal Albert Hall in March to move to a 11-0-1 professional record, also revealed her own dream headline locale.
"The dream for me, I feel like I'm going too low, but because I am from south-east London, I would love to fight at The O2 Arena," she added. "I would love to headline there.
Fighting in America is another massive dream and one I would like to make happen. I'm world champion, looking at unifications, looking for undisputed.
"That's going to happen. I will be undisputed."
