Chris Eubank Jr hints at scary health issue preventing comeback

Chris Eubank Jr has opened up about the worrying health problems that he had previously hinted at.

“I’ve been dealing with a lot of health issues over the last year,” he posted to social media.

Referring to his lacklustre defeat to Conor Benn, he said: “It all finally caught up to me last month.

“I will not box again until I’m back to 100% and I don’t know when that will be.

“But one things for certain… for the fans that have supported me through thick and thin, I will do everything in my power to make sure that one day, the old me makes a big comeback.”

Eubank Jr. stopped short of naming any medical condition, or details, around his health problems.

He had spoken cryptically about the issues in the build-up to his rematch with Benn.
