Billy Joe Saunders has taken aim at his old rival Chris Eubank Jr after he wore a heavy looking leather jacket to his press conference with Conor Benn on Friday.

The pair came face-to-face for the first time ahead of their fight on October 8 which will reignite the old family rivalry between their fathers Chris Eubank Sr and Nigel Benn.

Due to the current UK heatwave that saw temperatures in London hit 31 Celsius on the day of the presser, Benn attended wearing just a vest top.

Eubank Jr meanwhile wore a big Louis Vuitton leather jacket.

His former foe Saunders took the opportunity to rip into him as a result.

BJS posted an Instagram story with a video of Eubank Jr wearing his jacket at the event and captioned it: “It’s 40 degrees you clown and you’re walking around in a leather jacket, backward c***.”

The pair fought all the way back in 2014 with the European, British and Commonwealth middleweight titles on the line.

Saunders won a close split decision, though the bad blood between them did not end there.
