Chris Eubank Jr has said his £100,000 ($130,000) fine for slapping Conor Benn with an egg was "worth every penny."
On Tuesday, the British Boxing Board of Control confirmed Eubank Jr would be fined for the incident after being found "in breach of Regulation 25 [misconduct] for his conduct at the press conference in Manchester."
The fighters had gone face-to-face as part of the promotion of their scheduled April 26 middleweight bout at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The 35-year-old Eubank then reached into a pocket, pulled out an egg and smacked the right side of Benn's face. Security guards rushed in to keep the pair separated.
In a post on Instagram on Wednesday, Eubank Jr simply said: "Worth every penny."
Eubank Jr and Benn were supposed to fight in October 2022, before Benn tested positive for a banned substance.
The WBC later said that Benn's "highly elevated consumption of eggs" was a reasonable explanation for failed tests.
