Harlem Eubank vs. Timo Schwarzkopf
Final Press Conference
Harlem Eubank and Timo Schwarzkopf shared an intense
face-off at today's pre-fight press conference in Brighton,
ahead of their clash live on Channel 5 on Friday night.
Eubank and Schwarzkopf headline 'Bloodline', the latest
big-punching Wasserman Boxing event, delivered in
association with Ladbrokes, Numan and Infinitum
Entertainment.
The unbeaten Harlem becomes the first member of the famous
Eubank fighting family to headline in their home city, since
Chris Eubank Senior defended his world title in the 1990s.
Eubank knows a victory in front of his home fans will
catapult his career towards big fights but the experienced
Schwarzkopf has flown over from Germany, intent on causing
an upset.
Harlem Eubank said: "I feel great, I feel ready to put
on a statement performance.
"I am ready to to go out and put on a display we've been
preparing for. This is the homecoming I have wanted for a
long time and one I have worked hard for.
"I am going to bring it back home for my people."
Timo Schwarzkopf said: "He's a good fighter, but we will
see if he is a real warrior like Chris Eubank Senior was.
"I am a warrior like Senior but is the younger Eubank as
strong? I will test him to the head and test him to the
body."
Nisse Sauerland said: "This is Harlem's coming out party
on a massive night.
"Brighton hasn't had a boxing event like this in a long
time. Tickets have sold unbelievably well and we are
expecting a great night."
Chris Eubank Senior said: "I am excited and I am
fascinated by Harlem's boxing ability. I am switched on when
I see someone with his ability and his ability is
phenomenal.
"Harlem is a beautiful, sweet boxer but if he is back into a
corner, you are in trouble."
