    Both men aimed personal digs at one another as Sun columnist Morgan quizzed them on their heated rivalry, which will come to a head at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 26.

    After mediating one of the tensest sitdowns in the show’s history, Morgan asked the duo if they’d be open to a handshake.

    The 59-year-old asked: “You can’t even shake eachother’s hand?

    Benn, 28, quickly replied: “I could, I could.”

    Morgan replied to ‘The Destroyer’, “I know you’ve offered to” before asking Eubank Jr: “But you won’t do that?”

    “What would it achieve?” Eubank Jr asked as two security guards stood between himself and Benn. “After giving you views.”

    Morgan replied: “It doesn’t give me any views.”

    A fired-up Eubank Jr replied: “So why are you asking me then if I want to do it.”

    The pair clashed in Morgan’s studio over the aftermath of Eubank Jr slapping Benn with an egg – which was a reference to his rival’s explanation for his pair of failed drug tests ahead of their cancelled showdown in October 2022 – in the Manchester leg of their press tour last month.

    IBO middleweight king was grabbed by the neck by Benn’s dad – Nigel – following his brazen act, which saw him slapped with a £100,000 fine.

      Eubank Jr warned the Brit boxing legend’s old man against repeating his action at the second presser in London, which sparked a fiery response from Conor.

      And the pair clashed over the incident again during their sitdown, with security having to separate them.

      Benn blew a gasket after saying there’d be “consequences” for Nigel if he touched him again, asking: “Consequences to what?

      “If I slap you right now, what are you gonna do? Don’t talk about my dad.”

      After lunging at ‘Next Gen’, Benn raged: “You f****d up talking about my dad!

      “What the f**k are you looking at? Come on, we can have it outside, no problem. Yeah, yeah we can.

      “Think I’m mucking around? Threatening my dad. You think I’m playing games? “Don’t ever talk to my dad like that.”
