A father and son joining forces, rigorous last-minute training and a surprise appearance from rap royalty - these are the exclusive behind the scenes moments from inside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium prior to Chris Eubank Jr's defeat by Conor Benn.
Saturday night's blockbuster rematch between the sons of two of British boxing's fiercest foes failed to spark into life in the same way that captivated the nation back in April - with Eubank Jr taking victory in that bruising bust up.
This time around saw a far more comprehensive outcome, with Benn - son of Nigel - taking home a dominant victory in north London.
Daily Mail Sport photographer Kevin Quigley was on the ground capturing every moment prior to the ringwalks, with tell-tale signs indicating that Eubank Jr was bearing plenty of nerves in the build up.
