Who is Harlem Eubank?

Harlem Eubank was born in Brighton on February 23, 1993.

He competes in the super lightweight division and comes from a famous boxing family.

Harlem was a Seagulls academy prospect and a karate world champion, who avoided boxing for the first 18 years of his life because of the burden that comes with following in famous footsteps.

But now the deep-thinking fighter - who sadly lost father Simon in September 2023 after a devastating battle with dementia - concedes it was probably a pre-written path for him.

What has been said about Harlem Eubank?

Chris Eubank Jr had said of his cousin: "We are very close and he's a new addition to Team Eubank and I wish him the very best. He trains hard and I know he will put on a show.

"Harlem is a very slick fighter, good foot movement, good speed, one of those all-round fighters - he's good at everything.

"His only weakness is his inexperience but he will learn and it will get better of course.

"He's very exciting to watch. His first pro fight he got a first-round knockout, so he's a chip off the old block.

"He is definitely someone I would recommend watching."
