CHRIS EUBANK JNR is leaving no stone unturned in his bid to become a world champion like his dad.
Young Eubank, who has won his first three professional fights, says the pebbles shifting underfoot make it feel as if he has run double the distance.
He said: “It is a serious endurance test. Normally on grass or concrete you can push off but when you run on the beach your feet sink down into the pebbles.
“When you finish that type of run, you know you have been doing it, especially in the first few weeks when you feel you can barely walk afterwards.”
The gruelling runs are paying off for the 22-year-old who is mixing it with sprint sessions on the track but he shuns weight training:
He added: “I’ve never done weights. With my body type it is not for me and I’ve never felt that it transfers well to boxing. I think it can make you more sluggish.
“Building muscle in your arms is unnecessary and I just think ‘Why are you doing that? I prefer to focus on technique, sparring and shadow boxing.
“The sprinting helps with explosive movement and power in the ring. In the ring you can be calm and collected at one point and then when you spot the opening you have to immediately go up two or three gears and jump on the opponent. Sprinting emulates that.”
