Next Gen caused a wild fracas on Tuesday after slapping his hated rival around the face with an EGG.
The pair faced-off after a heated war of words between Eubank and Benn’s promoter Eddie Hearn.
Eubank claimed the stunt was a reference to Benn’s failed drugs test from 2022.
The WBC infamously suggested Benn’s failed test for clomiphene could have been related to eating eggs.
A smiling Eubank was met by security as he prepared to walk onto the stage on Thursday.
The bouncer then whipped out a paddle labelled “egg detector” and proceeded to frisk the 35-year-old down.
One fan laughed on X: “Where can I get an egg detector? Asking for a friend.”
Another said: “This s*** got me crying they milking the egg thing and I love it.”

While a third joked: “They didn’t do a proper search. He needs to take off that jacket.”
The feuding pair had originally been due to fight in October 2022.
But the bout was cancelled after Benn failed two drug tests.
Both fighters again engaged in a face-off during Tuesday’s tense presser.
This time, a host of security was on hand to make sure there was a large distance between them.
Benn’s dad Nigel had been caught up in Tuesday’s fracas, appearing to try and grab Eubank by the throat.
While Hearn was seen shoving fellow promoter Ben Shalom in the crazy scenes.
Prior to the night of chaos, Hearn had accused Eubank of being “on the beach” and lacking preparation.
The Matchroom boss said: “I think Chris Eubank’s on the beach at the minute.
“He hits pads for about 30 seconds and then puts it out on Instagram.
“In my opinion, Conor Benn is on another level to Chris Eubank Jr.
“But in stepping up two divisions, physically he’s at a huge disadvantage.”
