Nigel Benn with his sons Harley and Conor
Wilson - who is now close with Eubank Jr and his cousin Harlem - has a professional boxing record of eight wins, two losses and one draw.
Meanwhile Harley was born just days apart from his brother Conor and also had a rocky relationship with his dad Nigel.
And Harley revealed he recently lost touch with brother Conor and his iconic former world champion father.
Conor, 28, was beaten in April by Eubank Jr, 35, in their second generation grudge match at Tottenham.

But the family feud - started by Eubank Sr's 1990 win over Nigel and draw three years later - could be extended further.
Wilson, 36, took to Instagram to call out Harley with the message: "UNFINISHED BUSINESS!! The EUBANK BENN saga continues."
Harley, 28, responded: "Okay you're serious let's get it cracking."
Wilson has not fought since 2020 when he was stopped in three rounds by Stu Greener.

Harley on the other hand 9-2 and currently signed to Misfits Boxing - the home of celebrity-style crossover bouts.
He was due to face 15-3 Joe Laws on KSI's undercard in March - but the Misfits co-founder pulled out through injury.
Harley was in talks to fight Wilson in 2022 - when Eubank Jr was first due to face Benn.
But Benn was pulled out after failing a drug test - until his doping case was later dropped.
A rematch with Eubank Jr is already pencilled in with September 27 at Tottenham targeted.

Scotland boss Steve Clarke says he's ‘suited to getting all the stick' and not being loved ‘doesn't bother him'
Clarke also opened up on replacing a major departure in his Scotland set-up STE ABOUT THAT Scotland boss Steve Clarke says he's 'suited to getting all the stick' and not being loved 'doesn't bother him' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) STEVE CLARKE isn't feeling much love from the Tartan Army these days. But the Scotland boss insists he has never been the type to bother too much about popularity contests. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Steve Clarke says he doesn't mind getting stick from supporters Credit: Kenny Ramsay 4 Clarke's Scotland side went down 3-1 to Iceland at Hampden on Friday Credit: Reuters 4 The boss says he's grateful for the chance to put things right against Liechtenstein Credit: PA Gaffer Steve Clarke has spent the weekend poring over the 3-1 defeat to Iceland that saw Scotland make it ten home friendlies without a win. With the vital World Cup qualifiers looming in September, punters are fast losing faith that the national team have any chance of reaching the finals. Clarke admits his side are 'fortunate' to have the chance to rectify Friday's performance so quickly when they face Liechtenstein tomorrow night. But he is willing to take the flak and has full faith Scotland can put things right before the competitive action finally kicks off again. Clarke said: 'As fast as the game goes, you have to recover. Football's never smooth. 'We're fortunate we have a game to put things right. 'I try to be very measured in my approach to football and I try to be very measured in my approach to life. 'I've done alright. I'm over 60 now. I'm still involved in the game. 'So I must have a fair idea of how to deal with the disappointments and how to deal with the highs as well because football, and especially club football, can be week to week — one minute up then one minute down. 'It's a little bit like that in international football but it's more spread out and you have to learn how to deal with it. Scotland fans need to STOP booing Steve Clarke and his players says Kris Boyd 'I think my character is quite suited to being the guy that gets all the stick. 'Everybody likes to be loved, but I'm very good at not going on social media. 'You get a general feel for what's happening in the world of football, but that doesn't bother me too much.' Clarke will end the season by saying goodbye to trusted No 2 John Carver over in Liechtenstein. The friendly in Vaduz is set to be 60-year-old Carver's last in the Scotland coaching set-up after five years alongside Clarke. The Geordie has pledged his future to Polish side Lechia Gdansk, who he's just saved from relegation in Poland's top league — a feat that saw him nominated for the Ekstraklasa Coach of the Season Award. Clarke was reluctant to go into detail about it — but says he has 'lots' of candidates as a potential replacement to work alongside Alan Irvine and goalie coach Chris Woods. Clarke said: 'It will possibly be John's last game with us. We'll decide. 'Me and John will have a good chat after the game and we'll decide what happens going forward. 'If he were to leave us I have lots of people in mind to come in. 4 John Carver is set to leave his role as Clarke's no.2 Credit: Kenny Ramsay 'I'd rather not talk about it now because we just want to concentrate on the game we have in Liechtenstein. We'll talk about it after that.' The sloppiness of the goals Scotland are losing are a concern — but he exonerated rookie keeper Cieran Slicker from blame for the Iceland opener. He admitted: 'I think we could have defended set plays a little bit better. 'We've been fantastic with set-plays but if you look at the goals we conceded on Friday they didn't do what we've been doing over the last four or five years — since Austin MacPhee came in and set us a way of defending set plays. 'The first one comes from a clearance on Cieran's weaker foot that doesn't quite clear the boy in midfield. 'When the ball comes back, we allow the striker to turn and shoot, and nobody was saving that shot because it was a great finish. That's just the way it is. 'The second goal was a ball into the box that we simply didn't deal with inside the six-yard box. 'If you say that Scotland will touch the ball four or five times without any Iceland players touching the ball and it ends up in the back of the net, that has to be a disappointment. 'And at the third goal, the line didn't drop properly and it didn't drop cohesively. 'Those are things that we've always worked on and normally we're very good at, so that was disappointing. 'We've been fantastic at defending set plays for a number of years. They're just 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 per cent down on their concentration, on their application of what we ask them to do. 'And when that happens it shows you can be punished. Scott McTominay's career Born in Lancaster on December 8, 1996 Joined the Manchester United youth system aged five and signed his first professional contract in 2013 Made his Premier League debut against Arsenal in May 2017 McTominay went on to win Carabao Cup and FA Cup with Man Utd Made 255 appearances and scored 29 goals for the Red Devils McTominay joined Napoli in August for £25.7million Born in England, he qualified for Scotland through his dad who's from Helensburgh McTominay was called-up by Scotland in March 2018 and has gone on to become a huge Hampden favourite He was part of the squad at Euro 2020 and Euro 2024 He won his 50th cap while playing against Germany at Euro 2024 McTominay has scored some huge goals for Scotland, including an injury-time winner against Israel and his famous double in the 2-0 win over Spain in Glasgow 'It's very difficult for me to tell because I can't get inside their heads. 'Obviously we've touched on what happened with Cieran. 'Listen, everybody makes a big thing about Cieran. But if you play a young goalkeeper, there's a chance he'll make mistakes. 'I've already touched on the fact that defensively we should have dealt with the two set plays much better than we did. 'Cieran's a good goalkeeper. He trains well, he works well in the camp when he's in. He's just had an unfortunate night. 'He'll bounce back from it, and he'll do well at his club. 'He needs to play more regular games and he obviously knows that. But he's got a big future in front of him.' Scott McTominay and Kieran Tierney weren't on the SFA charter which eventually touched down at Friedrichshafen Airport in Germany last night, an hour north of Vaduz. The travelling party's departure from Scotland was delayed by the late arrival of their aircraft. Clarke said: 'Scott and Kieran both came into this camp carrying some little issues from the season. 'I think if we'd had a longer turnaround between the Iceland and Liechtenstein games they might have had a chance, but this is the end of season for those two. 'The most important thing is to have a good rest over the summer and come back flying in the autumn.' Now Ipswich frontman George Hirst could get another run-out tonight. Clarke added: 'He caught my eye. He had a chance with a header that was probably just too high for him. 'He had a good shot that the goalkeeper made a fantastic save from in the first half. 'He had a good header that the goalkeeper made a fantastic save from in the second half. 'He was on the spot for the tap-in off the goalkeeper was just offside. 'Then Lennon Miller was another who went on and did OK as well.' Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page

‘I wish I had those problems' – Steve Clarke's Scotland goalkeeper crisis laughed off by Liechtenstein boss
He insisted that Scotland are still massive favourites against his 205th-ranked minnows KEEP IT UP KEEP IT UP 'I wish I had those problems' – Steve Clarke's Scotland goalkeeper crisis laughed off by Liechtenstein boss Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LIECHTENSTEIN boss Konrad Funfstuck laughed off suggestions Scotland have a goalkeeper crisis and said: 'I wish I had those kinds of problems!' Scotland face the tiny Alpine nation — ranked 205th in the world — in a friendly in Vaduz tomorrow night. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Liechtenstein boss Konrad Funfstuck laughed off Scotland's injury crisis in goal Credit: PA 3 Angus Gunn went off after just six minutes in Friday's defeat to Iceland Credit: PA 3 Robby McCrorie was injured in the warmup and joins Craig Gordon, Liam Kelly, Zander Clark and Gunn on the sidelines Credit: Ger Harley/Sportpix/Sipa USA Steve Clarke's squad in disarray after injuries to Craig Gordon, Liam Kelly, Zander Clark, Angus Gunn and Robby McCrorie. That means Celtic-bound Ross Doohan is likely to come straight in for his debut. But Funfstuck said: 'I'd love to have the problems the Scottish coach has! 'Scotland have a good goalkeeping tradition and they will have good goalkeepers in their younger years who will have big careers. 'They have very good players, a good structure and a good coach. 'We have to focus on ourselves and try to develop our football, with clear principles and ideas. That's our goal. 'Travelling back from our match in Wales we saw some of the Scottish supporters who were already on the way to Liechtenstein. 'British football, and Scottish football in particular, is special. It has undergone a huge development in the league and the national team. 'The national team has created a buzz and we have great respect for the Scottish team. 'They are extremely good and individually strong and we're looking forward to meeting them. Scotland fans need to STOP booing Steve Clarke and his players says Kris Boyd 'We know the clear positioning of our side and Scotland — we are clear outsiders, the absolute underdog. 'But we showed against Wales on Friday night that it's not easy to play against us. 'We made it difficult for them and we want to try to show the same energy and power against Scotland.' Clarke's side are aiming to bounce back after the 3-1 loss to Iceland on Friday and Funfstuck — whose side went down 3-0 in Cardiff — added: 'I would have preferred that Scotland had won against Iceland, I'm honest about that. 'But Iceland have a good team with a good individual quality — Scotland against Iceland is an open match. 'It doesn't change the fact that Scotland are a very good team. 'They will have a lot of fans here and they will really want to present a spectacle for them.' The majority of Liechtenstein's players are part-timers who play in the Swiss and Austrian third and fourth tiers. Midfielder Simon Luchinger, who's just signed for Austrian Second Division side Schwarz-Weiss Bregenz, admits he'll have his own Scottish backing tonight. The 22-year-old — who'll win his 30th cap — said: 'When I was at St Francis University in Pittsburgh in the USA. I played alongside a Scottish player called Patrick Heron. 'I haven't seen him for more than three years but he is coming to the match in Vaduz so it will be great to see him. 'I love the intensity and passion of British football. We have a little more anticipation than usual about this match. 'It was a highlight for me to play in Wales and playing Scotland at home will be another positive.'
