Eubank Jr and Benn make rehydration clause weight on fight day
Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn is set with the fighters making their rehydration weight.
After some adventure with Friday’s weigh-in, where Chris Eubank Jr was slightly overweight and had to pay a hefty fine, today’s rehydration clause weigh-in went off without a hitch.
Eubank Jr (34-3, 25 KO) and Benn (23-0, 14 KO) both made the fight day weight without issue, with Eubank coming in at 169.4 lbs and Benn at 165.
Both fighters had to be below 170 lbs today. Officially, it’s a middleweight fight, headlining a five-bout bill from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
The show also features a third fight between light heavyweights Anthony Yarde and Lyndon Arthur, plus Liam Smith vs Aaron McKenna, Cheavon Clarke vs Viddal Riley for the British cruiserweight title, and a heated cruiserweight matchup between former titleholder Chris Billam-Smith and American underdog Brandon Glanton, who has talked quite a game coming in.
Bad Left Hook will have live updates and results for the full show starting at Noon ET.
