|April 26, 2025
CHRIS Eubank Jr missed the weight by 0.05lb on Friday and will be fined £375,000 ahead of his showdown with Conor Benn on Saturday.
-
Eubank Jr had two attempts at weighing in at 160lb, missing his first try by 0.2lb before falling short again.
He will be fined accordingly after agreeing to a clause in his fight contract with Matchroom's Benn.
A rehydration clause also states that Eubank Jr will be unable to weigh more than 10lb heavier on Saturday morning failure to abide by this will result in another fine.
The news comes after he was handed a £100,000 penalty in February for slapping Benn with an egg in their Manchester press conference.
Benn, 28, came in well under the limit at 156.4lb ahead of Friday evening's weigh-ins. ceremonial Meanwhile, Chris Eubank Jr has spoken about the "pain" he feels following his estrangement from his father and the death of his brother ahead of his fight with rival Conor Benn.
