Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn both made weight for their highly anticipated rematch, which takes place at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday. The 36-year-old Eubank, who earned a thrilling points win over Benn in their first bout, weighed-in at 11st 5lb (72kg). His opponent, the 29-year-old Benn, also came in at 11st 5lb (72kg), having previously missed the welterweight limit by several pounds.
The pair's rehydration clause meant that neither fighter was allowed to weigh more than 12st 1lb (77kg) on Saturday morning. However, both men successfully navigated the weight limits, with Eubank reportedly weighing in at around 11st 4lb and Benn at 11st 3lb.
The rematch has been highly anticipated since their first bout in April, which saw Eubank emerge victorious via points decision. The fight is expected to be a closely contested and intense battle between the two men.
Meanwhile, Chris Eubank Sr recently denied allegations that he was paid to reunite with his son, Chris Eubank Jr, for their upcoming rematch.
