Grudge Match Overshadowed by Weight Controversy

In the latest twist ahead of Saturday’s highly anticipated bout, Chris Eubank Jr has been fined £375,000 after failing to make weight for his fight against Conor Benn. The 35-year-old came in just 0.05lb over the agreed 11st 6lb limit, missing weight on two separate attempts during a private weigh-in at a London hotel on Friday morning.

Eubank Misses the Mark—Twice

On his first attempt, Eubank tipped the scales 0.2lb over the limit, and despite a rapid weight-loss effort involving intense sweating and physical strain, he only managed to shed 0.15lb, still leaving him 0.05lb too heavy. The weigh-in drama unfolded behind closed doors, though videos later posted by both fighters offered glimpses into the tension and physical toll involved.

Benn Comes in Lighter Than Expected

Conor Benn, who has traditionally fought at welterweight, surprised many by coming in significantly under the limit at 11st 2lb. Clearly in peak condition, Benn took to social media shortly after the weigh-in, posting a video with the caption, “Show me the money,” referencing the six-figure fine which will now be paid to him as per the fight contract.

Rehydration Clause Still in Play

Both fighters are also restricted by a strict rehydration clause, which limits them to a maximum of 12st 1lb on Saturday morning. This measure, designed to ensure fairness in post-weigh-in recovery, adds another layer of pressure on the fighters before the first bell rings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

High Stakes and High Earnings

Despite the fine, both Eubank and Benn are expected to earn seven-figure purses from the grudge match, which has captured public and media attention for months. The contest, fueled by family rivalry and contrasting fighting styles, is set to be one of the biggest boxing events of 2025 in the UK.

Behind Closed Doors but Not Hidden

Though the official weigh-in was private, fans will get a chance to see the fighters face off during a public ceremonial weigh-in scheduled for Friday evening in Islington. The event is expected to draw large crowds as hype continues to build.

Final Thoughts

The weight miss by Chris Eubank Jr adds fuel to an already intense showdown with Conor Benn. With money, pride, and legacy on the line, the drama outside the ring is only adding to the intrigue inside it. All eyes now turn to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where these two rivals will finally settle their score.
