Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn rehydration clause: Weight rule explained as fighters risk huge fine
Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn will go toe-to-toe in the ring on Saturday night at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
It is a fight more than two years in the making, after the initial bout was called off during fight week in October 2022 when Benn failed two voluntary drugs tests.
Weight was a contentious issue when the British rivals were first scheduled to meet and it remains a key talking point this week, with a rehydration clause meaning Benn and Eubank will weigh in on both Friday and Saturday.
