I never expected Eubank to struggle making 160, his last 5 fights have been at the weight and he's always kept in shape and looked lean, the rehydration was always going to be the problem but I figured it was always Benn with the disadvantage having to jump up to a weight he has no business at but I'm starting to think Benn might pull a win off tomorrow night. Eubank looked like a zombie. Dry, gaunt in the face and very tired. See it as a 50/50 fight now rather than a Eubank win.
Imagine how bad this makes Benn look if he can't win against Eubank who's probably going to be at 20-30% of his capability. Just shows how utterly weak and fearful he is to put in all these stipulations. Never known anyone as allergic to a level playing field
Jr needs Sr in his corner now more than ever; whatever rehydration clause they have imposed on Eubank can go right back up Eddie's posterior, if Eddie wants to play a game of brinksmanship then let him do it, call their bluff. Benn is a disgraced drug cheat who has built up his name against featherfists; if this fight fails to materialise then there is nothing else out there for him. Eubank should rehydrate until he feels healthy, take whatever fines may come, and knock the rat Benn back into the hole he came from.
The loud man making a fuss about the cameras and gloves is the convicted fraudster and ex convict Mazher Majeed who in a News of The World video expose fixed and spot fixed pakistani cricket matches past and boasted of a future fix that came to pass and he ended up in prison for it
Clearly I hope it doesn't. But if something goes badly wrong in this fight, basically everyone connected to it deserves it. Could happen either way, CEJ is far to big from a Conor and hits him harder than he ever has been hit or CEJ is so dehydrated he has no business fighting. Either one could lead to a serious injury.
I’m kind of starting to think there will be a tragic end to this, with the fans baying for blood ala Spurs 91 and G-Man
I have to be honest and admit that I don't like the fight after seeing pictures of Eubank Jr. There are numerous examples of boxers who have been dehydrated leading up to fights and it has gone horribly wrong. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that nothing happens to either boxer.
If nothing goes wrong they can mark it down as a "we got away with it" Also got to throw in CB may have found a better way of juicing this time and hasn't popped hot.
yes he's a dodgy fraudster, he's also been caught giving large sums of money to Ben Shalom. He's heavily involved with Boxxer but usually it's in private. I think he's the one choosing Boxxers signings.
