    Benn is a bigger name now, but CEJ just got iced by Smith, also it being in Abu Dhabi will reduce the UK hype.

    Everything I’ve said for 10 years about this Eubank bum is vindicated the second he finds his pen and signs. With the drivel I’ve had to listen to from him and most others in that time I will gladly say I told you so.

    Will it be on PPV ? I hope Eubank wins by KO and I think he will. I wonder what Liam Smith will do now.

    I hope Benn has a career ending hand injury or something in camp.

    UAE site fee might allow it to be non ppv.

    It's a fight I've 0 interest in watching.

    Thanks for the information. Be honest though you'd definitely be interested in how the bout pans out.

    Hearn will be able to sell it well with Benn moving up two weight divisions and 13 lbs to fight Chris Eubank Jr at his natural weight.

    0 interest.

    Benn is clearly a drugs cheat and they and MR have handled this woefully.

    CEJ getting iced last time kills the narrative a bit

    I suppose Connor Henn can just 'egg' it up to weight again now that excuse worked like a charm. Lol

    Course it will....although Eddie and Kalle should make it non PPV to get the millions of fans who wouldv'e been interested in this back in October back somewhat onside with this idea.

    After eubank lost to Smith I really thought this fight was not going to happen.

    Can't blame eubank going with the money and really he should be beating Benn at 160lbs.

    I think Eubank loses though. His punch resistance seems to be gone now.

    Great if you want to see an emaciated Eubank KO’d.

    So it's official then, if Matchroom can make a few quid out of your Dad's name you can take all the PEDs you can get your hands on. This was a hard sell before Eubank showed his punch resistance has sunk to Amir Khan levels and Benn was exposed as a drug cheat. These people in the Middle East really do have more oil money than sense if they pay these two seven figures each for what is an absolute freak show.

    I'll be rooting for Eubank.

    Never thought I'd say that.
