    Wouldn’t surprise me if eubank done this on purpose to look weak and drained etc, he’s a mastermind of mind games.

    Everyone has known for a while he is struggling with the weight, they weren't calling him fatty yesterday on the off chance.
    He should never have agreed to it, you got to pay those poker bills though.

    I have no idea why Eubank accepted those weight clauses. He had the moral high ground to demand what weight he comes in at and he is the more established name and the draw. Benn couldn’t make the same money with anyone else.

    I doubt that, snooker players were earning barry a fortune long before eubank came along.

    The future of Matchroom depended on Eubank beating Benn. Barry’s words. They were broke and went all in.

    Tinpot manager and tinpot promoter.

    You'd think he was the one who failed the test. Benn seems to have gotten everything he wanted, same money I believe, and all Chris gets is too walk second. Clown operation.

    Poor management.

    Would not have happened on Sr’s watch.

    He wants to go his own way that’s up to him… suffer the consequences.

    Hearts would bleed for him getting fined 1% of his purse. Blood everywhere.

    If it was 1-2lbs over then yes. 0.05lbs? That’s not mind games or intentionally coming in over weight. That’s just pure bad luck. He essentially made the weight.

    I will be interested to know if he has actually been fined that amount as it is 1/20th of a pound overweight. Hope those scales were sufficiently calibrated
