    I was going to place a bet on eubank to win via any method, say 500 to 1k thinking after todays debacle the odds would be decent. Just checked and eubanks a heavy favorite

    I thought he’d be the underdog

    Eubank looks ****ing awful

    Benn and Hearn are away laughing at it, hope Snr does something ridiculous at the event - has he still got that massive truck thing?

    Be class to see Eubank drive through into the stadium in the truck with some sign on 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 know Conor is his son but Nigel Benn has been really pissing me off in the build up to this fight

    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 3 kids (2 sons). You always need to defend your kids at all costs, obviously. My boy 13 and girl 11 train BJJ. When I take them to competitions you’d be amazed at the attitude of these kids and their parents. Kids 12 years old weighing in with just boxers on, flexing whilst parents take pics. They all want to be Connor McGregor and the parents encourage it. My smile is all the bigger when my quiet polite respectful kids fold them in half, take their back and choke them.

    fortunately for me I have good kids I can defend win or lose unfortunately for Nigel his son is a see you next Tuesday that he has to defend.

    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.

    Hearn gloating about the failed weight is a shambles.

    Eubank jr is a bad injury away from his promoting career being over

    Just seen the weigh in and Eubank looks in super condition but looks frail and weak, never seen Benn fight, but would not surprise me a Benn win. Although smaller looks solid and healthy. Unless he is as crap as everyone has been saying.

    Is this the first fight in boxing history where both men have fake beards?
