    It will be a ploy.

    Ever since Mayweather used to eat burgers on the HBO 24/7 shows, other fighters have followed suit like utter lemmings.

    Haha yeah I remember Mayweather was eating Mac Donald drive through back in 2007 on HBO’s iconic 24/7 show..

    which fighters have followed suit like lemmings in the fifteen years since then?

    I think Chris Eubank Jnr will make weight fine, I just don't know if he has enough about him anymore, I watched the fights with Morrison and Williams and he didn't look that great, Williams helped him out early on but by the end it was closer than it ever should have been.

    So if I think Chris eubank jnrs name has carried him further than his ability I must be bitter? The guys lost the only important fights he's had. There's a reason he was headlining cards on TV so early in his career...you'll be shocked to learn it wasn't his talent, nor his charisma. I don't hate him, I don't hate anyone I've never met, strangely enough i find him more likeable in interviews these days than I ever have

    He was headlining because of his talent and charisma. Look at the Blackwell fight. That was great entertainment. It’s a shame about what happened but it was a bout well worthy of being on channel 5. He’s absolutely fantastic.

    If paying a few quid to paparrazi results in his name and face being in major news outlets that in return generates more interest and awareness about the fight.... then it'll pay its worth.

    Whatever people may think of Junior, he isn't daft and knows how to play the game to make a few quid.

    Jr fights are always good fun to watch, not everybody needs to be a title prospect to be worthy of viewing, neither of these two will have meaningful title runs so why not have the money fight. itll be a barn burner and all.
