    Eubank is set to fight Benn at a catchweight of 155lbs, will this effect the outcome of this fight?
    2:20 155lbs

    Mark you need to stop posting unreliable sources or youtube videos with no credibility

    In fairness the source is relatively credible. Noises out of both camps say otherwise but stranger things have happened. Nostalgia sells

    Maybe, but he`ll have to shed a lot of weight and Benn is the better fighter P4P.

    Hearn has said it’s not true. Frankly if I was Eubank Jr I won’t come down in weight and if young Benn wants it force him to come to 160 or 158.

    This sounds nice but is very unlikely to happen....the fact this comes from Fish Eyes makes it even less likely...

    What a completely pointless fight at this stage of Benn's career. can't see this happening as it does neither man any favours other than financially. Benn is at a disadvantage and why risk fighting a much bigger man when he is well ranked at welter. Eubank on the other hand , this is him all over. All he cares about is money .he has no intention of fighting any top middleweights and never has had.

    That's his main source of information, clueless people on YouTube always know best.

    They are apparently saying 156lb. I can't see Eubank making that safely. I do think he is the better fighter but the weight will be the crippling factor here
