    "Eubank didn't make weight - the fight goes ahead but the IBO interim intercontinental world catchweight silver title is no longer at stake"

    He doesn't believe Conor is in more danger. He just lies absolutely non stop

    Watch this video from 1:20, for around the next minute Hearn says what he really thinks in terms of fighters moving up and others boiling down, not realising how it relates to the Benn Eubank fight

    Sensible. All the top welterweights are with PBC who pretty much refuse to work with Matchroom these days. I know Charlo is undisputed at 154 and also PBC but he’ll vacate one, some or all the belts soon enough.

    After seeing them on Good Morning Britain I was still abit concerned about how gaunt Eubank was in the face. But seeing how fat and round Benn's mush was is quite funny.

    It's bizarre when you see little guys bulking fast, their faces are always telling. I don't think Benn is ever heavier than 165, I don't think he is a particularly big welter so going up because off aesthetics seems a little strange, he's better off stayng at 147 rather than trying to get a Love Island body on that frame.

    Im wondering if it will make a difference with his speed and stamina. We know Eubank has a half decent engine. Young Connor may become sluggish as the fight goes on.

    And Benn hasn't looked great in longer fights (not that he's had many). Am I right in saying he's gone 10 rounds once but never longer?
