    I don't see this as at all unlikely.

    He has many shortcomings, but I have a hunch Benn wins (fairly or otherwise).

    If you make someone to fight lower than his natural boxing weight, he might lose.

    Nah, not buying it - he's trying to lull Benn into a false sense of security that it's going to be an easy night's work.

    I can't see Benn falling for it - he seems a very driven fighter to me.

    Somehow I sense Benn would have never taken this fight unless he knows Eubank will be seriously weak after making weight and easy pickings.

    I despise Chris Screwbank Jr., but his line at the press conference about him not going to be 100% was amazing:

    "If I'm at 100%, it's a public execution."

    :lol:

    Conor has turned me into a temporary CEJ fan and I'll be rooting for him in this one even though his taste in attire should be punishable by death.

    Benn's not likeable and what people forget is the Eubank Chin is one of the finest chins in boxing history, even a lesser diluted chin of Jr's is a 10x stronger chin than the Benn chin.

    He did look a little like General Zod from the 1980's Superman in that outfit ngl.
