The commonly emaciated Chris Eubank Jr. He came overweight at 160.05 during today’s weighing to fight Conor Bennem on Saturday evening in Dazn PPV. A smaller warrior, Benn, arrived at 150.4 pounds.
We always knew that it would be hard for the former super medium weight Eubank Jr., but today he showed that he made a mistake, agreeing to a 160 pound limit, along with a medieval 10-pound dehydration clause, which allowed a limit of 170 pounds.
Eubank Jr.
Chris Eubank Jr. He will have to pay a fine of $ 500,000, and this applies to a fine of $ 100,000 for Egging Benn during a press conference. This is $ 600,000 and can be additionally punished if it weighs over 170 pounds on Saturday as part of a 10-pound hydration clause. This penalty is $ 1 million.
Eubank Jr. Apparently, he receives a bag of $ 10 million per fight. So, even if he loses $ 1.6 million, he will still know how the bank’s robber with remaining cash.
Promoter Benna, Eddie Hearn, was in a elated mood, talking about Eubank Jr. Lacking the weight, treating him as if it was Conor’s victory. In the way he says, he has an idea in his head that Chris Jr. It will be exhausted enough for Benna (23-0, 14 KO) to win.
“Amazing. Half the ounce and so close. Unfortunately, of course there is no problem with the fight, but of course there are consequences for the missing weight that is already contracted,” said Eddie Hearn supervisor. Ring magazine About Chris Eubank Jr. No mass.
“Everything is all good. Junior missed the weight, but Conor did it at 156.4, feeling unbelievable, feeling fresh, feeling hydration and ready to work. I think he would bring weight if he changed several things.”
It does not matter that Benn had no problems with heavyness and will be on Saturday at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in London. He will still be far beyond his league, heading against Eubank Jr.
“He missed the weight and tomorrow we go to the next weighing [with a 10-lb rehydration limit]. There will be 162 in the ring. That’s all – said Hearn about Benn. “Eubank will have 176.
Conor distributes a stone in the ring, which is a huge disadvantage. This tiny period is probably the advantage of Conor because he feels amazing. “

Perhaps one of the reasons why Teofimo (21-1, 13 Kos) decided not to do a meeting was that he did it for the last time, hit Barboza Jr. After the face after he rejected the cowboy hat. Barboz Jr. He tried to get to Teo so that he could mark him, but he could never. If they made a meeting today, there are chances that Barboz Jr. He would hit him.
No fireworks?
“Trains will continue, honey. I am content, I am excited, let’s go,” said Arnold Barboz Jr. Great newcomers to New York For fighting the WBO Lightweight Welter Welter Teofimo Lopez champion on Friday, May 2. “I am very excited that I can share with him. He is an amazing warrior. He is one of the best at 140, right?”
It is premature to call Teofimo “peak 140” because he still did not fight the WBC champion Alberto Puello, the master of WBA Gary Antuanne Russell, or the main belt of IBF Richardson Hitchins.
“But I am also an amazing warrior. It will be fireworks. Let’s go. I stick to my game plan. On May 2, it’s time to activate,” said Barboza Jr.
This fight will not have fireworks because Teo and Barboz Jr. They are not lethargic. Teofimo has power, but never consistently attacks his opponents.
“We are here to present a concert and toasty it up for everyone and take over control. I come to the law. It’s all mine. I will always respect it, but he crossed this border and we must put it there,” said Teofimo when he was asked that he was striking Barboza Jr. during their last press conference.
“Nevertheless, on Friday, May 2, we will deal with business. Master? I am a master, rightly. He is not a master. He had to work in my own way, but he is still not there. So all that I will go there and do what I have to do – fun and beat the brakes from this boy,” said Teofimo.
Oscar de la Hoya, promoter Golden Boy, believes that if British fighters Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr. They will fight the rematch, probably “ends his career” because of the punishment they absorb in the Second War.
Eubank Jr. He threw almost 1,000 blows and had Benna near knocking in rounds 11 and 12. Chris Jr. He landed 367 out of 912 thrown at 40.2%. Benn was 215 of 593, for 36.3%.
Benn and Eubank Jr. I don’t have a career. They operate at the British national level. So, even if they are physically washed after the Second War, they can continue to fight the same opposition level, as before without any decline, because they don’t fight world -class fighters.
Eddie Hearn expressed the belief that Benn could win world titles in 147 and 154, but any little hope for this event could be broken if he fought again with Eubank Jr. In another exhausting match.
Both warriors traded with bombs from close range on Saturday evening in London, England. Naturally larger and more experienced warrior, Eubank Jr. (35-3, 25 KO), defeated Benna (23-1, 14 KO) by a 12-round unanimous decision of the results 116-112 x 3.
Hoyi warnings
“The rematch will probably end their career right away. It’s so intense,” said Oscar de la Hoya Warrior About Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr., if they fight again because of the exhausting first match.
Promoter Eddie Hearn expressed his concern for Benn’s career if he takes a rematch with Eubank Jr., because he knows that it will be an exhaustive fight that will push him to the edge. If Conor simply cares about the money and receiving this great day, he will probably take a rematch. He has already said that he wants to fight eubank jr again.
If Benn returns to the welterweight division after the second fight against Eubank Jr, it will not be good if he fights with pretenders or any of the masters. Even WBC Master Mario Barrios would be too good for him, especially after Eubank Jr.
Promoter Oscar de la Hoya asks if Devin Haney’s chin can be repaired in a year that he has left the ring since his defeat with Ryan Garcia in April last year. De la Hoya believes that Haney, 26, was abandoned three times, and he was wounded many times in the fight with Ryan, he could permanently impair his chin.

This is a bad thing for Haney (31-0, 15 KO), which was removed by the Modern York Sports Sports Committee because of the positive Garcia test for the forbidden Ostarina Ped. However, Haney is fighting the forceful hit of Jose Ramirez (29-2, 18 KO) this Friday, May 2, at the Times Square in Modern York. The commission can do nothing with Haney’s chin, who was detached from this fight with Garcia.
Career threatened?
De la Hoya believes that Haney has a heart and says that that is why he got up after dropping Kingra in April last year. However, if Haney’s chin disappears from this fight, the heart will not save him against the ramist, because he will hit him strenuous all night on the head. He will not take a break in rest, just like Ryan, because it has a better engine.
We could see the beginning of the end of Devin’s career on Friday evening if he was beaten and detained by Ramirez. It will be worse for Haney against other warriors in welterweight, because many of them hit harder than Ramirez and are much younger. Haney is too gigantic to return to 140, and even if he did, he would be food for fighters such as Gary Antuanne Russell, Alberto Puello and Richardson Hitchins.
“I think Devin has his hands full because he is leaving the destructive knockout. Will he enter the ring, thinking:” Oh my God, what happened to me in my last fight with Ryan? Wait a second. I have to face the ranie. What should I do? “Is a bit of confusion in Devin’s head,” said De la Hoya during Great arrivals On Monday in Modern York.
Haney will fight as always he did, stabbing, connecting and moving. We have seen his formula many times in the fighting with George Cambosos Jr. and Regis Prograis. He will try to frustrate Ramirez and remain out of scope of shooting.
“Will he hit me? Is I going to be knocked out? Is my chin still the same? When you are knocked out as a warrior, you are certainly, it just falls,” said De la Hoya. “He [Haney] showed the heart. The heart is different. Chin, you cannot fix the chin. It takes your confidence. “
Ramirez will hit him strenuous because this guy was his trainer Robert Garcia, to direct Haney’s chin to follow what Ryan did. Ramirez will try to exploit what Garcia did to Devin, focusing on head shots.
Brick analogy
“Let’s just put it this way. I can build a wall with a brick and put some cement, water and everything,” said De la Hoya. “But over time it will deteriorate. In time it will fall apart. Can Devina chin stand these forceful blows?
“Can his chin take these left hooks and his right hands over time. With time it’s like pushing into a rock. In the end you turn it into a pebble. Will we see Devin Haney with certainty and chin? I don’t know,” said De La Hoya.
