Overview
- Eubank Jr was fined £10,000 for breaching British Boxing Board of Control social media rules after posting footage implying sauna-assisted weight cuts.
- A Southern Area Council inquiry ruled he did not illegally use a sauna but placed a severe reprimand on his record for arriving late at the official 160-pound weigh-in.
- He missed the contracted limit by 0.05 pounds at the April weigh-in yet complied with the 10-pound rehydration clause on fight morning.
- Eubank Jr required hospital treatment for dehydration following his narrow points victory over Conor Benn at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
- Settlement of the fine is a prerequisite for the board to licence the fighters’ rematch set for September 20 in London.
