Eubank Jr vs Benn II Set for Saturday at Tottenham, With Rehydration Limits Under Scrutiny

Safety and career stakes frame the rematch after Eubank Jr rebuffs retirement talk.

Overview

  • The rematch is scheduled for Saturday 15 November at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with ringwalks expected at about 21:35 GMT on DAZN pay-per-view.
  • The fight is at 160 lbs with a 10 lb overnight rehydration cap, a clause drawing concern after Eubank Jr was fined for missing weight in April and later spent two nights in hospital with dehydration.
  • Eubank Jr rejects claims he will retire after the bout and says he plans to continue into 2026 with bigger fights.
  • Benn says therapy transformed his mindset since the first meeting and indicates he will return to welterweight after this contest.
  • Pundits are split on the outcome, with some favoring Eubank Jr’s size and experience and others backing Benn’s improvements, as a confirmed undercard and remaining tickets set the stage for fight night.
