Overview

• Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn said Eubank would be at least three pounds under the 10-pound rehydration limit on fight morning.
• Eubank missed the first fight’s 160-pound weight by 0.05 lb, incurred a £500,000 fine, and weighed 169.4 lb the next day, reportedly while wearing a jacket.
• Both fighters were taken to hospital after the April bout following a grueling 12 rounds.
• Hearn noted Eubank’s recent run at middleweight but said the fighter must soon choose between staying at 160 or moving to 168.
• The promoter billed the rematch as a roughly 50-50 fight and suggested Benn may benefit from having 12 middleweight rounds in the bank.
