Eubank Jr, 33, must make the lowest weight of his entire professional career after agreeing to weigh in under 157lbs – but he’s clearly very confident of managing it.
Benn’s trainer and mentor Tony Sims recently revealed the bout, which takes place on October 8 at the O2 Arena in London, will be cancelled if the middleweight hits 159lbs or more.
