All eyes are on the scales as Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn successfully made weight for their highly anticipated middleweight rematch this Saturday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Weigh-In Results Reveal Surprise
In a surprising turn of events, Chris Eubank Jr tipped the scales at 159.1lbs (11st 5lb), comfortably under the 160lbs middleweight limit. His rival, Conor Benn, who has previously competed as a welterweight, came in slightly heavier at 159.3lbs (11st 5lb).
The official weigh-in ceremony is scheduled for Friday night at the historic York Hall, but the initial measurements were taken earlier on Friday, 14th November 2025.
A Contrast to Previous Fight
This successful weigh-in stands in stark contrast to the fighters' previous bout in April. On that occasion, Eubank Jr initially weighed 160.2lbs and then 160.5lbs on a second attempt, missing the contracted limit.
As a result, the 36-year-old from Brighton was forced to pay a substantial forfeit fee of £375,000 (500,000 US dollars) directly to Benn. Benn famously spent the windfall on a luxury Rolls-Royce.
Final Showdown Ahead
Eubank Jr has ensured history did not repeat itself, making weight with ease ahead of the final face-off at York Hall. The stage is now set for the British pair to settle their score in front of a massive crowd in North London.
The boxing world awaits to see if Eubank Jr's discipline on the scales translates to victory in the ring, or if Benn's confidence with a slight weight advantage will prove decisive.
