what difference is the 4lb likely to make?

[sicko]

Son's of Legends getting themselves a good Payday I guess but it is so MEANINGLESS! Neither are Champions in their Division, neither considered the best in their Division or anything they just so happen to be sons of British Legends

I guess...

Dropped 3 times and jaw broken by a journeyman in a fight he clearly lost but got a gift decision, but you think he can stand up to a man that put a MW in a coma?
There's a reason he's been fighting washed former 140s that can't **** and have no punch resistance

I didn't say that. And if you've been reading any of my comments you'll see I'm not in favour of this fight, and I'm also saying it's a big risk. I'm simply stating that just because he's been down before at the level at which he was at, doesn't mean he can't keep winning. In fact he's went on to fight better fighters than Peynaud and not be put down again. Therefore by your logic, everyone of those should have put Benn down also. Clearly that didn't happen. And there's no guarantee he will be put down in this fight. But it's risky for sure.

Wrong fight for both of them at this stage of their career but the names the history and the £££ it makes sense

given both their styles it should be a real war

Obviously it won't be the wrong fight for the winner lol.

Let them. They just want to settle who the best legend's son is on the rock. No cheating.

He's probably already boiling down for 160. Under those circumstances, 4 lbs is a lot. And if he's still trying to shift it on fight week, it could potentially affect his gas tank, if it's a high intensity 12 rounds. And you can bet Benn is planning for high intensity.

Outrageous that this is PPV in the UK. Hope nobody buys it.

[Flickergrab98]

I’m actually surprised this was made. Now if only the fights we all wanted could be made that easily.

Why? Are you a hater?

No doubt some people will ridicule Eubank jr as an opponent for Benn. Weight issues aside, it's a step forward in terms of competition. He's better than who Benn has previously beaten. And since he's continually compared to Ennis and Ortiz jr, and slaughtered by certain fanbases, I'll just point out that, Eubank jr is a better opponent than both of their last opponents. He's better than Custio Clayton and Michael McKinson, no doubt. I'm not saying Benn will win. In fact i feel it's the wrong fight for him. But should he win, he'll deserve some credit. But we all know, those people won't give him it lol.
