Comments Thread For: Eubank Jr. on Facing Benn: I'm The A-Side, He Needs To Be Fully Acquitted, 100% Clear To Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Middleweight contender Chris Eubank Jr. has made it very clear that he's the one calling the shots in a potential showdown with unbeaten welterweight Conor Benn. Eubank and Benn were scheduled to collide last October, at a catchweight of 157-pounds, but the entire event fell apart during fight week when news broke that Benn tested positive for a banned substance.

Oh ya bebe ewbanks tellin the egg where he can get boiled!the dads should fight on the undercard to make this the biggest card bumbritish herstory

I don't care for Jr. who in my opinion is a waste of decent talent and way above his station, but he's right here. Until Benn clears himself , which he can't seem to do properly he doesn't want to be involved and rightly so. By the time little Benn serves a ban or fights someone decent that fight will go up in smoke anyway and end up in an arena at best. Certainly not Wembley Stadium as nutty Hearn suggests.

The match has got to be at 160 this time.

[gooderz84]

160 and sanctioned. This is his last chance at a legit title run. Don't blow it fannying around with weight

[hugh grant]

True, nobody is interested to see if Benn can beat eubank at 157. Otherwise.might as well have it at 147 if winning is so important to benn

[diarraisagod]

As soon as somebody says "I'm the A side" I doubt the fight is going ahead. You might as well just say "I'm going to make demands the other guy isn't going to like".

This fight is trash anyway. They're too far apart in weight. Benn's never even fought for a title or lost trying before he's wanting to jump two weight classes. They should stay in their own lanes. CEJ with a title run at 160 and Benn just needs to get cleared and active again at 147.

Now is the time to try and get a title.

[wrecksracer]

neither of these guys are the A Side lol. It's more like C and D side.

It's like the 'little and large show', Jr. is big middleweight , Benn a small welterweight. One is at the end of his career and the other is starting up .Other than the fact their fathers fought there is no reason why they should , they both have everything to prove in their own divisions , it's just to make any easy buck off the back of their fathers names...it has no substance at all .Hearn saying that this fight is a Wembley Stadium fight just shows how ridiculous the man is.
