  • Who wins in the Eubank vs Benn clash?

    I don't see Conor Benn's hand getting raised on this fight.

    What's the prevailing prediction in the UK?

    If I was to pick I'd go eubank. But itd not surprise me too much if connor wins, and in hindsight I will be telling myself yes I shouldve picked connor his sparring stories, making ibf cruiserweight champ quit

      Probably Eubank as he's more experienced plus it's his natural weight class whereas Benn's going up 2 divisions.

        eubank

        unless the hydration clauses weakens him and he has another smith moment where he got starched

        but i dont think eggie is even good enough if both were to try to happen

          Eubank easily, corner or ref stoppage first half of the fight.

            I don't care about this fight and i am in the uk. No way should this 'fight' be on ppv.

              The only question mark is the hydration clause. Eubank Jr isn't small and 35 isn't young.

              All being equal it is hard to make a case for Benn on anything he has shown. He hasn't won a British title.

              I am sure Benn, physically, will be fit and strong even if he is smaller because he's likely genuinely walking around at 160. Whereas Jr as a 35 year old man who has campaigned at 168 in the past. I'd bet he's at least 30 plus pounds heavier than Benn walk-around weight.

              If Eubank Jr is strong he stops Benn. If not then I guess he gets stopped himself.

              I agree with Eubank Sr even if he is a little mad.

              I don't really like the fight. Both are probably compromised in different ways, it's not for world title, I guess the British public are buying it and only because of their Dads.

              But take their names out of it. These are guys two weight classes apart. Neither are world champs and you can question the safety of the contest.

                Yeah Eubank if the hydration clause doesn’t **** him, should have it in bag.

                  Eubank is naturally bigger and has more experience but he has been KOed by a smaller fighter before.

                    Hearn stated during an interview that Eubank will have a morning weigh-in where his cap will be 170. So, basically Eubank has to adhere to IBF's rehydration rule.
