Both Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn weighed in under the 170lb rehydration limit earlier this morning ahead of their middleweight clash at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium tonight.

Benn weighed in at 165lbs while Eubank hit 169lbs 4oz on the scales.

The pair will clash in a 12-round, grudge match at the top of Ring Magazine's first ever boxing event this evening at Spurs.

Much has been made of the weight stipulations in the build-up to their cross-generational clash, which was originally supposed to take place in October 2022 at a 157lb catchweight.

This time around, both men had contractually agreed to the middleweight limit of 160lbs, with a 10lb rehydration clause in place for the day of the fight, meaning neither man could weigh more than 170lbs before this morning.

Benn (23-0, 14 KOs), a career welterweight who fought at the junior-middleweight 154lb limit for his last two fights, came in over 3lbs under the divisional maximum at 156lbs 4oz on Friday.

Eubank Jr (34-3, 25 KOs) has fought as high as 168lbs on numerous occasions previously, but his last four contests have taken place at middleweight.

The 35-year-old, however, missed weight for his bout with Benn, coming in at 160lbs 0.5oz on his second attempt, after initially weighing in at 160lbs 2oz, leaving him with a hefty £375,000 fine to pay.

But both men are under 170lbs ahead of tonight's battle and are now free to replenish as much as they wish before they step into the ring.

On Friday The Ring's Mike Coppinger wrote on X: "Chris Eubank Jr. was 160.2 pounds on his first attempt at today’s official weigh-in. Eubank weighed 160.05 on his second and last attempt, sources tell @ringmagazine, for a fight at 160. He’ll be fined $500,000 (£375,000), per the weight clause in the contract and can’t exceed 170 pounds at the same-day weigh-in Saturday morning or he’ll face further penalty."

Eubank Jr and Benn, along with the undercard fighters, partook in a ceremonial weigh-in on Friday night (6pm GMT/1pm ET) at the Business Design Centre in Islington, North London.

The fight will be shown live on DAZN PPV in the United Kingdom and United States, while Sky Sports Box Office will also screen the event in the UK.
