Just one day out from their rematch, Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn have both made weight.
So much was made of Eubank and Benn’s weigh in for their first clash where Eubank missed the weight by the smallest margins.
Both men weighed in this morning with Benn surprisingly coming onto the scales heavier than the 36-year-old.
Benn weighed 159.3lbs in comparison to Eubank at 159.1lbs.
‘The Destroyer’s’ promoter Eddie Hearn spoke to the Ring Magazine on how his fighter looked on the scales.
“Conor looked great, he looked amazing obviously it’s a lot easier for him to make limit.
“He was quite a bit heavier than last time.
“He has just really filled out for this training camp, he looks really big and strong.
He also spoke well on rival, Eubank and how he looked this time around.
“It was a lot more organised this time, Chris turned up pretty much on time.
“He looked good, he’s always gonna look tight at the weight
“He came in nearly a pound under which shows you what he can do it right.”
Eubank Jr missed weight in the initial weigh in for the first fight, missing the 160lbs limit by just 0.05lbs.
A lot was made of the missed weight and Eubank was fined $500,000 just day out from the fight.
Now Eubank will focus on tomorrow’s early weigh in, hindered once again by a rehydration clause meaning he cannot weigh in on fight day over 170lbs.
Despite missing weight in the first fight Eubank Jr made the rehydration weigh in comfortably, between 169.4lbs.
Benn seeks revenge tomorrow night, after being bettered on the cards in April.

Benn has stated in fight week he has no interest in fighting at 160lbs again, eyeing a world title shot against possible names including Mario Barrios, Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney and more.
For Eubank Jr many have discussed a possible retirement after Saturday night.
His promoter, Ben Shalom stated instead if he wants a fight with Canelo Alvarez he must put in a statement win tomorrow night.
