Eubank and Benn both make weight for rematch

Chris Eubank Jr has won 35 of his 38 fights

Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn both came in on weight for their rematch at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.

Eubank missed the middleweight limit by 0.05lb and was fined £375,000 prior to their fight in April, but avoided any hiccups this time.

The 36-year-old, who earned a thrilling points win over Benn in their first bout, hit the scales at 11st 5lb (72kg).

Benn, 29, who has spent most of his career at welterweight, also came in at 11st 5lb (72kg). The weigh-in took place behind closed doors in London.

Both fighters are bound by a rehydration clause that prohibits them from weighing more than 12st 1lb (77kg) on Saturday morning.

There will be a ceremonial weigh-in, which will be open to the public, at York Hall in Bethnal Green on Friday evening.

What is the rehydration clause?

Just as when Eubank and Benn fought in April, there is a rehydration clause that both must adhere to - meaning neither man can put on more than 10lb between Friday's weigh-in and Saturday morning.

Benn's team feel the rehydration clause allows for a more level playing field.

The weight disparity, with Benn jumping up two divisions for this contest, has been a hot topic in the build-up to both fights.

In April, Eubank missed the middleweight limit of 11st 6lb by 0.05lb at the weigh-in- but came in comfortably below the rehydration limit the next day.

Fighters usually shed fat over the course of their training camp to get close to the agreed or stipulated weight limit.

Prior to the weigh-in, which takes place a day before fight night, they may dehydrate to lose the final bit of weight.

Losing water weight close to the fight allows them to refuel with food and water much more easily.

Eubank says he usually puts on about 14lb after a weigh-in.
