Eubank Jr misses weight and fined £375,500

Chris Eubank Jr will be fined £375,500 ($500,000) after missing the weight by just 0.5lb for Saturday's grudge match with Conor Benn.

The 35-year-old weighed 2lb over the 11st 6lb limit on the first attempt and was still too heavy the second time.

A trimmed and toned Benn – who has operated at welterweight for most of his career – came in lighter than expected at 11st 2lb.

Eubank and Benn are both bound by a rehydration clause that prohibits them from weighing more than 12st 1lb on Saturday morning.
