Todays Weigh In

Post by MrJasonM »

I have a ticket for todays weigh in but I was just wondering what time Gavin, Skeete, BJS, Eubank Jr, Chisora and Fury will be weighing in.

It says the event starts at 12 and finishes at 4. I will have to leave at 3:30 to get to work, just wondering if it is worth me popping down.

I would imagine that the main ones will be early on to get on the lunch time sports bulletins and then through the afternoon (if sky are going to actually give it any coverage at all)

They are streaming it on BN from 2, so presumably not much is happening before then.

Billy Joe looked in good shape, but Eubank Jr is an absolute specimen. Incredible physique.

Shame physiques dont win fights.

Anyone hear Fury say about Chisoras broken ribs?

Edit: I think Chisora took what Fury said a little out of context after rehearing it!!

how did Sykes / Walsh look?

Still can't make my mind up on those and with both apparently struggling on weight probably go with whoevers made weight the best.

Yeah I noticed that aswell. There's no way Saunders is 5'11. Ive seen Froch next to Eubank jnr aswell and he looked a couple of inches taller and he's 6'0. The boxrec height listings seem all over the place.

Tyson Fury 264 vs. Dereck Chisora 241.5
Fury was wearing layers of clothing, God knows what is his real weight. That sht should not be allowed.

Boxers and their management exaggerate their height consistently. I've noticed this for years.

Froch himself says in his book that he's 6'0 though. Dont see why he'd downplay his height when most people do the opposite lol. Eubank Jnr is more like 5'10 I think and Saunders is more like 5'9.

Never seen him listed as anything other than 6'1, judging by the way he's matched up with opponents over the years, I'd say that measurement's pretty accurate.

More importantly, I wonder what Eubank Snr has in that Luis Vuiton man-bag he always carries around ?
