Not sure that showing them all buddy buddy is a sensible move from the promoters.

Take away the seemingly genuine enmity and what’ve you got left - a shot, fringe world level guy against a fringe British level ex drug cheat.

Once was enough for me

They both know they're each worth an enormous lot of money to each other.

I'm not at all sure they will.
Remember the first fight when the cameras wide panned the crowd and there were a lot of empty seats in the second block all around?
I think they moved the crowd up to give the impression of a full house, but it wasn't.
They also said it had sold out, and maybe that was the case. The touts who couldn't on sell their tickets probably aren't going to lose their arse twice.

Eubank had nothing behind his shots on Saturday.

It’s dangerous for someone in their mid-30’s to be fighting at a lower weight than what he was in his prime with a rehydration clause.

But then the obvious counter argument is what’s the point in a rematch if Eubank is 100% as Benn will get knocked out.

I would like to see Eddie Hearn, Gareth A Davies & all these other ‘experts’ theory put to the test that Benn can go away & win world titles at welterweight.

I’d bet a very sizeable wedge that Benn won’t beat any 147 champions & in all likelihood he won’t even fight at 147 again.
That seemed very sensible when you wrote it, but now..?
May very well fight Crocker next and win ! :maybe: :box: :o

Difficult to sell an outdoor show in the middle of November, totally at the risk of rain, cold or worse.

BOARD OF CONTROL 'TAKE LEGAL ADVICE' AFTER CHRIS EUBANK JR'S PRESS CONFERENCE RANT

LONDON — Robert Smith, the general secretary of the British Boxing Board of Control, has confirmed that they have taken legal advice following Chris Eubank Jr’s scarcely believable press conference rant.

As reported by The Ring last week, Eubank used part of Wednesday’s launch press conference for his rematch with Conor Benn to take aim at the Board, who govern professional boxing in the United Kingdom, and Smith in particular.

During the outburst, Eubank suggested that Smith was partly responsible for his failure to make the weight and then accused him of being in "in the back pockets of Matchroom and Eddie Hearn."

“Just another scumbag in this treacherous and underhanded industry we find ourselves in,” he said.

Eubank also questioned what the Board do with the money they receive from fines, such as the £100,000 he paid for hitting Benn with an egg during a head-to-head before their first fight.

The 36-year-old from Brighton won his initial encounter with Benn, claiming a unanimous decision via three 116-112 scorecards after a pulsating clash at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in April.

Immediately after the fight, an extremely dehydrated Eubank was sent straight to hospital but he alleged that his ambulance was held up for 20 minutes before it was allowed to leave the stadium.

Although he appeared to blame Matchroom directly for that particular issue, Eubank did question why the Board failed to investigate it.

When offered an immediate right of reply by The Ring, Smith was unavailable for comment but he did appear on talkSPORT over the weekend.

He said: “Obviously I can’t say too much about Chris Eubank as we have taken legal advice but it is disappointing that anybody would say that any member of the Board or myself would do anything detrimental to a boxer’s health.

“To say somebody deliberately stopped an ambulance from leaving a venue is quite unbelievable.”

Eubank and Benn are set for a rematch back at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on November 15.

Started in the 60’s.. then became more popular in the 80’s and 90’s.

I first saw it used in boxing with the Sky face off’s with Company Nelson.

I think they’ll definitely want it, I can’t see a better chance for Benn to win a belt but I’d be surprised if he can make the weight. He’s not made welterweight for 3 1/2 years

I@m not saying "Benn destroys The Croc!" or anything.
But if Benn has a good nutritionist feeding him the right amount of eggs etc. to make 147 like he used to...
Defo winnable - Benn's faster if nothing else.

Brian 'Bomac' McIntyre: I Would Have Approached First Benn Fight Differently

Less than a week after masterminding Terence Crawford’s brilliant victory over Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in their undisputed super middleweight title fight in Las Vegas, Brian ‘BoMac’ McIntyre found himself at a press conference in London.

The Ring's 2023 Trainer of the Yer was seated alongside his fighter, Chris Eubank Jr, who, on November 15, will rematch Conor Benn at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The 12-round middleweight fight will be streamed exclusively by DAZN.

This isn’t the first time the two have worked together. Back in September 2023, McIntyre prepared Eubank for his rematch with Liam Smith.

Having been stopped by the Liverpudlian in the fourth round of their first fight, Eubank produced one of the best performances of his career to turn the tables and score a tenth round victory.

Although Eubank (35-3, 25 KOs) won the first fight with Benn (23-1, 14 KOS), he admitted that the Londoner’s performance took him by surprise. Recruiting McIntyre to devise a gameplan and improve his performance is as sure a sign as any that he is taking the return extremely seriously.

During an appearance on TalkBoxing, McIntyre revealed that only scheduling issues prevented them from working together ahead of Eubank's first fight with Benn and that he has a pretty good idea as to why the 36-year-old trusts him.

“You know, that's a good question and the only thing I could think of is because, probably, I'm the best,” McIntyre said.

“We had a great camp and we had a great fight the last fight that we was together against Liam and everything went smooth during camp. Outside the gym, inside the gym, everything went smooth.”

McIntyre’s ongoing success will inevitably persuade fighters from all around the world that he is the man to unlock their true potential.

Although Eubank's conditioning and commitment have never been in question, there has long been a perception that he chooses if and when to listen to his cornermen and that his aversion to building a long term, ongoing relationship with a trainer has held him back.

McIntyre insists that once he got to know Eubank, he found him to be a quiet, diligent worker and that he saw no evidence that he can be difficult to work with.

“No. No. I don't get that from Chris,” he said.

“Any fighter that I work with, I sit them down and tell them what I expect out of them. That’s the first thing we did when we first had the first fight together and he went right along with it and we just picked up where we left off at this time.”

McIntyre has seen the exciting first fight between Eubank and Benn.

There were times when Eubank was able to slow down the pace of the fight and box well behind his jab but, eventually, he was forced to rely on heart, grit and courage.

Only Eubank will know whether or not the hostile build-up and entirely unique set of circumstances that surrounded the event affected him or whether Benn’s aggression and desire dragged him out of his preferred state.

Whatever the reason, he certainly didn’t employ the cold, calculating, considered style that has brought McIntyre’s fighters such success.

Unsurprisingly, McIntryre would have advised Eubank to adopt a different approach.

“Yeah, I would have. I would have approached it a little bit different,” he said.

As for exactly what he would change, McIntyre was predictably tight lipped.

“I can’t tell you that."
