He'll be gutted, if he wins he doesn't get to take home the IBO Title :cry:

The fact that Arthur hasn't even bothered with the weight just makes this even more of a pointless fight.

Abraham not interested clearly , oh and this is PPV :brick:

I put fifteen bob on Abraham to win at 5/1. Thoughts?

Made weight at 3rd time of asking after time in the sauna apparently. Eubank stoppage now looking a decent bet.

Can only presume he needs to make weight for the tie in with Super Series if he did win as he wouldn't have bothered otherwise surely.

Didn't t the board ban using saunas to make weight ?? If I'm not mistaken it was after Butler messed the weight up last year against a Thai lad.

I buy nearly every PPV (*booo hisss*) but I'm certainly not buying this. Its absurd to suggest CEJ v an aging Arthur Abraham is PPV worthy.

£16.95? :lol:

I happen to be into pro cycling and so watch the Tour De France highlights show at 7pm on ITV4 most days. Recently they have been plugging this fight like mad. A combination of adverts that make Eubank look like Marvin Hagler but, worse still, even the cycling commentators plugging it non-stop at the end of each episode.

All seems a bit desperate to me.

Can't fault the way ITV have marketed this.

Two adverts in every break of a sporting programme.
One advert in every non sport show for two weeks.
Guest slot on loose women.
Documentary on Eubanks.

This could potentially do decent numbers.

Is that right, he missed weight by nearly two pounds and then sweated it off in the sauna? If so, I don't think the fight should be allowed to go ahead.

Had a few quid on Eubank KO/TKO 1-6, 6/1. Could be a possibility if Abraham suffers from shredding the weight yesterday.
