Carl Frampton predicts that Chris Eubank Jr. On Saturday morning, the 10-pound rehydration clause will blow and the fine will pay rather than drain himself for his fight against Conor Benn on April 26.
Million dollars fine
Eubank jr. (34-3, 25 COs) have already missed weight today at Friday’s weigh-in, at 160.05 pounds, and will be deducted $ 500,000 from his wallet. The weight penalty for the 10 pound rehydration clause is $ 1 million. No fighter can weigh more than 170 pounds on Saturday morning, otherwise they will be fined with a $ 1 million fine.
Frampton is of the opinion that eubank jr. Only the fine will accept because he is badly drained today, after dropping to 160. It would be difficult for him to withhold fluids and food overnight to keep his weight within the 170 pound limit.
Some people believe that he went through a sauna to get to 160.05 pounds today, which would have been hard on his body, as he has a difficult battle before him tomorrow night.

“I can imagine that this happened. He weighed on his own scales. He charged with his own scales, but there was a difference between his own scales and the official’s scales, ‘Carl Frampton said Box sociallyAnd his theory gives about why Chris Eubank Jr. Saturday night in the weigh -in of today’s weigh -in for his struggle with Conor Benn.
Given the enormous $ 500,000 fine, Eubank Jr. Earlier at the weigh-in place, a lot of arrived to ensure that he was on target. Obviously, with the great wallet of $ 10 million he will receive for his battle with Benn, he feels more than he would if he didn’t get the kind of dough.
Over the limit
“Because he got so late, there wasn’t enough time to get the rest of the remaining weight down. It hurt him, and it is of course up to 160. I think the (10-lb) rehydration clause can also hurt him if he sticks to it, but I have the feeling that he won’t, “Frampton says.
It sounds like a reasonable explanation as to why Eubank Jr. Has missed weight. His scale at home reads differently than the weigh -in scale, which gives him a false sense of safety. When he realized that he was still over with a significant amount of weight, it was too late to lose the remaining pound before the weigh -in.
“That’s a lot of money ($ 0.1 million). He already has to pay a big fine ($ 100,000) for the egg clap, and then miss the weight here ($ 500,000). It was half a gram of something or something insane,” Frampton said. “A pack of chips in weight but it’s like a great fine of $ 375. I think He is going to say, ‘F *** off to the rehydration clause’ And weigh in what he wants and pay another fine.
“If you get $ 10 million for a fight, it’s a little easier to pay their fines, isn’t it? You want to be in the best form, and the rehydration clause does not allow him to supplement as he wants. He has never done it; That’s the thing. He has never done one of these things.
“I’ve done it a few times as the IBF champion. It’s a hard thing to do, and eubank is much bigger than me. It was hard for me than a 122-pound warrior. It is going to be much harder for Chris Eubank to stay within the limit,” Frampton said.
