Just as when Eubank and Benn fought in April, there is a rehydration clause that both must adhere to – meaning neither man can put on more than 10lb between Friday’s weigh-in and Saturday morning.
Benn’s team feel the rehydration clause allows for a more level playing field.
The weight disparity, with Benn jumping up two divisions for this contest, has been a hot topic in the build-up to both fights.
In April, Eubank missed the middleweight limit of 11st 6lb by 0.05lb at the weigh-in- but came in comfortably below the rehydration limit the next day.
Fighters usually shed fat over the course of their training camp to get close to the agreed or stipulated weight limit.
Prior to the weigh-in, which takes place a day before fight night, they may dehydrate to lose the final bit of weight.
Losing water weight close to the fight allows them to refuel with food and water much more easily.
Eubank says he usually puts on about 14lb after a weigh-in.
