Adam Guillen has been writing (and translating) for MMAmania.com since 2011, covering the latest UFC, Bellator, PFL and other mixed martial arts (MMA) news and latest happenings throughout the combat sports world.

IBO middleweight champion, Chris Eubank Jr. and WBA Continental (Europe) welterweight champion, Conor Benn, came face-to-face for the final time prior to their heavily-anticipated 160-pound title fight this Saturday (April 26, 2025) during the ceremonial weigh ins in London, England (results here).

During the official weigh ins earlier this morning (Thurs., April 25), Eubank Jr. narrowly missed weight after two attempts, which prompted officials to hit him with a massive $500,000 fine, which will go to his opponent. And to say Benn was happy with the news would be an understatement.

Check out their staredown in the video embedded above, as well as the rest of the main card face offs below:

Anthony Yarde vs Lyndon Arthur

Liam Smith vs Aaron McKenna

Chris Billam-Smith vs Brandon Glanton

Viddal Riley vs Cheavon Clarke

The two men have done their part to build up the fight thanks to one scuffle after another during previous encounters, so all that is left to do is settle their longstanding beef inside the ring inside Tottenham Hotspur Stadium LIVE on DAZN pay-per-view.

The winner will also be one of the front-runners to land a big money fight against none other than Canelo Alvarez in 2026.
