Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn will today face an anxious wait, with the pair still clinging onto hope that their catchweight fight will be given the green light this weekend.
With news breaking yesterday that Benn had returned an adverse drug test for banned substance Clomifene, the event was cast under serious doubt. Wasserman and Matchroom Boxing then released a statement shortly after confirming the fight was still set to go ahead.
However, just hours later, the British Boxing Board of Control then responded insisting that no such bout could take place and that any such fight was 'prohibited'. The two are set to face off again at today's press conference, with fans waiting with bated breath regarding a final decision.
