Chris Eubank Jr will have to make a 157lb catchweight for his grudge fight with Conor Benn on October 8, a weight he hasn't touched since his teens.
The middleweight contender has fought as heavy as 168lb, but recently opted to return to 160lb in order to pursue titles in the lighter division. But despite already struggling with that limit, he will go another three pounds lower in order to fight Benn, who is moving up two weight divisions.
He will then also have to weigh-in at 11am the morning of the fight in order to make sure he hasn't rehydrated to a weight too heavy for the contest to take place. That has not been confirmed as yet, but reports suggest it will be as little as 162lb.
