It will eventually. On Saturday? Possibly not.
Apparently it has officially been called off. I think this could have an adverse affect on Benn’s career.
FFS, keep up.

The BBBofC announced hours ago that they were "prohibiting" the fight from happening.

Hearn then claimed he was going to get lawyers involved in response to the BBBofC's decision, and also didn't rule out finding another board to sanction the fight.

Since then no announcements have been made.
An article that was online 5 minutes prior to me posting my last post stated it was ‘officially off’ that article has now been removed.
I am following this story just like you are.
Fight now off or postponed. Shame as I was looking forward to seeing Eubank JNR give Benn a good hiding.

Neither are likeable in fairness.

I think after this fiasco, Eubank JNR would have been the one many would have wanted to win
Personally I think Eubank JNR is funny, whereas I think Benn just comes across as being aggressive and petulant.

It was the only way this fight was going to happen though.

Even as a tune-up fight it's a very uninteresting match-up.

Wake me up when Fury vs Usyk is made.

Probably next May. Fury was always going to fight in December. The AJ fight didn’t happen. Eddie Hearn I’m sure will be glad of that.
The build up for Fury v Chisora should be fun. The fight will more than likely be a one sided beat down for however long it lasts.

The build-up will not be fun. We've seen it all before.

I was not as desperate as most others to see Fury vs Joshua. In addition to Fury being plain better than Joshua, he's also a horrific style match up for him in my view. Still, it would have been a bigger spectacle and more interesting than Fury vs Chisora 3.

Regarding the build up. Yes we’ve seen it before, but it’s still good to watch in my opinion. Chisora has thrown a table thrown water in Dillian Whytes face, spat water at Wladimir Klitschko. Let’s see what he can come up with next?

Despite what you and others think, I suspect it will do decent numbers at the gate and ppv, especially if the build up has some shenanigans.

People in this country would show up to watch a dog take a shit if the media told them too.

I have a soft spot for Del Boy.

But I lost interest in his shenanigans and boxing career years ago. I didn't even bother watching his previous two fights.
