Chris Eubank Jr has been fined \u00a310,000 by the British Boxing Board of Control over the “misuse of social media” in the build-up to his fight with Conor Benn.<\/b><\/p>\n

Benn was beaten by Eubank Jr in their grudge match in April<\/a> and much of the fight week build-up was dominated by weight cut and rehydration clauses.<\/p>\n

Eubank, 35, missed weight, incurring a \u00a3375,000 fine<\/a>, but was then under the rehydration limit on the day of the fight.<\/p>\n

The board called Eubank to a hearing<\/a> at the Southern Area Council after the Englishman posted several videos of his weight cutting process, which implied the use of a sauna.<\/p>\n

The board’s statement, released on the ‘notices’ section of their website, external<\/span><\/a> last Friday, did not mention the use of a sauna, the evidence they heard, how their decision was reached or what the misuse of social media related to.<\/p>\n

It also stated a “severe reprimand” had been placed on Eubank’s file after he was late to the official weigh-in in fight week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
