He’s joking, but he picked his moment well. The heavyweights have a signed fight in Cardiff, yet arguments over Dana White’s role and drug testing are already competing with the fight itself for attention.

“If Fury vs AJ falls through… I’ll stop dieting, put the extra lbs back on & step up to the plate. Let me know boys," said Eubank Jr. on X.

Eubank tagged both men and showed a scale reading of 206 pounds. He’s carrying a paunch, too. It’s a funny reveal from a fighter whose recent bouts were at middleweight, and he surely knows that putting on weight does not prepare him for Fury or Joshua.
