Prograis Predicts Benn's Risk Will Ultimately Backfire

Regis Prograis believes Conor Benn is taking a significant risk by facing him, and this gamble will ultimately prove to be a costly mistake. Benn is set to return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where he has enjoyed previous successes, including victories over Chris Eubank Jr. However, Prograis, a former super-lightweight world champion, is moving up to 150lbs to challenge Benn at a catchweight with no rehydration limit. Prograis expressed confidence in his ability to secure a win, stating, 'They've set it on his terms, but I know I can win.' Despite the challenges posed by the weight difference, Prograis remains unfazed, having fought at 140lbs for most of his career. He revealed that he had requested a weight stipulation for the day after the fight but was denied. Prograis is keen to emphasize that he is the better fighter and is not concerned about the weight stipulations. He also confirmed that there is no rematch clause in place for his fight against Benn. Prograis views this bout as an opportunity to demonstrate his superiority and believes that a victory will open up numerous opportunities for him, including another world title shot. He aims to become a three-time champion and is confident that his abilities will shine through in the upcoming fight.
