Regis Prograis believes Conor Benn faces a tougher challenge at their 150-pound catchweight limit. Prograis, a former junior welterweight champion, steps up from 140 pounds for the first time, while Benn, who has fought at 160 pounds, must adjust to a lighter weight. This fight is part of the Tyson Fury vs. Arslanbek Makhmudov event in London. Prograis emphasizes the difficulty for Benn, stating, “It’s definitely tougher for him... I feel real good right now.” He also dismisses injury rumors, assuring he is ready to compete. Meanwhile, Benn insists he can drop to the 147-pound welterweight limit if necessary, eyeing a future fight with WBC champion Ryan Garcia. Benn shares his disciplined approach to weight loss, having trained rigorously to prepare for this bout after walking around at 175 pounds for three years.
