'Ready to challenge for a world title'published at 19:03 BST 10 April
Benn v Prograis
Conor Benn on his weight cut: "I could have made 147lb. Until you've done it you don't know. People said I couldn't walk around at 175lb for two years and come down but I've done it.
"I stayed in the gym after the (Chris) Eubank win ready to come back down and challenge for a world title."
On preparing to face a southpaw: "It's tricky at first and takes a while to get used to. It's my job to go in there and prove I'm at the level.
"I've been sparring middleweights all camp and I've been putting them over in the gym. I'm excited to be fighting someone my size for once."
