Come one one reality show is nothing to these people! Jodie Marsh has done 3 that I've seen, that Irish bloke Fran did I'm a celebrity, and Love Island, Jordan's done a host.
I think most of tv nowadays is just ways of keeping C listers in paid employment, Chris would be great value on I'm a celebrity

Eubank used to stop his truck (the largest in Europe, ofcourse) at petol stations to fill it up before buying a bottle of the most expensive water available and proceeding to pour just a drop of it on his hands, rub his hands together, and then throw the rest of the luxury H20 away!

OBviously it wasn't a serious statement. Maybe he'll fight as a joke against a bum somewhere.
In all honesty...I hate this shat.
Fighters like Holyfield, Jones jr., Hopkins, Bowe, & so on & so on should know that they're done. They need to salvage what little bit of respect that they have left in their careers instead of trying to milk one more $$$ fight to pad their egos or wallets.
One reason why I respect Lennox so much.
I would have no use in seeing Eubank come out of retirement.

My name is Jim Borzell. Some individual who knows my history very well is using my name to post on this forum. While I take no offense at what he has said - yet, I find it very objectionable that someone is speaking as me, having given him no authorization to do so.
I make my living in the boxing business. I do not wish to defend any statement made by this person. Should he post one more time, I'll have no choice but to have him terminated from this forum.
Thank you.

Re: Chris Eubank says he'll come out of retirement!
A lot of people wrote Eubank off as a phoney at the beggining - a posing oddity who did not have the heart of a fighter.
Oh how he proved them wrong... Eubank was a true fighting warrior. Yeah he had his share of easy opponents but then he was fighting them so soon after each other that he didn't reallt get time to recover.
The first fight against Benn was ferocious but even that paled next to the second Watson fight. Eubank bared his soul in that fight and earned my everlasting respect for him as a fighter.
Us British are a funny breed - Eubank only started getting any kind of major approval/acceptance after he lost.
Chris Eubank JNR is trying to make his own mark as a fighter in the states... I suspect that is the the only Eubank we will see gracing a boxing ring. Eubank Snr should not and will not make a comeback.

Well he is bankrupt now so it's always a possibility. Eubank is probably my all time favourite fighter, frustrating as hell sometimes but his style was just unique.
I watched a rerun of Benn Eubank 1 earlier in the week and I think at his best he was the greatest suppermiddle Britain has ever produced.
It would be a shame if he did come back and get hurt, but if he got himself in shape I reckon he could still make a few quid.
Maybe they could pursuade Nigel Benn to step into the ring with him one more time. I'd rather watch that then Hopins Tarver!
BILBO your favorite fighter was a guy who threw his right hand like he was trying to hit a lightbulb ? very strange indeed

And Johnny Marr stated Sugar Ray Leonard wants the winner of that ;)
Morrisey V Marr, now that would be a fight!
