Benn urges Eubank to sign March 2016 trilogy fight contract | World Boxing News
I thought Nigel was living a life away from boxing but he's been in the gym lately and has now been using social media to try and goad Eubank into a 3rd fight for March 2016. What the fuck?
Nigel Benn Wants A Third Fight With Chris Eubank - Pundit Arena
Silly about like Steve Collins wanting Roy Jones.
Benn vs. Jones would be worth a watch at this point for free of course.
Silly macho bollocks, they should both know better, and more importantly set a better example to their kids.Quote:

Would sell.
Would make the news.
Could possibly be PPV.
Worth a go IMO.
Winner gets Gerald Mcclennan.
Why so he can do enough to earn a win and be handed a draw again ;D
Really though if I saw Cotto calling himself THE middleweight champ I might understand the comeback itch if I were Benn
I would prefer to see his children fight one another. Benn was shot to pieces after his last fight many years ago.
Benn must be trying to hype his son.
And I thought Eubank was nuts!
Bad idea, Nigel. A very bad idea. Benn never had the greatest chin or stamina even in his heyday. He was shot to shit the last time he fought and he's now 51-years-old. Eubank probably still takes a very good shot and I don't think it would be too difficult for him to get Benn out of there.
Yeah, its ok feeling good loading up on the pads but as soon as someone tough is stood in front of him punching him back he will remember why he quit and how old he is;DQuote:

You want to see the equivalent Jones v Toney 2 now? :)Quote:

I'm a huge benn fan always was always will be . Would I like to see benn KO eubank absolutely but I equally wouldn't want benn to lose to eubank that would ruin the rest of this decade for me .
He wants, so what? but we don't want
Benn has a son who is 18 and good prospect that should be the attention.
To be honest although I do think Benn is mabe fooling himself. Maybe also he has been sparring rounds and feels he has the stamina as would he risk letting Eubank have another win over him? Could he live with that? Or does he just need the money only a third Eubank fight could generate?
I think Benn would get found out quick but I would also watch it.
Has anyone heard of Eubank sparring at all recently or since his retirement? I reckon he must have dabbled since his kids started up.

I swear some black people don't age. No way he's 51 ffs.
Hatton on pads though... ''Keep you chin up lad, that's it, nice and square, your a likkle bit balanced, keep all the weight on your front foot, there's a good lad, looking great''.
Benn still has some speed for a 51 year old.
Benn was probably pissed he was stopped by a man who now carries a purse.Quote:

Eubank by his own admission didn't really love the game back in the day, and he had to find a reason to motivate himself. Now, in his fifties, how would he motivate himself?
I can't think pad work would help him much because he would walk around the pads strutting his stuff and throwing a punch every 30 seconds.
Eubank giving Danny Garcia a run for his money as best dressed :-X
I can't see Benn winning if they fought now.Quote:

Nigel is one of my favourite boxers ever, but Eubank probably still has one hell of a good chin and that's what this would come down to. At the age these two are now, the ability to take a punch would decide this and I have no doubt that Eubank is in a better position to be taking punishment than Benn is. Whatever anyone says about Eubank, his chin was like granite and probably still is.
I really hope no one gets any stupid ideas about actually putting this fight on. These guys were great in their day and gave us some epic fights, I'd hate to see them come back and make fools of themselves.
Forties...Quote:

After watching that I have decided that I would not care to spar 52 year old Nigel Benn and I'm 27 with 7 years of boxing experience.Quote:
