this hadn't crossed my mind. I was all for the fight but thought of paying Ppv is abit offputting. If it was sold as a charity match free to air it would get significantly more support but Ppv is a clear money grab and exploitation.
i remember watching the 1st two fights and they left a sour taste. Never dreamt we'd get a 3rd fight over two decades later. 1st one Benn quit afew seconds after an ankle injury which looks worse since Haye continued fighting with a similar problem. Second time he just outright quit on his stool which wasn't consistent with his warrior mentality. The fire had gone and he's now saying it took 20 years to get it burning again
collins reason is as honest as it can get but he did give up his belt because he was scared to fight Calzaghe and I remember that he attempted a comeback some years later but fainted in training and couldn't get licensed. At 52 I'm confused how his health would've improved. I think he got eubank and Benn at the right time but at 4-0 in those fights he deserves credit.
the fight itself won't be much fun to watch. I rewatched the 1st two since this 3rd was announced and was reminded how sloppy those fights were. Styles didn't mesh and both guys missed a lot. So a 3rd fight can only be uglier. Let's see how it takes shape in the coming weeks but I have a feeling eubank jnr will have an itv Ppv rival
