    Stupid and silly. The old man needs to just stay behind his son and stay out of the limelight.

    2005 was declared bankrupt not paying £1.3 miilion to tax man.

    Junior is faster and fitter than his dad but not a harder puncher and probably not as good chin.

    If they can be cleared to fight and they need money/people will watch it, whatever. It has nothing to do with the sport of boxing and proves nothing obviously. They definitely did leave things unfinished though, haven't watched it in ages but I feel like Benn outfought him and won the rematch.

    I would quite like to see them fight again there obviously old and fucked and there both around the same age, not as if there wanting to fight young fighters. It's just a one off, bring it on I say

    Yeah, give em big gloves. Shorten the rounds. Whatever, let them.

    Both are probably fitter than some current journeymen and would both pass medicals unless there are some underlying brain injuries that may show up in a scan.

    They can always go the Danny Williams route and get Latvian licences

    Its funny the concern for both when we have a currently active Bernard Hopkins whos older than Eubank looking to fight Golovkin!!

    At least Benn and Eubank are on the same page. Long time out, similar age and both kept in shape.

    We have a welterweight fighting the guy who beat the "lineal" middleweight champ who was not a middleweight and now talks about going back to welterweight. These two must be rolling over watching what's become of it. If they want to do a hometown flashback or some charity exhibition slash rivalry let em make it.

    Benn vs Khan. Make it happen!

    never understood why a third fight didn't happen after the draw

    never made sense

    The reason why there was no 3rd fight was mainly because they had different promoters, channels and the public was not as interested as the rematch was not that exciting and would not wait 3 years for another fight.

    Hearn said if Benn had stayed with him then he would have made Benn v Eubank one of his first ppv fights.
