    Yes but back then it was not.

    Cant understand why they don't let it go! (in the words of the song that my granddaughter sings endlessly)

    I think this is embarrassing for both Connor and Chris junior, they should tell their dads to fucking grow up and butt out. Its worse than football dads at the local boys game.

    I don't see this a silly at all.... Benn 52 and Eubank 49


    How old is Hopkins?


    Benn is in great shape and this would embarress ALOT of current "World Champs" in terms of ticket sales and PPV buys.


    Would easily sell out Wembley Stadium twice over and I think would be a great fight still.


    Ive heard that Eddie Hearn is being approached to promote this and both fighters are bang up for it and that it is also very close to being a done deal.


    Let them fight I say and you just know the old rivalry is still gonna be right there once the bell goes

    These 2 may be in good condition but they are not fighting fit. Benn left quitting after Collins and Eubank was stooped by Thompson. Are they going to take the punishment or run away with the money?

    I don't believe for one second that Eubank has any intention of having a rubber match with Benn.

    He has always known how to push Benn's buttons & he knows that Benn would jump at it.

    The world does not need to see two rickety 50 year olds trying to resurrect a rivalry from a quarter of a century ago.
