Eubank said and I quote 'If i can't see any way of winning the fight against him then I won't take it' ?? And thats all I ever heard Eubank say on the matter.

Benn was a true people's fighter - I look back on his record and tend to disregard his two defeats (retirments) to Collins and his loss to the 'awkward' Malinga.

Never understood why a third Eubank fight didn't take place mind ?!? They still had unfinished business after the draw and could have sold Old Trafford out again and raked it in . Why didn't they ??
Roy had given Gerald Money anyway and didnt need to fight benn to give to him..

It took benn long enough to do a single thing.. Benn was just greedy more then likely worrying that roy would finish his career so he asked for a ridiculous purse
