Been announced that Benn and Eubank are going to fight each other in the ring. It is serious and not a gimmick, as both have kept fit and in good shape. They need the boxing authority to sanction it first, but if not they will get it on somehow. Can't see it happening myself, but I'm intrigued to see who would win ? Me verses Houch in the ring at the foot of Malvern Hills is in the pipeline, sponsored by Saga !

Is it an actual fight? Aren't they both knocking on 60

I was hoping it was their sons and not a farce like this

My initial reaction was that it would be Connor vs Jr, not the old blokes. Jesus. Some morons will pay their £20 ppv fee for it though.

No. Just pride etc. Last fight was a draw, so want to settle it. Benn is 54 Eubank 52.

Watched a recent clip of Benn training/sparring. Still fit and very fast.

I train at the same gym as Eubank Jnr and his dad comes in pretty often and trains, he has looked after himself very well!

Jnr? To a certain extent but he has his dedicated team, I have sparred against him a couple of times for 'fun'.

Farce.

Should never be licensed.

Hopefully doesn't get licensed but then boxing has already tarnished its credibility as a serious sport with the McGregor fight

Did you say after that you went easy as he relies on it for his career? Didn't want to hurt him too much.
