socks 32,253 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I was just watching good morning Britain and he mentioned Nigel Ben and that he would have some interesting news when he got back to the uk ??????? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Seeker 3,048 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Yes I saw that, he's never going to have a rematch is he? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socks 32,253 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Now that would be a scrap worth paying for ..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 21,731 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 When he was coming out I'm a celebrity they told him Benn had tweeted saying he's up for it... Eubank said he was up for it so looks like it could be on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
king 12,031 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 There money won't last forever there bank accounts must be a bit low.i would imagine they would get a few million each to fight.if they do fight.big pay day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Steve Collins managed to get his boxing licence back at that age, and they seem in good enough nick to do so. Can't see the fight happening though. I wonder if they'd be in the same weight division these days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TUFFTY 1,484 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I was watching an interview with Nigel the other week. He was saying hes wife took control over hes money and invested wisely. He was also saying that he didn't have to do anything anymore. So he doesn't need to earn anything. He also said about eubank taking the spot light away from juniorand said he should take to back stage and you couldn't do that to your own son. So im finding this very hard to believe. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dabhand 887 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 He did say whilst in the jungle the ben keeps pestering him on twitter and that he motivated him And he lifted his top up and said im in the jungle and getting fit boy lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Much as I'd like to see them fight again, I think somehow it would be sad to watch. They are both obviously fit men, and the rivalry is still there to a degree, but the fact is they are both well past their prime and I for one would like to remember them at the peaks of their careers, not as shadows of their former selves.

Lenmcharristar 10,331 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Balls if rocky can still fight at 60 then they well able to do it, lol 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,437 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Honestly it's a rematch every boxing fan would love to see but I can't help agreeing with walshie (feck sake, twice already today and it's not even 10am! ). Maybe it'd be best to remember them as the legends they are and not as two grandads in the ring giving a performance that doesn't do either of their legacies justice. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Even the names that took mike ty sons scalp, when he fought his latter yrs, Danny Williams, kevin mcbride etc. they never had a nice cubes chance in hell of ever beating prime iron mike Edited December 2, 2015 by Lenmcharristar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marshman 7,758 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Got to be truthful i don't think I would like to see them fight again . It's nice to see them both fit and well at this age be a shame if one of them got hurt badly now . 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DogFox123 1,379 Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 The sad thing is boxers and money don't often mix too well, I can imagine they are both feeling the nip by now. They have both done enough for boxing that they still warrant a place in the sport, that certainly isn't in the ring though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
