Frank Bullitt Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Following on from the Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor fight, Nigel Benn and Steve Collins have agreed to a rematch after 21 years! Here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/40434050 Interesting to say the least, does this mean we will see more money fights in future? How about Evander Holyfield vs. Mike Tyson III?

Annabella Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Don't think Evander has enough ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Id like to see a Benn-Eubank follow up after the Collins-Benn fight, genuine deep seated hate for each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muckyman Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 funnily enough, I just watched the Benn / Eubank / Collins fights again on youtube last week and wondered what the outcome would be if they met in the ring again, now they're older and 'wiser'. I'm not against it provided they are in good physical shape, but it would be sad if it was just two old, overweight, out of shape guys getting exhausted in a few minutes for a quick payday. Their choice of course, but sometimes its best to leave the legends where they actually were legendary..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 I don't think you will get Eubank involved as I believe he was Collins first choice but he couldn't be tempted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their choice of course, but sometimes its best to leave the legends where they actually were legendary..... My thoughts exactly, I don't see this as a great idea. Eubank was interviewed recently (just before jnr fought Abraham) and said he is training, keeping in shape etc so you never know. Probably all just for one last payday.
