Ha ha, this is very amusing.

It comes only a couple of months after Chris Eubank snr stated to the press that he'd like to come back and fight Nigel Benn. I gather that he contacted Benn too.

I wonder whether the final 'exhibition' might be with Eubank snr? Perhaps he'll treat the first few as tune ups.

Watch this space. Even at this stage and as an exhibition Benn vs Eubank 3 would generate alot of interest and cash. Certainly more than enough to pay for Nigel's emigration.....
