I mean if he's as broke as they say...
Obviously he couldnt/wouldnt work his way up the British rankings against the younger guys despite anything else i dont think his pride would allow it, but for 'novelty' fights, maybe Steve Collins 3?? Listen if Azumah Nelson and Jeff Fenech can do it......
Eubank is now 42 years of age. Making a comeback would be a terrible move, and he would most end up likely getting seriouly hurt, and taking some years off his life.
He can make money of after dinner speaking etc, and maybe one day can train his sons.
And i think people may have made the situation worst than it probaly is, the hotel Eubank is staying in is costing him $222 a night, which is in his country the UK £150.
So he musn't be that broke yet. But he has lost 35 million, which is unbelivable.
Your right but i was thinking more of the novelty factor or exhibitions, Nelson and Fenech hadnt boxed in years and Jeff got massivly out of shape but they put on a pretty good fight
Sorry, I assumed the thread was talking about a serious comeback. Yeah, no reason why he couldn't step into the ring for an exhibition of some kind.
He hasn't boxed in donkeys years and definitely won't be making a comeback. His comparative age with the likes of Hopkins and Holyfield would only have any relevance if he'd continued to be active over the years.

Well he's 2 years younger than Hopkins.
And 4 years younger than Holyfield.

Eubank seemed to fade at quite a young age. Some people seem to be very good at a young age, and others at quite an old age. Perhaps it's just dedication and hunger with some people. Those Thompson fights were pretty brutal. I wouldn't like to see him come back.
Nah, I don't want this at all. Eubank was a legend to me, and I'd hate to see a faded version get hurt in a comeback.
Id hate to see it to, Chris style was all timing and countering, he would let his opponents come forward to him but at his age he just wouldnt have the reflexes to counter, but the guys got to do something otherwise he's going to end up in serious trouble if he isnt already, he needs an income.
