I must have missed when Nigel Benn was inducted into the Hall Of Fame.

Oh yeah, because he wasn't.

Happy for his son getting KOed for a pay check

I don’t think we need to make this fight happen just cause of legacy if it doesn’t even make sense. We’re not living in Creed 2 here. Conor won’t get much out of fighting Eubank Jr.
He should be focusing on climbing his way to the top of the Welterweight ladder and getting a shot at the title.

Will obviously watch any and all boxing freak shows with semi-competent fighters, but must say that Benn is actually promising and should save the money-maker/ non-upwardly mobile fights till late career.

Eubank jr? He can do what the **** he wants, he’s been and gone nowhere.

Come on Benn, don't turn into Brook or Khan chasing paydays just to get stopped. Challenge the welters and move up in Rankings.

He was inducted into the WBC Hall of Fame in 2013.......

He was inducted into the WBC Hall of Fame in 2013.......

Right.

So he's not a Hall of Famer then.

I'm sure Connor can step up. But eubanks has mixed with better fighters

[STREET CLEANER]

Don't even know why they are entertaining this. A WW against a proven MW. Don't know why people want to live old times when these two fighters couldn't be more different than their parents. They are selling the nostalgia.
