        Bernard Hopkins maybe? It's been less than 3 years since he fought, LHW makes sense, and the ages are close.

          I can’t see him taking on Froch. Likely someone closer to his own age. Jones or Hopkins makes sense. Possibly Eubank Sr., or a long shot of Calzaghe?

              There aren't any respectable commissions, so it'll get made

                It’s probably not a horrible fight if it’s Bika. No worse than a lot of the mismatches that are televised lately.

                  Really? Where have you heard that?

                  I honestly think that would be dangerous, Benn was shot in 1996, and Bika is still an active fighter. Bika would absolutely murder him IMO

                    Nigel Benn must be desperate for the limelight or another payday.

                    A “comeback” at 55 makes zero sense. The guy was shot to bits by 1996, unless it’s a rematch with McClellan this could be very detrimental to Benn’s health.

                      Yeah I’ll be amazed if this is sanctioned or Benn even gets a licence.
