Legendary British boxers Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank have been linked with a third and final fight at different times over the last year, but it appears the ‘Dark Destroyer’ is getting tired of all the talk at this point, and just wants to fight.
Both men now have sons that are in the pro ranks, Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn, but it appears the competitive fire in each of them still burns themselves, despite their advanced years.
Nigel Benn has fired shots this weekend on Twitter to his former rival and isn’t pulling any punches:
