    Wouldn’t be surprised to Sky bill a “father and son boxing card”. Has that ever happened before where father and son boxed on the same bill? Chavez and his son maybe...

    They say a break does the body some good, I don’t think they meant a 26 year break though Nigel.

    It happened before.. Even better than that, a Dutch father once boxed his son on a card because the opponent of the son pulled out...

    Jr beat Sr by second round TKO.

    Wouldn’t mind seeing Big John Fury v Tommy Fury at a catchweight.

    F**k it, throw him in with either Callum at LHW or catchweight and watch him very quickly realise that a comeback was a big mistake.

    If this happens in the UK then it will just be an Exhibition type fight, Nigel Benn has participated in these before, he did one a few years back against Andy Flute.
