    Theres zero chance

    Nobody is sparking out bika in style least of all a guy 24 years out of the ring.

    But also much more expensive. Even Hopkins would be a dumb fight to take though. Can only hope he injures himself chomping on a carrot or lettuce leaf and the fight is called off.

    His whole demeanour is different, he struggles with his thoughts although he sounds pretty much the same.

    He always struggled to get his words out.

    Hopkins was the master at quitting!

    The Nigel one was funny though because he held the wrong ankle!!

    Benn also quit against Watson I feel.

    He was demented against McClellan. Dark scum.

    Yes the ankle in the Collins fight was shocking - he lost his heart and quit.

    Bully back then and he knows it, which is actually why he needs closure. He hates his former self.

    Couldn't get through Watson's guard or break Eubanks or Collins chins so had enough. Like Tyson against Holyfield, he hit Evander with his biggest hook just before the ear bite - Evander just stared at him.

    Chris Eubank Sr was the real warrior back then.

    Odds on Benn winning not worth a punt... I wonder what the odds on him being punched out of the ring Bhop style would be....
