But, having been present throughout Junior's meteoric rise, Eubank is eager to test himself in the squared circle once more.

And with the apparent announcement that Eubank's retirement is set to come to an end, fight fans only want to see round three of Eubank's rivalry with rival Nigel Benn, who has continued to campaign for the realisation of a grudge match.
Eubank knocked Benn out in 1990 before the pair fought to a draw three years later.
Eubank Jr. and Benn's son, Conor, have picked up where their fathers left off and have recently engaged in a war of words through the press.
It's a family feud the likes of which are seldom seen in boxing and fans are eager to witness Eubank vs. Benn III, judging by the replies to this morning's tweet.
