North East boxing fans have something special coming soon!

Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank will square up for a third and final time.

This time it will be across a table rather than in the ring as they come head to head at the Lancastrian Suite in Dunston, Gateshead at 11am on October 17th.

'The Trilogy Tour' will see the two british boxing icons talk about their encounters in the nineties and take fans questions.

Promoter Steve Wraith tells us:

"I have worked with both Chris and Nigel in the past but they have never done one together until now. This is a great opportunity for fight fans to get their photo in the middle of undoubtedly two of the greatest middleweights of our lifetime."

Tickets are on sale at newcastlelegends.com and on wowcher and groupon.
