    I know boxers get bored and miss the limelight, but I was wondering why after all these years he suddenly decided to lace them up again.

    Then the link said he was supposed to get a million for the other fight and chose Nelson instead (he's probably getting paid more).

    Has there been any rematch/rubber match in which the bouts were this far apart? That's a good 16 years from the 2nd match.

    The Larry Holmes - Mike Weaver rematch was 21 years after their first fight.

    I just pray that the timekeeper keeps one eye on the time....and one eye firmly on where Fenech is, at all times.

    I missed that classic rematch, which was about 19 years too late.

    I'm surprised to see Fenech shaping up so quickly, but I guess I shouldn't be. He's still got too much of the game in him to let go, and that includes determination and a good work ethic. Still, 2 bottles of wine with his wife PER NIGHT?!?

    Lok, does he train with you? :lol:
