Former Warrior and Dancing With The Stars celebrity Monty Betham is set to get back into the ring.
Betham, who is undefeated as a pro, will take on former All Black and sevens legend Eric Rush in a charity fight.
Betham jumped at the chance to take part in the fight, that will raise money for Youthline. Rush required a little more persuasion from promotor Danny Codling, as no one wanted to fight Betham.
And while the 'Fight of the Century' was all about the trash talk, Betham and Rush aren't doing any verbal sparring.
Betham is 13 years younger than Rush, and his fancy footwork could also give him the edge.
The fight is set for October 31, but before that Betham will be lacing up the footy boots for the tsunami match at Eden Park on Sunday.
