EDDIE HEARN has teased a boxing match between England stars Declan Rice and Jude Bellingham.
The boxing promoter has suggested that the stars “secretly” would “love” to have a fight.
Rice and Bellingham are team-mates for the Three Lions and were a part of the team that reached the Euro 2024 final.
However, Hearn would be keen to pit them against each other in a boxing ring.
Hearn has insisted that he has spoken to the likes of Rice, Bellingham and James Maddison about boxing.
He has suggested that they could take part in a charity event similar to Soccer Aid.
He told DAZN: “All the guys in that team, and I know quite a few of them, all love their boxing.
“Dec Rice is a massive boxing fan. James Madison, I know he’s not in the squad, but he’s another big boxing fan.
“Jude Bellingham, they’re all big strong boys.
“I was actually speaking to the guys at Soccer Aid about doing a Boxing Aid because all of those guys, and a lot of those big name celebrities, secretly they’d love to have a fight.

“And I think we could create something for charity that would be amazing to watch.
“Imagine if, and I’m not sure the clubs would be happy, but those boys in the England squad facing off against each other.
“It would be wild. Maybe one day. “
Rice, 25, has met many boxing stars since making his breakthrough as a Premier League footballer.
In 2020, met Anthony Joshua and Floyd Mayweather backstage at Wembley Arena.
The Arsenal midfielder had a picture with the pair after watching the Brit knockout win over Kubrat Pulev.
