Paddy Kenny Challenges Wayne Rooney to Charity Fight Over Aguero Title Jibes

Rooney has said he aims to return to management rather than take boxing offers.

Overview

  • The former QPR goalkeeper urged Rooney to "sort it out in the ring" after years of ribbing about Sergio Aguero’s 2012 title‑deciding goal.
  • Kenny is already slated to fight ex‑defender Curtis Davies on October 18 in London at Pro Project Promotions’ A Night to Remember.
  • The charity card at the Grosvenor House Hotel will raise funds for Playskill, Sport in Mind, Willow Foundation and Helping Hands.
  • Kenny says an eight‑week camp, including four to five weeks of boxing, has helped him lose more than two stone.
  • Rooney was approached by Misfits Boxing but has previously said he wants to focus on returning to football management while also doing TV punditry.
