I’m A Celebrity line-up boxing legend after Ally McCoist U-turn

Chris Eubank Jr is the first boxing legend to sign up for this year's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!

The Sun can exclusively reveal that the middleweight fighter has signed a huge money deal to appear on the hit ITV show, which begins in November.

Eubank Jr, 33, is the son of boxing legend Chris Eubank and is a former two-time world champion.

He has fought some of the biggest names in boxing, including Billy Joe Saunders, George Groves and James DeGale.

A source said: "Chris is a great signing for the show. He's a big name with a big personality."

"He's also a genuine boxing legend, so it will be fascinating to see how he fares in the jungle."

Eubank Jr's signing comes after former Rangers manager Ally McCoist was forced to pull out of the show due to work commitments.

McCoist had been in talks to appear on the show, but he has since decided to stay on as a pundit for talkSPORT and BT Sport.
