Boxing legend Chris Eubank touches down in Mayo at Knock Airport
The airport posted a picture of the former WBO middleweight and super-middleweight title winner on their social media pages. "You never know who you'll bump into at Ireland West Airport. Delighted to have Chris Eubank arrive at the airport earlier today,' it said. Known for his flamboyant persona and distinctive style, Mr Eubank recorded 45 wins (23 by knockout), five losses, and two draws from 52 fights in his professional boxing career. He has remained a celebrated figure in British boxing since retiring in 1998. He is the father of five children, including Chris Eubank Junior, who is also a professional boxer. Mr Eubank is not the first high-profile name to grace the landing strip at Ireland West Airport Knock. A few days previously, the airport welcomed comedian Jason Manford, who flew in for the start of his Irish tour. In the past decade, the airport has hosted former US President Joe Biden and the late Pope Francis. In 2015, the airport welcomed Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher, whose mother, Peggy, hails from nearby Charlestown. Hopes are high in Charlestown that the reunited Gallagher brothers will visit their mother's hometown when Oasis travel to Ireland for their sold-out Croke Park shows in August.
