Former British heavyweight king Joe Bugner is back in the big time, on hit TV show 'I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here'.
Bugner, now 59, got the call when dancer Camilla Dallerup quit the jungle show after only a few days, it was announced on Wednesday.
The Strictly Come Dancing star was struggling with exhaustion over the past
few days and had been feeling unwell.
The Hungarian-born Bugner had his last professional bout in 1999, and retired with a record of 69-13-1.
He controversially beat Henry Cooper on points to take the British title in 1971, and twice dropped unanimous decisions to Muhammad Ali - the second time in a world title challenge in Kuala Lumpur in 1975.
Bugner also lost on points to Joe Frazier at Earls Court in 1973, and was stopped by Frank Bruno in a massive showdown at White Hart Lane in 1987.
