Gary Neville proposed a charity boxing match against Jamie Carragher, with Roy Keane making an instant prediction.

Neville and Carragher enjoyed legendary playing careers before becoming some of the best pundits in football.

They are among the stars of The Overlap and in the latest episode, they discussed fighting each other for charity.

Carragher began by referencing a charity boxing event, pitting ex-footballers against each other.

An event in October saw ex-Arsenal star David Bentley face former Chelsea midfielder Jody Morris, with the latter emerging victorious.

Keane asked Carragher if he'd be open to a charity fight against a fellow ex-pro to which he replied: "I don't think I would."

Jill Scott then interjected, asking the panel for their dream opponent.

Carragher immediately pointed at Neville, who asked how many viewers would tune into a bout between the former England internationals on Sky Sports.

The panel, including Ian Wright, were all in agreement that Neville vs. Carragher would be blockbuster viewing.

Wright then asked: "Are you two going to get involved?"

Before they could answer, Keane weighed in, offering his prediction for a potential scrap between Neville and Carragher.

He sided with Carragher, saying: "No, but that wouldn't be a fair contest. Honesty, you'd struggle obviously."

Pointing at Carragher, Keane added: "You would... you know he's a done a bit."

Wright responded by backing Neville: "You're underestimating Gary's natural power."

Keane hilariously hit back: "I'm not."

The group then discussed how a proposed fight would go down, with Carragher and Keane suggesting Neville would use his size to hold onto the Liverpool legend.

The interaction ended with the ex-Manchester United defender admitting that he has never been involved in a fight, revealing: "I've never had a fight in my life.

"I'm surprised no one's ever hit me," he added, causing Carragher to burst out laughing.
