I´m pretty sure this is news to GGG..

eubank going straight for the old guy, i guess he has a belt & name value so yeah perfect if he could beat him, which he could do now i think, so good plan from eubank for his career if he can pull it off, will need to offer ggg decent cash i would think

[Satir]

So many years have past and we still talking about this fight, Eubank needs an elite victory, an elite guy on his résumé, how thé hell have you lost to à shot Groves, inexcusable

What the promoter is really saying "Liam Williams take our fight offer or we are going with GGG"
The same tactic Canelo tried to use against Plant, mentioning going to light height but Plant
called his bluff.

Interesting they show absolutely no interest in fighting Andrade though they can get him anytime they want.

In other words you want GGG to go 15 lbs out of his weight class so he'll lose. Funny they never bothered Hagler in the 80's to go to 175 to face Mike Spinks, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Marvin Johnson and Victor Galindez . Why? Because it would've been career suicide. Hagler was smart and fought guys his own size, or smaller, ie, Duran , Leonard . Middleweights are middleweights , Light heavies are light heavies. Huge massive difference.

Or, maybe he would win? Roy Jones Jr., Bernard Hopkins, and Canelo did it!

The only thing that would make me care about GGG again is if he moved up to 175lbs to challenge Beterbiev.

I would favor Liam Smith and John Ryder over Eubank. Felix Cash would be a good domestic fight. Eubank has never been the best in the UK. Second rate domestic fighter far from world level. The best in the UK have been getting destroyed when stepping up to world level.

Good point regarding British champion Felix Cash, However I'm sure Eubank would consider it a step back.

As we all know, boxing is a business. Both have a name so people will watch.
