Comments Thread For: Hearn: Eubank-Saunders II Is a Much Bigger Fight Than Eubank-Liam Smith II

[Casualfanforyou]

Will Saunders ever fight again? I thought Canelo hurt him for good.

yep. Damaged goods.

IDK about USA but in UK you don't make money selling fights to boxing fans. You make money selling fights to football fans who have a very minimal knowledge of boxing. Those guys have probably forgotten who BJS is by now but they do know Liam KO'd CEJ. Hearn would make much more putting CEJ back in with Liam but he knows that is it for this particular cash cow because Liam will KTFO CEJ again. If BJS wants to come back, there seem to be a lot of problems with making BJS v CEJ II. CEJ is a m/w who was recently willing to drain to 157 to fight Benn. If BJS comes back I'd be astonished if he fights below 168. CEJ would want to be the 'A' fighter, which I can't see BJS accepting, & does BJS get a 'warm up' before CEJ? I suspect Hearn would rather he go straight in, if only because that gives CEJ a decent chance but why would BJS agree to that?

Its sad to see how low Hearn as sunk. As a promoter he is a shell of his former self and he literally has no pride left as evidenced to this statement above and others like it recently

No, Eddie won't make any money if CEJ fights Liam again, because he doesn't promote either fighter. That's why this is so pathetic (and I generally like Eddie), because he's so desperate right now, he's trying to worm his way into some money by bringing a retired fat gypsy bum out to fight Eubank and claiming that's a fight everyone really wants to see.

No problem with it. Aren't both fresh off brutal KO losses? Even playing field

Saunders made a big money in Canelo fight and he got hurt badly. i doubt he will ever fight again.
