FULL Eddie Hearn Interview on Gennady Golovkin vs Carl Froch

[IronDanHamza]

It just seems he brings very few fans compared to Froch. Some haters, but again its all about Froch. Would most of those guys not show up for the hottest name in boxing, and a big time threat to knock the **** out to Froch? Lots of footage of Ggg from UK networks, lots of Brit fighters gushing about him (including Froch before fight signed), big in America

Few fans compared to Froch. Many fans compared to Golovkin (in the UK)

Going over old ground here that takes 1 brain cell to comprehend.

Take my advice.

Well at least you must agree Ggg would fetch Froch waaay more than 1-2m your compadre claimed. You got competing excuses flying around.

I never said Ggg does better than Degale, but still believe Froch vs Ggg would be big in the UK. Bigger than Bute, mostly cause Froch made himself bigger, also cause of Ggg.

I have idea what the financials are and who would get what.

You did say it would do better than Degale in the UK.

And like I said no one said Golovkin-Froch wouldn't be big. Froch vs anyone would be big. He's our biggest star.

Possibly bigger than Bute yes but that's arguable that did big numbers.

1-2m is laughable.

Ok if I said so i retract. Degale would probably be bigger but doubt much bigger. Again, Ggg would be on Hbo, big interest globally, p4p stakes.

The Bute fight went a long way in establishing Froch as the draw he is. Only picked up momentum with Kessler and Groves. Froch is bigger, Ggg is a bigger deal than Bute

So why are you still posting then, muggins?

If a fight with Golovkin doesn't do as well as James bloody DeGale then you know the money isn't there to make that fight.

If Golovkins mandatory challenger brought more to the table than Ward, then Golovkin wouldn't be facing Ward either.

Hell Golovkin fights guys for way LESS then what Ward would bring. At least DeGale is bringing £4m.

Why are you prolonging this beating? Do you like pain?

Most redundant thread in history. Unbelievable...

Nowhere near as redundant as your ridiculous SIG and all of your posts.

Tell us moar about how GGG would fight on PPV for 700k

[Daddy T]

I think froch GGG would be an amazing fight. Literally the fight I'd most like to see right now, but get real guys, neither guy is running or ducking the other. If the fight makes sense down the line as a big PPV event then it could well happen. Don't see why fanboys have to say this guy is ducking ... no this guy is ducking etc etc.

Thats no shame, youre telling me Degale Froch is huge in the UK due to Degales mainstream exposure. I doubt a ppv with Chavez Jr gets him even 4m pounds.

But fair enough, I thought he might wanna teach a lesson to overhyped mw with p4p standing in many rankings, willing to come to his home turf, televised on HBO. For less money but comparable. How glorious would it be if he Buted Ggg?

Mate. As dirk said, as I said, as IronDan has said. It's time to take a knee on this one.

The 1-2 million purse is compared to Froch vs Kessler where each guy split £5 million. That's from a dual PPV show.

GGG would at the very least want £1m to fight Froch, since there isn't enough money from hbo to secure him that he'd have to take some sky money, and since the PPV and ticket sales would be less than DeGale (by far probably) he'd end up with way less.

What is it you still don't get? HBO are not suddenly putting up mega money for a Froch non PPV fight.

What he wants is to fight in Las Vegas and at the moment, Golovkin can't make that dream a reality. Simple as that.
