    Evidently K2 contacted Warren/Saunders with a "firm" offer



    "firm" because could mean anything

    While there has been no conversation with Eubank snr we have been in communication with Gennady Golovkin’s people, who have approached us with a firm offer of a unification fight with Triple G.

    I know Billy Joe has intimated he may not be quite ready for this but money talks louder than anything in boxing and such are the sums involved it is one certainly worth considering.

    We will be sittting down to talk about the future with Billy Joe once he has enjoyed his break. He has some really tasty options out there and whatever happens we will come up with something really special.

    Maybe why TJ fight hasn't been announced yet

    Still doubt it TBH

    Interesting. I had completely given up hopes on an undisputed champion.

      They're probably just going to use this as a negotiation ploy to anyone that wants to fight him.

        If Warren is calling it firm that's a good sign.

            K2 will have to overpay the **** out of BJS/Warren but I guess its possible.

            Wild guess:
            1.5M Purse
            Plus all of the UK TV money
            Plus some hot groupies from Kazakhstan
            Plus a few hundred thousand from the money Golovkin got from Cotto?

            BJS could end up walking away with 3 million dollars or so.

            Plus after he gets knocked out, he can always fight Eubank jr in a rematch (maybe on HBO as part of the deal?).

              They need to go all out because I can only imagine what the level of criticism will be if he fights Tureano Johnson next.

                  TJ > Saunders fight wise, only reason BJ more attractive fight wise is because of the belt.

                    Saunders is way better than Johnson.

                    Also Saunders has never been beaten. Never been dropped. Has an excellent chin and hard to catch clean. He's also just beaten Andy Lee who is a very decent fighter.

                    At this stage Saunders is far ahead of TJ.
