I'd assume they're going in the direction of a Billy Joe Saunders rematch to get a W and build up Eubank Jr. some more.

Lots of dangerous opponents floating around the division, not even including the elephant in the room from Kazakhstan.

Excellent news.

Great platform, but the Eubanks will have been smart in making it a flexible contract.

[G_Child_123]

It looks like they are gonna go after Daniel Jacobs, if you take into account Hearn's pally deal with Haymon.

Well it won't be... John Ryder (fights May 28). Matthew Macklin (just retired).

Jorge Sebastian Heiland or Tom Doran to climb the WBC rankings?

Just 5 weeks out, probably won't be anyone good. Be nice to see him fight N'Dam, but that's probably too big a step for him. Beating Khurtsidze would make him #1 to Saunders.

Eubanks Jr is ready to start stepping up vs better Competition, he gets better and better with every fight, I think he absolutely DESTROYS BJS in a rematch

[PittyPat]

Definitely no Saunders rematch this year, then... Good. That fight, if any, needs time to "maaaaaarinate". Eubank should defend his British title a few times, maybe get the Lonsdale belt, and then look to get a shot against Jacobs or Golovkin in 2017.

[gmc_rfc_06]

Eubank just tweeted;

'Eddie Hearn, bring us Golovkin'

[Eastcoast]

Hmmm, only a 2 fight deal?

So they fight in June then September. No way they take GGG.

C2 promotions are delighted to have signed a 2 fight deal with @MatchroomBoxing & a possible mega fight in Sep@EddieHearn secure @GGGBoxing
