Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo Lost Face, Eubank Ready To Face Golovkin!

I hope not, but watching the video Eddie Hearn is clearly squirming in disbelief. Hearn has the deal set, now Eubank is moving the goal line in absurd fashion. They'll get paid regardless I don't know what they're worried about. I'm not sure how UK ppv works, but in the US the ppv company takes 50% off the net. If a fighter demanded they get a piece of the pie before that 50% cut, they'd go starve to death.

Hearn looked baffled. Hopefully they don't back out.

Considering that he is ranked in the top ten in the world by Boxrec, Ring Magazine, and several sanctioning bodies (among other various websites and writers), I don't really see how you can say that he's not world class. Being world class does not mean that you are the very best in the world, it means you are among the best in the world. I'm not even a Eubank fan (Sr or Jr), but I'm also not a hater.

I'm not a hater. I'm saying he is very talented but has only fought and lost a close fight to Billy Jo. He hasn't beaten an N'Dam, a Andy Lee, or a David Lemieux. Hell he hasn't beaten a Gabe Rosado on his resume.

All I'm saying is he's unproven. But still talent wise he's up their. Hopefully it's a good fight.

That didn't stop him from running scared and handing his belt to the man "We mexicans don't f$$ck around", "I'll fight him at 160"

It's NOT Canelo holding the fight up its OSCAR!!! Who knows POS like you won't buy the fight AND If Canelo loses or gets destroyed won't help out! You BAND WAGON fans hurt the SPORT! Just like your an EX-GS fan now Cavalier!

Did you say MONEY??? Everyone knows Loeffler is cheap as HELL! They'll pay another woman beating tomato can $500K like always and say Mohammed Ali ducked! They duck the sty ass pay...

Eubank just fought on an undercard and was paid a reported 50k to fight Blackwell.

500k would be a massive step up for him
