Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Eubank Moves Closer After 'Very Positive' Talks in London

2million maybe enough. Eubanks isn't a name really. Eubanks will become a name now being linked to ggg.

Once he beats, if he beats gig then he can get pay days he wants

Eubank Jr is a big name in the UK I would say.

Eubank Jr is a big name in the UK I would say.

But hasn't beat anyone really. So 2 mill might be ok. If you mention the name Eubanks the first thing to enter people's head might be senior and not know he had a son who is fighting

I think most people know Jr by now.

not saying £2million is not good money, definitely is. Don't know what he's made in his career, but I doubt it's £2million. So yeah.

But obviously he needs good money to fight GGG

In uk everyone knows Eubanks but worldwide I'm not sure? Don't know what Eubanks made in career as well but props 2 millions is by far biggest purse probs. I'm not sure ggg can pay floyd type figures. But he needs to be paid more either for the beating he will get, or paid less for the opportunity to beat gig however way you see it

Yeah of course it's in the UK I'm talking about. Really that's the only thing that matters in this case as this is where it'll be PPV.

Golovkin brings the worldwide audience.

Yes! Never thought I'd be so enthusiastic about a *meh* fight but I guess that says something about Golovkin's past comp. Even if it's only Eubank Jr, it's still a hell of a lot better than Dom Wade. Chris is scrappy and will at least put up a fight.

^^^^^this...better than guys looking like they are heading to their funeral.....He should be fighting guys coming to win like Eubank....Lemmie came to win as well but got outclassed....Eubank better train his ass off cause GGG can knock his block off with his shoddy defense

[kafkod]

nah, you are talking rubbish, as usual.....


“If he [Golovkin] wants to fight with me, let him come down to 155 and I’ll fight him whatever day he wants,” Canelo said.....

Canelo is letting Golovkin and the boxing world know that they can look forward to him giving the Kazakhstan fighter the conditions that he will need to come down in weight if he wants to fight him.


When Canelo selected Khan, it was CLEARLY obvious that he had no intention of moving to middleweight..... and when he dumped the belt, it was CLEARLY OBVIOUS to everyone - including Team Bull**** - that lil'G was going to have to live up to that "anyone from 154-168" schtick.....

..... and yet, Golovkin walked away from that HUGE fight without giving it a second thought, just like he did with Ward LMAO

Failing to be " objective ", is YOU conveniently forgetting about all that "anyone from 154-168" schtick..... and also YOU forgetting all that "A-side doe" crap that was os important to you when the discussion was Ward/Golovkin.

Yeah, thanks for that

You really do need to get out more

Canelo also said that 160 was "no problem" when he called GGG into the ring after the Khan fight. But this biased troll will ignore that and go with an earlier statement from Canelo because it fits his agenda better.

The fact is that no offer to fight GGG, at any weight, was made by Canelo and GPB during real negotiations.

They wanted to "marinate" the fight for another year, and when Golovkin refused to play along, Canelo handed in his belt.

Eubank's biggest purse so far was £500k, if I remember correctly, for the BJS fight.

He was paid £50k for Blackwell and probably around the same for Doran.

Lara???

GGG would body him beat time IMO.

Lara would easily outbox the plodding 1-dimensional Golovkin.

See how easy that was ?

Instead of you talking ****, and then me talking ****..... why don't YOU stop making silly excuses to justify why a perfectly reasonable fight shouldn't happen?

Funnily enough, I don't remember hearing any of those silly excuses when Golovkin selected the mid-level JMW Rosado.

[aboutfkntime]

Yeah, thanks for that
