Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Manager Warns Eubank: Back Up Talk - Sign Contract!

[NEETzsche]

If Golovkin had what Eubank Jr needed the fight would be taking place on a K2 card in America. GGG is the one that needs a fight, not Eubank Jr. Eubank Jr has fought 4 times in 8 months. And by the time this fight comes around it'll be his 5th fight in a year. Eubank Jr has plenty of options, including a lucrative rematch with BJS. Canelo is the challenger but the champ is travelling to him. GGG is the champ but he's travelling to the challenger. That's why Oscar was right about the 90/10 split.

i don't think eubank has ever made more than a million in a single fight before

and BJS and warren would demand a lot more from eubank and hearn than GGG and loeffler are

I agree to few points you make except the bolded.. You make it sound as if Eubank is the guy with credentials here, he aint.. Golovkin has what Eubank needs, plain & simple.. As i said in my last post.. 3mil pounds is more than what Eubank himself has made for a fight, ffs the guy fights on undercards & is getting to headline on a main event.. Yeah Eubank is bringing in more money because of Sky & Matchroom, without which Eubank is nothing.. At the same time Eubank should be given a thumbs up for taking the fight..

Anyway, the Eubanks showed grit and resolution by signing Hearn with a view to this fight... It's, of course, about big money for them too, but at least they chose this dangerous shortcut...

Why are all these MW putting GGG on such BS

I mean everyone wants to fight until it is time to fight, and then they no longer want to fight.

... the Eubanks seem to want this fight.

When it comes to GGG every opponent becomes a businessmen because no other fighter out there terrorizes a whole division like that that nobody gives them a chance to win.

Basically everyone around GGGs weight is using GGG to get some attention, Brook, Ward and his trainer, Saunders, Ramirez, Canelo, Jacobs, Lara etc.

Eubank is just following suit but he put himself in that corner by making such a huge noise, now he better signs or will be forever declared as that greedy coward.

I honestly feel a fighter should be well compensated for a fight because it could be his last, but some guys demand more money without bringing much to the table & ignoring the fact that they aren't a big draw.. BJS is one of them.. I used to love boxing when prospects din't care how much they were payed to fight the champ because the title meant more than the $. As they say, if you are confident in your abilities, you will always come out on top & the money will follow when you are the top..

At this point, I'll take any article on GGG that doesn't start with, 'Golovkin's Trainer Warns Eubank...'

Yep.. I agree & he has Respek for that.. Alsi the fact that Eubank brings more to the table & him demanding more is fine imo.. Hopefully this puts more pressure on BJS by the media & UK fans & he realizes that he isnt a big draw who can sit & demand what he feels like.. I heard he is fighting on the undercard of Canelo-Smith.. Way to go..

The B-side should be grateful someone is offering them a fight and money. When you're the B-side you sign right away. The A-side has to handle the logistics of the fight. GGG needs to sit back and relax while the bosses get everything together. If he had anything to offer Eubank he wouldn't be travelling to the UK to fight him.

@GGGBoxing @EddieHearn my pen is in my hand ready & waiting to sign as soon as I get the contract... don't you worry about that.

Yeah, li'l B side ain't got nothing to offer Eubank. Chris Jnr could sell out the 02 Arena and make $3/4 million against ANYBODY.

Eubank better not punk out after running his mouth so much.

They aren't demanding much because they need the fight. Sure Eubank Jr wouldn't make nearly as much fighting the Doran's of the world, but Hearn could still get him fights on Joshua or the Brook undercard and make decent money. Eubank Jr is stepping up taking a chance ******** on himself to become a superstar. This fight was offered to GGG, not the other way around.
