Comments Thread For: Golovkin Promoter: Hearn Couldn't Deliver Eubank, Offered Brook

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

If you would've told Tom Loeffler this time a week ago that he would've finalized a Gennady Golovkin-Kell Brook fight Friday, he would've been about as surprised as the rest of us were when it officially was announced.

Sr's to blame for GGG accepting a fight with a welterweight?

[gmc_rfc_06]

It's disrespectful to the sport to fight welterweights at 155 you know, its only respectful to the sport when its another 5lbs heavier.

K2 fault doe

He is to blame for Eubank vs Golovkin not happening. Golovkin/K2 signed their end of the deal, Eubank Sr started making crazy unrealistic demands from Hearn that couldn't happen. This of course followed Canelo & Saunders turning down Golovkin and Jacobs not being interested at the moment, so K2 eventually got to the point where they decided they'll take what they could get from Hearn. Not the move I would have made though.

WTF is Brook on? I thought this was a joke. He's in a perfect position at welterweight and on the verge of being top dog there. What makes him think he can really stand in the ring more than 2 rounds with GGG? Who's advising this guy? He must have serious trouble making 147 but for all that he should've just called out Canelo I'm pretty sure they would of fought Brook before Liam..

I understand the frustration of GGG's team but I don't like this fight. It's a rerun of the Canelo Kahn rematch. Unlike Kahn Brook has whiskers but that may not help him. The last thing he needs is a beating. I hope he gets paid a ton.
