Comments Thread For: Hearn: Kell Brook Signed To Fight Gennady Golovkin in 24 Hours

Amazing turn of events - sometimes doing business can be this easy.

Yea, there will always be a haze around the truth when it comes to negotiations like this but it certainly had the appearance that they were negotiating and Hearn pulled the rug out, IMO. When he says that the Eubanks rejected it, it reeks of a situation where people are going back and forth in a negotiation, as is normal, and one guy pulling out for a better deal.

The Eubanks are notorious bullshytters but I genuinely believe that they were expecting either a contract or a counter offer to the terms.

Could be. I think Sr is delusional and is a bad manager for his son. He really shouldn't be in control of his sons career like this, training, cool that's great but this micro managing is too much. From what Hearn said he wanted to control the ticket prices, double than Joshua's fights. That's Hearn's word of course but everything I've seen from Sr is delusional talk. He acts like his son is him, it's weird.

*** GGG, Canelo, Khan , Brook.
Its all bout the money. I dont pay to see others get rich, I pay to see the best fight the best.

Yea, it's bizarre for sure. And, the older Jr gets, the more like his father he becomes. Real couple of oddballs. Jr could really use another coach and a professional management company.

Absolutely. Jr has some talent too, good speed, is a work horse and appears to be durable. But he may never reach the next level if he's hampered down by Sr for much longer. Already a few missed opportunities (Saunders rematch seemed like a no brainier, lined up to fight Jacobs as well and now this debacle with Golovkin).

[Straightener]

Man it would be epic if brook pulls the upset !!

I don't think GGG's size is gonna be the problem it's the ridiculous power he has in either hand

Will be a good fight while it lasts hopefully brook lands some bombs of his own

[Slowhand]

This is a ****** fight, but Brook gained a lot of fans just by signing (including me). Brook has nothing to lose and by now GGG probably just wants to fight the first guy brave enough to enter the ring. - How the fcuk can fights like this get sanctioned by the ABCs?

[rrrobi]

I would see Roman Gonzalez versus Anthony Joshua. Hearn, you make the deal?

Eubank Jr. is very good, more so than a lot of you Americans are even aware, I've noticed.
