    Hearns didn't say the Eubanks rejected the contract. They were in negotiations as to what was going in to the contract. When the Eubanks counter offered and demanded extremely non-standard clauses such as operational control then they, not Hearns, were rejecting the possibility to fight, just the same as if they would be if they demanded $10 million for the fight. Certain things are not possible and one of those is a fighter under a normal contract choosing the undercard and even the purses of the fighters on the undercard. Absurd.

    But go on believeing the notorious bullshytters why not.
    Hearn is just as bad a shyster, in fact, that's his job description. I've said the Eubanks and Hearn are all known liars, you're picking sides and going with the liar whose story you want to believe.

      I'm sure K2 is aware of this, which is why fights like GGG/Brook are even being made to begin with. It seems like their mind was made up about getting GGG to the UK, regardless of the quality of opposition. This mismatch only pays off if the UK fans actually come out and support it. This fight should flop, but we'll see what happens.
      The Brit fight scene is much more fanatical than the US fight scene. Fans come out to support their fighters and have a good time. So I suspect that an event flop is out of the question especially with a strong under-card.

      GGG is fighting against time. His early career was screwed up in Germany and he has only really been on a roll since he signed up with K2. Before that he was largely unheard of. He is in the early stages of cashing out.

        See my earlier post >>>> None of us here, as far as I am ware, has full knowledge of the facts. But what you do is try to piece together what is being said by whom, history, track record for lying or telling the truth, what other actors say. Also, if someone says something outrageous and it is never denied then that is indicative.
        Of course, if you have an agenda you probably don't want to do any of the above. Just follow your agenda as it is easier and doesn't neccesitate any brain power.

          People are focusing too much on the match-up, and not the event/spectacle. I'm sure Hearn will try to put together the best under-card he can. Hearns and K2 are simply using each other: GGG finally makes his UK debut at the O2, Hearn can say that he brought over one of the most popular fighters, while Brook gets a good pay-day and a huge challenge. For all the outrage this match-up is getting, I'm sure many of us will tune in for the hell of it. I didn't care about Canelo/Khan, but I still tuned in to see Khan get KO'ed. Also, if Eubank really wants GGG, then this won't be the last we've heard of him. After GGG beats Brook, Eubank will jump in the ring and cause a scene.

            Empty reply that tries to mirror what I just said, then the obligatory intelligence insult at the end which is the sure sign of a frustrated individual who can't back his argument.
            Bravo. I think we're done here.

              Props to Kel. We all thought he was full of s hit when he said if Khan will fight Canelo he'll one up him and fight GGG at 160. These fighters from the uk above 126 got some serious stones these days. It's some weird twilight zone stuff right now. I bet Kel clinches on some B Hop/Ward levels or more.. Maybe even Wlad vs Povetkin level lol


              Honestly if the ref allows it and he holds up I don't dislike Kel's chances skill wise. This isnt like Khan Canelo where Canelo is also the significantly better talent lol. Kel is a stud imo and this is so weird I want to see it. He's soooo lean at 147 though. How will he look at 160 in just two months?

                Will be worth tuning in just to see that.

                  I've seen you skip out of many a discussion like this - you come in contentiously. Get called on it. Then try to take the high ground.

                  I'm interested in seeing who is telling the truth. If Hearn is telling the truth in this instance it reflects really badly on the Eubanks.

                    Brook hasn't fought since March. At best, he'll probably look like a LMW. He's lucky that GGG isn't tall like Andrade or Ramirez.

                      Hi Hearn, never knew you post on here. Yeah I would rather wait for all the facts than believe your thin brains...
