So what? Loeffler could still have asked about him ..
Not only do they ignore that, but no one puts two and two together. Dirk was crying about Tom talking to DeGale's manager - Haymon. DeCubas just talked about Tom talking with Haymon, yet Tom doesn't bring it up. Loeffler doesn't discuss actual negotiations in order to pander some obsessive/compulsive internet trolls. During the whole Alvarez negotiations, Tom never touched on any of the details of what was going on, when he could've easily put GB & Canelo on blast. It's called professionalism.
Furthermore, how pathetic is it to go on Twitter and interact with a real person using a fake name?
Wasn't like Brook was negotiating a fight or anything when GGG came calling.
The fight fell apart after the brexit. Vargas/TR upped their demand from $1.5mill to $2mill. Hearn was going to take a loss at that point. Hearn was going to take another loss with the Eubank's either backing out or asking for the moon. That's how we got Golovkin/Brook = money grab.
I was answering somebody who said that Loeffler made a bad move taking this fight.
If you think it's a disgraceful fight to make you should be criticising Kell Brook's team, not Loeffler. Golovkin signed to fight Eubank Jnr, it was Eddie Hearn who brought Brook in to replace him.
Personally, as a Kell Brook fan, I'd rather he wasn't fighting GGG. But he's a grown man with a very experienced team behind him, and it's their job to look after Kell, not Loeffler's.
GGG absolutely deserves some criticism here. this is another case of GGG complaining about not getting the fight he wants but willingly giving that fight up for money. The only difference is this time instead of step aside money its a 90/10 glorified sparring session.
We need not look at this solely through the perspective of Brook and Hearn to try and make this garbage acceptable.
