    3.10 in the video "Junior is still being built as a fighter. He shouldn't be earning that money right now. he's still 2 fights away from being at that level"

    Snr gave the game away there. He was bluffing when he asked Hearn to get them GGG next - for the publicity, I'm sure - and when Hearn delivered, he needed a way out. Hence the crazy demands he started making.

    I agree with what he says - Jnr isn't ready for GGG. And as his corner doesn't have any towels to throw in, he would have taken a worse beating than Kell Brook if it had happened!

      Yes, but he also says, 'nobody will be able to touch him in 2 fights, even now'. And he says that's why they wanted the Golovkin fight already. So he's slightly ambiguous.

        Eubank blew his chance, he will only get a chance when Saunders, Jacobs and Canelo keep ducking and GGG has no mandatory obligations.

          We will see about that.

            I'm sorry you're experiencing this .
            No apologies necessary. I am one among many others who thoroughly enjoyed the event. Sadly, the same can't be said for you.

              Not sure Eubank deserves a shot yet, he seems a talented boxers but unsurprisingly him and his dad are hard to work with, making arranging fights with them less attractive to other teams.

              For me Eubank looks like he has something, he is a future champion (no doubt) but GGG is not the way to go for him, he needs to build himself up slowly take on some better opponents and then take GGG when he is ready and GGG is slowing

                Easy win for GGG. Hope you guys realise he intentionally lowered his defence and brawled like always because he knew brook had no power to affect him.

                  GGG extended his KO record to 23 consecutive knockouts and has now set his target to face Billy Joe Saunders (WBO middleweight champion) next to complete title unification.

                    That's what was televised in Poland and every other country in the world - except, apparently, for the UK. What the British fans saw, judging by the comments here, was Brook giving Golovkin a sound thrashing for 5 rounds until the ref stepped in and mercifully saved GGG from impending death.

                      This is how I feel as well.

                      I haven't seen but one Eubank Jr fight to be fair, but to me it seems like it's all hype on his last name.

                      Not saying he doesn't deserve the fight, but I wouldn't be too hyped for it other than it just being another GGG fight in general.
