Comments Thread For: Frank Warren Gives Eubank Jr. BIg Offer For Saunders Rematch

[aboutfkntime]

deal...........................

cool ^^

remind me if that fight happens

I think (despite the article calling the figure in $s) both the Saunders - GGG offer and the Eubanks offer are in UK £s - so Saunders was offered apx $2.2 mil and Eubank has been offered about $1.25 mil, given the way the exchange rates have changed. You are right that Saunders, as the A side against CEJ may well end up banking as much as he was offered by K2 though, and we love a nice domestic dust-up over here so I could see it happening. Does depend a bit on the burgeoning UK network rivalry though, so we'll see how it pans out - quite probably it's just Warren firing shots, but you never know.

no, he was offered 1.5mil USD

but that is not the point, the point is..... that Team Golovkin not only low-balled him, they lied about the offer

Unclear on the first, I've seen both $s and £s quoted, though we've been through the second point before, at most it was a lie of omission - ie they never corrected the $4 mil figure, but you were unable to find a single quote of Loeffler or anyone else from GGGs camp actually claiming it was $4 mil. It still baffles me why the rectitude of team GGG is of such concern to you though.

Hang about didn't GGG offer Saunders double that?! Saunders should tell Eubank too f*** off, he beat him fair and square now Eubank is injured and irrelevant. You get what you deserve.

Am sure they would like to do so, problem is the fight is a money fight. So they really can't tell him to f off.

fair call

I just saw a video of Sanchez saying that he wasn't sure, but he heard it was 3mil

Don't the WBO have a say in this? They have some feller called Avtandil Khurtsidze as their #1 @ 160Lb, so surely he should be next for Saunders. Oh my mistake I forgot Frank Warren is the WBO!

Being rated #1 doesn't make him an automatic mando yet. His promoter - DiBella even said they need to fight an eliminator in order to become a mando.

Even then, look at the whole Sadam Ali situation... The WBO is as crooked as the WBA.
