    His **** fight 60k ppv!? That is more considering that they had issues mid way through televising the fight..
    The source for that is Eddie Hearn. He said one of his sources told him 60k, another told him 80k. Even if it's 80k, that's just over £1million, so after ITV take their 50%, and the undercard get their purses, there wouldn't be much left for the Eubanks. Price vs Hammer was an EBU title fight, and HWs want paying.

    Edit: I wasn't that impressed with Eubank myself .. he was too wild and sloppy. And he never came close to decking Quinlan, despite hitting him with everything bar the corner stools. But casual fan friends of mine who watched it on YT were raving about him. "He won every round doe! And that guy was a world champion!"

    Casuals!

      May vs PAC II and May vs Mcgregor is much bigger. Hell, I think Chavez Canelo is bigger.
      Jacobs could be a tougher opponent, he's got more size, speed and power than Canelo. But he's chinny and that's not a good thing vs GGG. Ideally we get both fights

      I guess im talking relevant fights involving active fighters. 2 of those involve a retired fighter, one of which is a joke fight. Chavez Canelo won't come close

        It is the best fight but Canelo needs to get his a$$ whopped for being a b***h. He ain't getting out of this beating.

          Someone will get hurt in a Golovkin/Canelo match up. And someone wants to see that guy get hurt.

            well GGG was the interim champion, so canelo had to fight him or run away scared.

            he chose run away scared.

              3g's fans knows credibility runs through canelo. their styles would make for an exciting fight.
              from canelos fans perspective, 3g is the boogeyman. boogeymen need to be terminated....when they become bothersome.

                That makes absolutely no sense. It's not Canelos fault cotto won and defended his belt at a catch weight.

                  Well then, let's just call it what it is. Canelo is ggg's money fight. There's nothing bigger for him. That's why you want it.

                  You want it now so the offer is, 15 million.

                  ggg and his team honestly don't want it now. They believe they're better than 15 mil. So let it marinate and ask for a solid guarantee and upside. As long as they keep winning, that means more money.

                  Canelo is currently preparing to take out the son of the legend ggg has tried to carve his career out of. ggg is currently getting ready for the biggest fight in the MW division in years as well as MW supremacy.

                  So really, it's a logical question. Why do people want it so bad they want it now? It's really only a money fight. One with a high percentage of a pre-drawn conclusion.

                  The end of 2018 early 2019 would definitely make this the biggest fight I boxing considering they both continue to win.

                    They can't have it now lol. That's on Canelo, they wanted it 6 months ago. Sept is 3 fights ahead, first off their biggest ppv yet. That should clarify things. If they don't hit 200k they should take the flat fee, but they may well beat Canelos last ppv.

                      Canelo's one of the biggest stars right now. And he does hold the RING middleweight title. GGG is considered the best middleweight in the world. It's the most interesting match-up at 160 besides GGG-Jacobs. After that happens, there is no bigger fight right now at 160. However, it won't stay hot forever. Jermall Charlo should add some excitement and there's always BJS and Eubank if we can ever get them into the ring with GGG or Canelo. And the weight isn't a problem. Canelo's about to fight at 165.
