Comments Thread For: Hearn Details How Eubank Jr. Lost Golovkin Shot Over a Photo

[MulaKO]

nahh, just listen to this. You KNOW 'English' was trying to get gangsta on Dad. I even edited it for Chris' voice.

“Then Chris Sr looked at me and said, ‘Edward, there’th one more thing. In your father’th office ith a picture of me punching Nigel Benn. It altho hath the official scorecardth from the fight, you must remove the picture and give it to me. If you do I will thign the deal.’

"So I’m like, ‘Okay, I’ve just given you a load of money and everything you want, and now you want a picture off the wall in my Dad’s office?’ ‘Yeth, thith ith correct.’ I said, ‘Okay, sounds alright to me.’ Went into my Dad’s office, ‘Alright Dad, it was quite painful, but we’ve done the deal. Just one thing, you know that picture over there, can we have that?’
“He said, ‘Well what do you mean?’ I said, ‘Well Eubank said if you give him that picture the deal’s done.’ He said, ‘Tell Eubank to go and stick it up his behind, that is my favourite picture in the world and there is no way I’m removing that from my wall.’



Chris has to be referring to Benn/Eubank II which ended in a draw. He probably thinks there's evidence of a fix in that photo.

This right here ^^^^^^ is what’s wrong with the fughin world
It’s easy for mr Revelated , who is sitting at home behind the protection of his keyboard , spewing out bullchit on top of bullchit
Revelated gtfoh

Eubank was just looking for a way out. If Hearn had gone back to Eubank and agreed,Chris would have added "oh, and I'll be needing a night with your wife"..

This sounds fughin right ^^^^^
Since when has demanding a fughin picture been the gift to signing a contract
Guaranteed once given the picture , as mind games said , then it would be the demand to **** his wife
Who knows what’s next
Daughter , niece ???

Considering the source, the picture on the wall, a living wage, and a decent contract.

It's funny that eubank jr was saying kell brook was a yes man and they didn't want to sell their soul by signing the contract, but it was just a petty outburst over some picture. This is a joke and a bad look.

[SteveM]

yup

also not the reason they gave before.....which i never believed anyway....i always believe both sides wanted golovkin/brook and eubank was the scapegoat...because the public would never buy brook/golovkin as an actual fight both sides wantd to put together...they always used the "this is the best we could do" excuse

your belief system and bias is blinding you from the obvious.

They spent a couple of months trying to put the Eubank fight together. They had a date reserved at the venue but as the date got closer Eubank still hadn't signed and the situation was getting desperate.

Hearn was the lead promoter and he needed a quick remedy - he called a natural elite 154 fighter as I don't believe he had other world class middle weights and Brook said yes.

Look up Occam's Razor.

I liked Eubank Sr as a fighter. I even liked his out of ring persona as it was unique and entertaining, but there's no denying th eguy is a pain in the ass.

Eubank jr. doesn't have half the personality or the skills of his dad. His career has been carefully managed and if he steps in the ring with Charlo or Andrade or Canelo he will be exposed as a European level fighter, not world class.

Hence the hatred from half the British fans

[Ant1979]

Textbook Eubank Snr...

[Buggy bear]

The Hearns are so petty.

what you talking about ? Tell me what right he has to someone else's property that has nothing whatsoever to do with his sons career and future , I call it ****ing selfish and pathetic on his part . Would you not let your son sight an NFL deal unless you got rare super bowl photo you played in ( and yes I understand the relevance of the cards ).
