Comments Thread For: Eubank Jr. Wants Golovkin Showdown: I Know I Can Beat Him!

[PredatorStyle]

This is the fight I most want including a British fighter. While I don't think Jr wins, I expect a brutal encounter and potential fight of year.

Fight Danny Jacobs first before GGG.

i love the whole "pen" scenario hearn and co. created to give us brook/golovkin which is what they wanted all along

loeffler, before this, had been in articles and interviews telling people how they made fights...how they had a list and if they couldnt get the first guy signed by a certain amount of time theyd move on to the next and so on and so on....ive read it and many other promoters/managers have expressed the same....you cant get fighter A to sign by a certain date you move on...and you have a list of 3-4 names

so why did team golovkin keep waiting and waiting and waiting till the last minute with eubank with no signature? with no backup plan B at 160 or 168? because they wanted brook all along

its called logic and common sense...in fact 6 months before the signed golovkin was on cam in an interview and asked about brook..he dismissed it as him being too small

if youre making a fight you come up with a plan B , C and D of guys to move on to if the fight isnt secured...its simple...everyone does it...its logic......team golovkin waited and waited and waited on eubank with nothing....and when it became last minute they gladly took brook and had nothing else at 160-168 to go to.....because that was the plan all along

i dont think eubank beats golovkin even now...thats not the point...the point is that was always the fight they wanted and they had to sell the public because they knew it wouldnt be accepted straight up...they knew they made fun of canelo for fighting khan and couldnt be seen actively going for a WW

where was golovkins 160 backup plan if eubank didnt sign by a certain date? why keep waiting and waiting and not move on to the next fight?

Your logic and common sense dictate that GGG wanted to fight Brook all along, but was negotiating with Eubank because negotiating with Brook straight was a bad idea because of...reasons? Logic and common sense indeed.

There was a point in time when I though ggg would KO eubank, but right now, eubanks KOs this version of ggg and gives him coma. ggg is too slow and eubanks throws a million punches relentlessly. I don't see ggg surviving eubank's onslaught to be honest.

Your logic and common sense dictate that GGG wanted to fight Brook all along, but was negotiating with Eubank because negotiating with Brook straight was a bad idea because of...reasons? Logic and common sense indeed.

the reason was golovkin had already made fun of canelo for fighting khan.....theres no way he could straight up negotiate with brook and sell him as his actual target.....thats not just "reasons"...that is A REASON...a big one.....that was pretty clear and easy to follow....you remind me or a large demo of people out there right now who pretend not to see or understand things that fly in the face of what they want to to believe...i made my point clear

if you are negotiating with eubank and you dont have his signature by a certain deadline you move on to plan B....there was no 160-168 plan b by team golovkin...which goes in the face of how they said they make fights...and most other promoters/managers say how they make fights......why didnt golovkin have a second 160-168 lb option if eubank didnt sign?

If anybody ever disagreed with me about Golovkin not being the same fighter he used to be here's proof.

I still wanna see Eubank v Korobov

Eubank literally needs to fight anyone. He's wasting his career. Golovkin will beat him. Eubank doesn't hit hard enough. He's been fighting above his weight.
