    In a recent interview (with IFL I believe) he said he wants Golovkin and that both Brook/Williams would only be a tune up for him. I imagine this is what Brooks replying too.

      Interesting. Doesn't Young Eubank fight at 168, calling out the name of a guy that barely made 160?

        Yes he has mostly campaigned at 168 although there is the thought that he basically is a 160 fighter who went up to the less stacked division to pick up an easy belt (IBO - which Groves didn't even want when he beat him in the WBSS which led to it becoming vacant and them placing Eubank as #1 for it again LOL and is now owned by Carlos Gongara whom I am almost certain picked the vacant up as a short notice replacement against some other hype job who was supposed to win it 8-1 odds). I am also almost certain Sr has said before that 160 is his natural weight. I guess Jr was name dropping a prior (maybe brit purposefully) GGG opponent to generate hype or buzz or something and he either ******ly picked the one who came up in weight (also been rumored that brook got that fight as Jr backed out) or picked one he knows he will never have to fight as Kell Brook is not a Middleweight.
