    Got reported he only got 400k for fighting Lee..there is 3.2 million bucks on the table..Is frank ****** and his son good enough to get this show on the road or will they play second fiddle to Matchroom?

    C'MON guys whats really going on behind the scenes?

    It's about what BJS is figuring. We know that he expects to lose and badly, wich will show his and his moneyfight opponent Eubank Jr their true levels, wich might completely remove the significancy of that rematch as well.
    On the other hand, he probably needs at least 4 other fights to make the same amount of money or otherwise needs to have a couple of pushovers and then fight Golovkin anyway.
    Because he seems to know where he stands, and in that case it would be stupid to take other bigger fights and just hope you pull trough them to still be making the kind of money he does on an almost certain loss.

    I think BJS at his best has a chance of outpointing GGG

    It is hard to outpoint GGG when facing the Sky

    You gotta be able not to get caught 4-5 times each round with GGG and I don't think there is a fighter who can do that. BJS is good, but certainly not that good but then a loss to the best is only a slight blemish on anyones record.

    I hope he just takes the fight to be honest. He's in his prime or close enough. I do think Golovkin should come to the UK for the fight though. Yes Golovkin is the bigger name but he needs this fight more than BJS does.

    As much as I would love to see this fight BJS would be a fool to take it at this stage, he should defend a few times build his reputation and bank account then cash out against GGG in a mega fight a year or two down the line. From my point of view I'd want him to take it straight away but that would be a terrible decision from his perspective.

    I think if they include a rematch clause the fight could happen

    If the money us good then take the fight. BJS is young enough so he can come back. A loss to GGG won't see many write him off so he can rebuild. Plus, the Eubank fight will always be there.

    ***** will only allow the GGG fight if he gets his hands on a fair old wod....just my opinion and not a personal slur on the hall of fwamer.
