    I'm starting to seriously consider it. Every other top guy in the division either prices them self out or "will be ready in 1-2 years". I've never seen anything like it

    Canelo after his fight with khan- I'm ready , let's put the gloves on right now.... I mean in 2017

    Eubank calling him out for a month hard now that it's time to sign- 1st dollar should go to the fighter

    Daniel Jabobs-even though I'm the mando and it would be the biggest money/high profile fight of my career I'm not ready...maybe 1.5 years

    Quillin-I need 10 mil even though I've never made anywhere near that against anyone else

    BJS- another I need a lot of $$$ to get the courage to fight GGG

    This is the craziest **** I've ever seen. Hopefully Lara will fight...if not just move up to SMW. F these cowards at MW

    Yes. No one wants to fight him, not even his mandatory, Jacobs.

    It's starting to get beyond ridiculous.

    Even Eubank Jr, despite his and his dad's big mouths are now holding out for more money from Sky, in a way the fight probably won't happen either.

    Every middleweight is scared out of his mind, and the haters bring up resume as the only thing they can still hit him with, and act it's his fault for not paying them insane amounts of money to retire on after getting KO'd

    Question for everyone?

    What fighter today would be the biggest Vegas favorite against their closest competitor at a specific weight? No catch weights please.

    Example -
    175 lbs - Ward 10/9 favorite against Kovalev

    From what I've read the meeting went very well yesterday and they expect Eubanks Jr to sign the contract within 48 hours. I think it's very safe to say this fight is a done deal.

    Sturm was terrified of GGG. Sturms own managed Ahmad Oner said Sturm said he would rather cut off his own hand than fight GGG.

    Yeah, I see the pattern regarding Golovkin. Let's hope Eubanks sticks to his word!

    Great aggressive knockout artists of the recent age? There's just Gonzalez, Klitschko, Pacquiao, Jones Jr., and Tyson. Maybe, also Hamed and Tszyu. Segura was pretty hot around 2011 with a great knockout percentage before Viloria, Sosa, and Estrada boxed his ears off. Donaire was crackin' heads, keeping the lower weights running scared before Rigondeaux derailed that train. Inoue is getting there but it's still a little early to tell.
