    Bowe throwing belt to garbage bin to avoid Lennox.

    Canelo avoiding Golovkin at all costs to save his career.

    Canelo=Bowe&Golovkin=Lewis.

    Isn't Eubank Jr guaranteed at least 4 million for this fight + other money from sponsors? He's in a win-win situation.

    Imo he deserve some respect but not any special amount.

    1. It should just be a given that boxers are willing to fight other guys in their division

    2. A bunch of other guys have fought Golovkin and other dangerous opponents

    Was Bowe considered the A-side and did he stand to lose millions by
    fighting for a WBC mandated purse split?

    What you meant to say was, Canelo smartly delaying the Golovkin fight in order make it an even bigger event next year.:deal

    Why did he move back to 154 then. That doesn't seem like a preparation for a Golovkin fight that should happen next year does it?

    You'll need quite a lot of imaginary hats to take off to every hopeless tomato can available in the Middleweight market when it comes to GGG.

    If I'm being totally honest, this matchup has a Mayweather-Pacquiao feel to it: I won't believe it's actually going to take place until they are both in the ring together, and the bell rings to start the first round.

    Assuming GGG vs CEJ does happen, Golovkin will waste no absolutely no time and effort in ruthlessly divesting Chris Eubank Jr. of all his precious minerals, rendering Junior a beaten, broken, battered husk. :yep

    Canelo doesn't have the minerals to fight Golovkin at 160, or even 157: we all know that. He'd rather drop down to 154, fight Liam Smith for the WBO title, then fight an Adrien Broner or an Antonio Margarito at 155 next Cinco de Mayo. :lol::lol::lol:

    So twitter is the source for this? Sorry but I will wait for actual confirmation before I believe anything.

    That's why I said what I said a few posts up. The Eubanks have s habit of doing this: calling out Golovkin, Jacobs or Saunders, using those names to get leverage for themselves, and then fighting guys at British level. :patsch

    Hopefully Hearn will call the Eubanks' bluff, and back them into a corner at some point. It's the least they deserve for all their hot air and bluster.

    It's not official and until it actually signed and announced I think you should hold judgement.

    Jr wants it, I have no doubt about that but Sr has to agree the deal and anybody who knows about Sr knows is he is a nightmare to work with so let's just wait until Hearn announces it.

    I think it will happen but there is always a chance it won't.
