    A great interview about how CEJ signed to fight Tommy Langford and then did not meet his obligations.

    The Eubanks are now on the hook for damages for backing out of two fights they signed for last year, both the BJS fight and the Langford fight.

    I hope lots of casuals pay for the PPV to watch CEJ blast out that 12-1 bum that he is fighting in Feb 2017 because the Eubanks are going to need all of the money they can their hands on to pay for the legal fees and the damages! HaHa

    Discuss the business ethics and management of CEJs career by the old English

    Lol I love Frank but all this suing crap needs to stop. Other fighters who maybe considering signing for him but maybe a little reluctant will be looking at this kind of thing.

    The fact is, nobody was bothered that we didn't get to see Eubank beat up Langford. It's not as if Chris fcuked him off and took another fight either. Whether it's was a legit injury or not is irrelevant -
    Only Team Eubank know the score. There is no way that the board are going to take any action unless Frank can prove that there lying and he can't. A signed contract in 1988 is not the same as it is in 2016 and Frank needs to accept that.

    The original fight fight date on October 22 was cancelled anyway because of other pullout apparently. Plus Frank would have saved money on not having to pay that purse to Chris and Tommy so I don't belive he's lost out financially.

    You can't be threatening to sue people in one email and then offering them a million pounds on another to fight BJS again. Franks own son confirmed that they had made another offer to Jnr in a recent interview.

    It's all good fun though..it was a classic Frank rant

    Frank to be fair is right to be annoyed if they signed the deal and he spent a fair bit to promote the fight only for them to back out, don't think it looks too bad on him, more the eubanks

    Is it just me or does CEJ have the hint of a gay serial killer about him? Quite a few people in the industry, including guys at Mayweathers's gym, have said he's a complete weirdo. If I was the police investigating the Grindr killer I'd check I've got the right bloke.

    He has that series killer presence for sure.

    He's a bit like an American Psycho character.

    Born into riches but still loves maiming people. You can see it in his face he has no humility at all. Would kill you and not blink an eye

    Warren on senior: 'As soon as he signed for me he lost.'

    Not a great thing for a promoter to point out....

    Yes that was deliberate insult designed to niggle Old English.

    He was pointing out that as soon as he picked Old English's fights for him and put him in with tough opponents he lost. Therefore, he was never that good to begin with.

    Based on CEJs weak level of opponents he has a point- and CEJ cannot keep on facing 9-1 bumzinskys and expect to raise his profile and make anything more than chump change.

    Saunders will school Eubank Jr's ass again if they ever fight again.

    Eubank was green when they fought Billy has gone backwards. Have to make jnr the favourite this time.

    Billy is lazy and leads a slovenly lifestyle
