Hate to break this to you, but when an average MW contender refuses a deal that'd make a legitimate WW titlist move up 2 weight classes, It means the said MW contender was being delusional and impossible to negotiate with.
Said MW contender didn't refuse any deal. They had a few requests that Hearn used as an excuse to switch opponent.
Well sure ...if u operate under the Assumption ggg/eubank was an actual intention But I've supplied quotes that say loeffler talked to earn in early April or even sometime in March about it....and even a quote where loeffler said hearn told him that brook/ggg is a bigger event
He did. He didn't want to take the fight for 5 mill. + ppv cut. Just like he ducked Jacobs and Saunders rematch, he punked out of the GGG fight.
We'll have to leave it there, further discussion is pointless I think. Let's see Eubank Jr fight someone decent, funny how he fights nobody but you say GGG is ducking him.
Brook may not be a last minute replacement, but he wasn't the plan A either. We heard Hearn accuse Eubank Sr for making the negotiations impossible. If he was lying, we would've heard it from Eubank Sr himself, who instead kept quiet for months about. And here is a different quote: To me, this means Eubank did indeed want a better deal than the one that Brook got, which is beyond delusional.
IBF and WBC sanctioned it. You only care about the origanization that suits your agenda in the moment, I am consistent in not caring. Unless you only recognize all WBA Champions, ratings, rules, and policies....you refering to them on this matter is selective bias and makes you look foolish.
Source he refused 5 mill. + ppv cut or it never happened. He could have been talking about anything it that interview- Future options , tied down to matchroom , a lousy % ..anything. When exactly did he say he refused 5mil on top of PPV money?
"We're gonna take what we deserve." means that he thought he deserved a better deal. "We're not your yes-men, whereas Kell was like "listen, yes" means that he indeed he wanted a better deal than the one Brook got for the particular fight, which consists of Brook fighting GGG for 5 mill + ppv cut.
You have no source and are purely making assumptions. You pulled 5m + PPV right out your ass crack. You have no idea what he was referring to. How do you know he wasn't offered a quarter of that and no slice of PPV revenue. You don't. You failed one again. Come back with official sources , not opinion pieces.
You were the one going on about GGG never wanting to fight CEJ and Brook always being the target based on pure assumptions moron. I have a quote directly from Eubank Jr's mouth, admitting crystal clear to anyone with a brain cell(which obviously doesn't involve you) that he didn't like the deal that Brook got, which was 5 mill + ppv cut. Hearn confirmed that he offerd Brook the exact same deal that he offered to CEJ, and Eubank himself didn't refute or deny that. So indeed Eubank Jr did NOT want to face GGG for 5 mill + ppv cut.
There's more to a contract then money stupid. CEJ never said nothing about money but you are here telling me you know for fact as if you were sitting there right next to them when it took place. Plus he never said he turned anything down. His exact words were they were in middle of negotiations then suddenly Brook got the fight.
Hearn says that Eubank wanted "full operational control of the promotion", even up to demanding certain announcers for the fight from Sky Sports. I'm very excited that I'm fighting as people put him pound for pound best fighter on the planet. Gennady Golovkin's next opponent stunned many as the unified middleweight champion selected a bout with IBF welterweight titleholder Kell Brook at the O2 Arena in London on September 10. Many of us fight fans had two particular bouts high on our wish list in 2016: Gennady Golovkin vs Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and Amir Khan vs Kell Brook. "We've tried and tried to lure the best to come and fight me and now we've got the best of the best - the number one pound for pound fighter in the world is coming to the United Kingdom". He confirmed that the deal accepted by Brook was identical to what Eubank Jr was offered before the 24-hour deadline passed. http://www.totalsportek.com/boxing/golovkin-vs-brook-purse-payout/ Kell Brook vs Gennady Golovkin Purse Payouts FIGHTER Guaranteed Gennady Golovkin $5 million, Golovkin is not getting any PPV share Kell Brook $5 million, Brook might clear slightly more than Golovkin with his PPV contract with SkySports. There you go, put two and two together and you see that Eubank refused 5 million GBP.
