    I'd love that to be the case. He doesn't deserve another single payday

    Hearn's next step, if he wants this to go ahead, is going to have to be via a bogus arrangement with an overseas commission. However Eubank, so far at least, maintaining he won’t fight outside BBBofC jurisdiction.

    Kel Brook is making all the noise of a retired fighter looking for another payday and says he 'would definitely get out of my silk sheets for a fight with Benn.'

    Hearn is obviously absolutely desperate for Eubank-Benn but perhaps his fallback will be Brook?

    As I expected Benn is going down the 'coward' route re Eubank not signing the fight.

    Any fight contract will have line which stipulates which board the fight is under and references to that boards rules and stipulations. As Benn can't be licensed in the UK the contract can't be signed without another board being inserted.


    Do they want eubank to sign a contract which has loads of blank spaces in it with TBC in bold letters?

    It's laughable.

    Demand and supply, the fight is bigger now then ever from a financial view point.

    CB would love millions to tune in to see him get flattened, whether they are haters or not the more the better.

    The ***** knows all about worst treatment… he spent years posting about the plight of Yemen and the ongoing genocide going on there. Fair play to him to be fair for highlighting the massive murder and famine that went on there.

    However, that has changed over the last year or so since when he became part of the Saudi’s payroll. Saudi Arabia being the country who are responsible for the genocide.

    Interestingly he’s also deleted all his old posts off his social media about Yemen. But two posts remain where he has misspelt Yemen as Yemen and obviously failed to spot these when he went on his post deletion spree.

    And helping clean money and reputation for a drugs lord.

    I actually don't mind people milking money, but wankers like him who preach from up high are dreadful.

    Used Car Salesman Jones made an absolute hash of Joyce’s career. I wouldn’t imagine any boxer looking at Joyce now and going that was well managed.

    Anyway, I suppose he is good at carrying bags and doing menial tasks that are time consuming.

    Yeah, I listened over lunch. Decent listen. Apparently Sam Jones reached out to Jordan and offered him a meeting with Benn.

    It was typical Jordan - very wordy, could have been half the length it was, but it's clear they covered a lot of ground in their meeting. The key points I took from it:

    - Jordan sympathised with Benn somewhat
    - Benn is going to share more information publicly very soon - Jordan refused to divulge most of the details, as he promised he wouldn't steal Benn's thunder
    - Benn claimed to Jordan that he didn't tear his boxing licence up - it reached its natural expiry
    - Jordan told him his advisors had done badly by him, and represented him appallingly in the court of public opinion

    Would assume Benn will be on the Jordan / White show very soon to state his case. I would much rather he shared his case with the BBBofC personally.

    Hopefully he has a better reason for not dealing with them than last time, when he told them to "do one".
