    I've seen bits a pieces on Twitter and YouTube, could someone in the know explain what's going on with Eubank and match room?

    It's all up in the air. Gollum's the flea in the ointment..
     
  3. The Eubanks tried to use Matchroom to engineer a situation in which they were able to go to Sky directly and deal with them for Jr’s future fights. It’s clear as day they hoped the recent exposure would back Sky into a corner in which they’d have no choice but to tell Hearn they need to show Jr’s fights. It’s failed badly and they are now going to have to grovel to Hearn should they wish to fight on Sky again.

    The issue with Matchroom losing the Blackwell purse bids is largely irrelevant.

    Obviously thought Sky would do what they do for Groves, Eddie is desperate to have Junior in his stable regardless and will accept him back I think

    Don't be surprised to see Jr sign something with Haymon.

    Basicly Hearns has been to smart for everyone ,,, Eubanks contract said 3 fight but purse bids counted has a fight win or lose the bid ,, so he had 2 fights , they lost the bid , Eubank took his option on the bid being classed has a fight and said , see ya i'm off . i'm leaving you . Eubank snr has then approached sky to run his son on ppv , and sky has told him sorry you can't all ppv must go through Hearns has we have a 6 year contract .

    Hearns has then got the hump and said , eubanks was nothing without me , i've built him up in 2 fights , and the ***** has used his pull out clause , not only left me but gone behind my back ,, well stuff him cos i've got the contract and he can get stuffeed , he's finished in the uk UNLESS i let him back , but i'll only do that if he signs a 100 fight water tight deal with me ,,

    He also goes on a rant about there being levels and he's top level everyone else is low level , his Dads got the hump and might not forgive Eubanks ,, but i'm more forgiving if they apolagize and lick my ass i might let them back .. cos he's got the contract ,, its contactual , and its contractual ,, and Eubank and fury and saunders will never fight on sky unless he gets his cut cos its contractual , and he's got the contract , , see matchroom are smarter than everyone else and its contractual .

    Makes me wonder though if all the top name are not contracted to him , and box elsewhere , when sky don't have any ppv they can sell what happens if they make a seperate company called say sky channel 1 and put the ppv's on there ,, what does Daddys boy Eddie do with his contract then cos thats not contractual .

    But Eubanks are nasty people right they come off as all polite and good mannered but they are actually very nasty.

    Weirdly, I feel like Trumpy is trying to communicate something more or less accurate here, but through a veneer of unlettered gibberish.

    Not so sure why anyone is running towards Jacobs . Be careful what you wish for...
    Eubank should stick with Hearn he's getting great exposure unless he wants to go back to Channel 5 and make a lot less money..Take a few more fights grow as a fighter as a bit - he's still so wild and his punch power isn't great and after seeing him stunned a couple of times V Spike I don't think his chin will be like his old mans
