    Exactly. Next week I expect the Eubanks to be calling out Sergey Kovalev, with Eddie Hearn saying ''unlike everybody else, Eubank REALLY wants the fight.'' The fact Golovkin has humiliated the Eubanks on Twitter is a comedic touch though.

    If the Eubanks chicken out now their credibility is in tatters.

    Im not sure if there tied to matchroom for another fight but I'm personally expecting Eubank v BJS 2 announcement to be made - there was no way that they where going to be silly enough to take on GGG

    I'm not so sure this won't come back to haunt them. At least in the short term. Letting people down like this after the big build up is hard to forgive.

    The most vocal people that will act let down wont be his fans anyway, quite the opposite they will be the ones who are always trying to find a negative.

    These are the same people that think he has no chance and wont sign anyway.
    They are the same people that will say he's cashing out if he signs!
    They are the same people that will call GGG an overrated bum if CEJ beats him!

    If the.fight is made....it will be very interesting. Would of prefered to see eubank fight someone like lemieux or jacbos first....as it would of been a great gauge to see were he's at...but I see this as win win for eubank...jusf like khan canelo....big payday win or lose...HUGE world exposure an, IF he gives a good account of himself...or even better, wins, he will be the number 1 middleweight....but im 15% confident he pulls is off...I.m.o...the better the opponent..the better ggg we will see

    Two more fights on the contract- he really should fight Jacobs next.

    The GGG fight looks to be off.

    There is a lot to like about cejs performances in the ring....and a lot to dislike about how he conducts business outside the ring.

    I used to give Khan hammer for calling people out, giving it the large but at least when a fight he shouted for was put in front of him he signed.

    Yeah,not Golovkin,not yet anyway.What annoys about Eubank is his dad telling him to take a backward step pointlessly fighting for the British title for him.Eubank jr should be concentrating on his own career and if he was he would of pressed to get the fight on with wba champion Daniel Jacobs.That would of given him world level experience good enough for the Golovkin fight.But I think that's dead anyway because he wont sign.
