    When I really look at it I begin to see clearly.

    I can see that Hearn thinks CEJ has a huge future.

    I can see that Hearn thinks CEJ will face the winner in the future.

    You really are beating the hell out of this drum.

    I'm not going to retype what I have said as I am sure you will remember, and whilst your theory could be true, I just feel there are too many unnecessary variables. I just think it is more plausible that the Eubank's would not want the constant stick and fall out of what has happened due to this debacle. Particularly in the UK. Also, you are acting like promoters having a back up plan ( Brook in this instance) is a weird and rare thing.

    I see you say that you take things promoters and fighters say with a pinch of salt, but on many different threads now I have seen you quote a promoter or fighter as though what they say is gospel. Could the problem not be that as you have shown with your actions, and even admitted yourself, you like winding up GGG fans and having a pop at anything negative that GGG and his team does. Due to this, do you think maybe that you are reading too much into this situation and looking for something that just isn't there just so you have more ammunition to fire at GGG's fans?

    here is what hearn said to sky sports

    "there is a huge future for chris eubank jr. He can fight the winner later on in the year. he has a big future ahead of him. He misses out this time but I am sure he will get his shot in due course"

    I do like to wind up gg fans from time to time...but I think its obvious when im being ridiculous or when I have a legit gripe with k2 and gg.....im fairly reasonable so I think its obvious when im joking and when im serious....and I have serious gripes with ggg , this team and fans...this is a legit serious one

    his fans keep insisting this wasn't planned and it just came about....and I think there are a few signs that suggest that it was planned...and that it was calculated.....and they've used that excuse to justify this fight many times.....and I think its a terrible excuse....but they will find a way to excuse any behavior of loeffler and company

    they aren't going to come right out and tell u they planned to try to fight a welter....theyre already taking enough heat without that.....and they deserve to take some....so everytime someone makes a joke all you hear is "they didn't plan this eubank fell through and they needed a fight quick"....which I think you can see just might be total bull****....ggg and k2 deserve some ridicule for this fight....but typical gg fans behavior is to pass blame on everyone and anything else ....because ggg would never do something like negotiate with a welterweight in their eyes......but its just possible they did just that

    You see Floyd knows how to calculate his own money and win fights. Manny Pacroids needs Arum to completely control him because he's a beach bum.

    I don't know about Eubank, but I do believe Arum stalled Vargas-Brook talks until he was confident Pac is returning.

    Arum is a vet, he's playing chess.

    Here's my scenario to set up a Brook / GGG fight.

    *Golovkin in press conference, answering questions*
    *Enter Brook, left*
    *Brook slaps GGG in the face*

    Brook: "I hate Khazaks ever since I watched Borat. Fight me!"
    GGG: "You're on, fgt"

    Fight organized.

    He's no vet. Lets see ARUM get in the ring and fight.

    people seem to give 2 ****s...I have a bunch of guys that follow me in every thread quoting me and trying to get my attention...some of them are on ignore, and know that, but still insist on talking to me...quoting me and trying to have my attention...look BCS8 ....prime example

    now of course I realize these people don't agree with my views and probably think im an "idiot"...and believe me...the feeling is mutual...but I don't follow them around spouting off childish gibberish and 3rd grade insults...I can assure you of that

    Believe wins because how can you know if you don't believe it? I already know I don't have all the answers, but I'll believe it when I see it.
