Seems obvious that they didn't give CEJ the contract from that or Hearn would have straight out said so. Hearn was just spinning it so nobody looked bad the best way he could. Kell Brook is Hearn's boy, and Kell wanted a mega payday. The only way he could get it was GGG, Hearn gave it to Kell instead of CEJ. That is the way I see it, I don't blame GGG for this but you still can't say this isn't worse then Canelo vs Khan!!!!!!!!!!!!111
It's quite clear that Eubanks SR is the reason why JR never got the GGG fight. I genuinely believe JR wanted this fight but unfortunately for him his father got in the way as usual & tried to make it all about him by taking control of everything. For the sake of Eubank JR career I hope he tells his old man to take a back seat because he us killing his career. No one wants to do business with him.
Here we go. This is the truth ^ :deal I read an interview with Chris Eubank Sr's ex wife and what she said matches perfectly what Hearn is saying here. The correct spelling of Chris Eubank is E. Go. So thanks to this old fart we aren't seeing CEJ v GGG which I was quite excited about, we are seeing GGG vs Brook which I'm not. I guess that if you like Brook, this is the biggest fight of his career and frankly I hope he grabs the chance with both hands. But I suspect he is getting KO'd and early.
Why bother posting if you didn't even listen to the link? Hearn says he's not even allowed to speak to Jr. According to Hearn, numbers were agreed but then Sr tried to take control of the PPV model that Match room use for all of their fighters. He demanded double the ticket prices that Joshua commands and wanted to dictate who was on the Undercard and what they get paid.
