I want eubanks carear to be long and entertaining with the belief he is at the top level
the GGG fight is a massive risk, he could well get blasted out in a round
and that would take the edge of what ever he does from then on
so yes, id rather see him fight Jacobs too
Hope I'm wrong but I think this Golovkin talk could be bluffing from eubank snr. Jnr could have fought Jacobs but fought Blackwell. He could've rematched saunders but chose Doran so why would he fight Golovkin next. Limieux is a more realistic fight for him
If it does happen, props to eubank for going after the avoided man. Canelos ducking of the same guy was inexcusable. Possibly the worst duck in history.
Pac and Floyd was bad but they had excuses over drug testing principles etc. Canelo just blatantly ducked Golovkin to fight Liam smith and that's shameful.
So if eubank steps up he gets full credit.
Yeah if he is being out pointed mid way through and realizes he cant drop Jnr off head shots the whole thing could head into an area we haven't seen yet, which is what we all want; to see him tested out.Quote:

You mainlanders in the UK get to see Rigondeaux, Golovkin and Klitschko on your doorstep this year. Cant be bad.
That's if the Brexit lot let them in. They will probably arrive to a "Go home Vermin" on the dressing room door if it carries on like it is ;DQuote:

GGG is much more than just power. His foot work, jab and boxing brain are terrific.
To say if he didn't have power he wouldn't be the same... well yeah. You wouldn't be the same if you was born with a fanny instead of goolies.
Yep, lot of Ifs there. If GGG can't impose his power and If Eubank has his Dad's Chin. Might as well just come out and say "I don't like GGG."
We're going to find out if Junior is as tough as his old man. Hopefully he gets well paid for it because he won't be the same afterwards.
And yeah, how the fuck is Rigondeaux fighting Jazza Dickens at the motherfunking Ice Palace in Wales?
That's why you don't sign with one of these rappers or even Richard Schaefer and his new firm. The existing firms are scrambling to keep their position in the market so they're just not going to do you any favours when it comes to making fights against their guys, especially when it's Rigondeaux and the unique set of unoutboxable/commercial disaster characteristics he brings to any promotion.
Exactly. He does have quite a decent amateur record.Quote:

This is a good fight for British boxing in 2016!! To have a superstar like GGG fight at the 02 will be special. Think Eubank will give a good account of himself, but he's not on that level of GGG. GGG could outbox him, Lemieux style, break him down...or have a tear up with him? I don't know, GGG boxing is underrated and with the power like that I think he stops Eubank mid to late. It should be a good fight to watch though especially if GGG does try and engage in a tear up, then we would really be in for a treat!!!
On a side note what the fucks Saunders doing? He needs to be fighting asap!!!
Saunders eill be seething if Eubank gets Golovkin, he will be hoping to fuck that Eubank doesnt win.
I think he will have a nervous break down if Eubank does win;D
Firstly, I don't think BJS will be seething because he had the opportunity to fight GGG but clearly didn't want it. (It hasn't been confirmed with Eubank yet either btw.)Quote:

I just think these British boxers have a ridiculously over inflated opinion of their worth. And all because they do more talking than doing.
