Do not even go there. :badass::badass:

Getting back to the subject Warren said in boxing weekly that he thinks Dad Eubanks is a complete idiot and can not work with him at all.

Eubank Sr. Didn't want to commit long term to Matchroom (who wanted him to top the bill on Jr's own show followed by a PPV World title shot) or Warren ( who offered £800k for the Saunders rematch.), because he's just got his promoter's licence.
So he accepted £110k for a British title shot. Then Eubank Sr. Thinks he's gonna make a shit load of dough cutting the middle man out. Note, the money would be for HIM, not his Son, his Son would've made the dough anyway as stated above.
What Eubank doesn't realise is that you have to have Money (or a backer) to make money.
How does this silly cunt think he is going to fund these shows? And what the fucking he'll does he know about promoting and organising a complete show?
Perhaps he thinks his fee for I'm a Celebrity will fund it! :rolleyes:
This is a very similar situation to the McGuigan/Frampton Scenario , where the guy in charge is making decisions that aren't necessarily best for the fighter, but best for themselves.
It'll all come out in the wash.

Haye is doing a good job.

Who needs to rely on the Hearn/Warren cartel?

I was just going to reply with Haye.

I dont think you realise how massive a Eubank Benn fight will be.

It will instantly have a bigger audience than almost any fight you can think of in britain. Especially TV audience.

I dnt remember the exact figure but they drew massively on TV when they had their fights.

Haye is a heavyweight crossover star, it's like comparing Tom Cruise with Ian Beale.

Eubank isnt?

Every man and his dog does a Eubank impersanation!

Are we judging this on reality tv appearances?;D

I wasn't replying about old Eubank or old Benn but the current place of Frampton/Eubank Jr in boxing compared with Haye.

Frampton will never get close to drawing the TV audience Haye can and Jr hasn't even come close to headlining a major fight yet (packed venues like the 02, PPV or millions of TV viewers)

I do realise how massive Benn v Eubank would be , and so do both of them. That is probably why Eubank got his promoter's licence. Benn said Eubank "offered" him a 70-30 split. Benn wants 50-50 and that's it.
But Eubank doesn't have the cash (he went bankrupt remember ) or the backers.
Haye also almost went bankrupt, but because he has had millions recently, he mixed in circles and did business with people, "friends" who could fund him. Eubank Sr. Isn't relevant to the money men NOW, because he made and lost his money a long time ago.
The TV Stations will also have a moral dilemma with Benn v Eubank, whereas eventually Haye will get momentum and TV execs love a "Cinderella man" story.

Benn v Eubank 3 on ITV 16 million watching, Gary Newbon good old days.
