Chris Eubank Jr-Tommy Langford - 22 Oct

[Fenster]

Frank "i'll never work with Eubank again" Warren has announced this. All the bullshit about fighting Golovkin and the like yet Jr is sticking to defending his British title. Not sure how turning down millions at the 02 to fighting in Cardiff, for a fraction of that, in front of one man and a dog makes sense but it clearly does to them.

The poster has it 2nd billing to Liam Williams-Ahmet Patterson (good fight).

I haven't seen it anywhere , but does anyone know how much the purse bid was that Warren put in?
I'm really curious to find out how much Junior will be getting compared to the £3 million that Brook is getting in his place to fight GGG.

I heard snr say before he wishes he regrets not winning the british title to keep


maybe that's a motivation

Has junior won the lonsdale belt outright?

[Fenster]

Going for the Lonsdale belt outright makes sense but they're so nuts I doubt it. Unless they keep playing the game of - call out world-class bods but fight domestic level, I suppose they can keep that going for another year.

Whatever the purse bids were he'll be getting peanuts compared to what he could have made. Even Billy Joe has said they turned down 900k to face him.

Junior is clearly not ready for world title fights but want the publicity of a world champion.

[Dean Duke]

They put Junior in with Saunders and he came up short, they realised he needed more experience in the bank before they step it up again, he has smashed Spike, almost killed a guy, battered the next and now is fighting to keep the lonsdale belt outright , he is clearly above british level. The amount of money to be made off Junior is a very very large amount they will not take risks until they are sure as can be that he is ready, Junior should fight BJS after this one it will be a good measure to see how much he has learnt since last time, BJS is top euro level at best, GGG is a beast and should not be on the radar until after the Canelo fight. Good luck to Mr langford he is going to need it.

What is really funny is that promoters who hate him still work with him. Hearn wants him smashed to bits by GGG but Junior did not take the bait.
