Eubank Jr v GGG figthing in autumn

[Batman]

Just had a tweet come through about it.

Poor old Jr, he gunna get KTFO...If it is true that is, Eddie Hearn tweeted it apparently I had the text from sky sports

No so fast

Does GGG hit as hard as they make out ? Have you seen a ref over a Triple G opponent say "7,8,9, 10"

point taken on the GGG knocking people out cold, it did make me have a hunt on youtube and I came across this one which I don't believe I have seen before, I think its fair to say this was a pretty solid knockout

[Mr140]

Well if the kid does indeed have his dads chin that alone will be a bigger Challenge then anything GGG has faced in his career. If GGG power is taken away from him i am very curious how good he will look he is a good boxer not great his power masks his flaws he has would love to watch the fight.

[Dark Lord Al]

GGG is an effortless punching machine , he is pinpoint and deadly. The bodywork will break JR down and he will be most likely stopped in the later rounds.
I think its a good matchup.

[Fenster]

This is all bollocks. At the post fight press conference Hearn said the fight is done from Golovkin's end, everyones on board, but the Eubanks have to sign. To which the old man started waffling about it's up to Sky/money.

They're just using Golovkin's name.

Also, I don't agree there's evidence Jr has his dads beard, the only world-class fighter he's faced was a non-puncher. Doran, Spike, Blackwell - yeah these guys can crack but compared to Jacobs, Lee, Lemieux let alone Golovkin. Different levels.

if it isn't bollox, which I don't think it is, then Eubank does deserve a pat on the back for chasing the fight


there's ways of gaining publicity that aren't chasing (what looks like) the most brutal boxer that's been on the scene for the last 30 years

[IamInuit]

Who is in charge of his career? Is it Papa, Fast Eddie or him. Promoters say a lot of things about "done deals"

The kid seems genuine. If its a front then they got me. If the fight happens great and if it does not so what? Its not supposed to.

Question to Mr. @denilson200.

How many 10 counts have you seen in the last 30 years?

Did he not get a 10 count against Macklin with the body shot?

No I think the old man truly believes Jr will batter Golovkin. He's that nuts. However, he's not nuts enough to demand a kings ransom to be proven right.

I'd love it to happen, especially as we get Golovkin in the UK, but think it's more likely we'll be hearing about Sky/Matchroom couldn't meet their demands.

[ross]

You mainlanders in the UK get to see Rigondeaux, Golovkin and Klitschko on your doorstep this year. Cant be bad.

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.

If GGG does not have the power to hurt the guy he is fighting he is about half the fighter. GGG outside of his power is kinda of meh there a reason he not moving up weight classes because his power is his main weapon take that away and we see what he is made of this would be a step up i think.

[Fenster]

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.

[Primo Carnera]

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."

[Kirkland Laing]

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.
