YEP fucking pack of lying bullshit artists they cried for a Billy Joe rematch but when they offered it to him he turned it down and now its the same with GGG i think they though they could calling him out but that GGG would always be in big fights but now Canelo ducked GGG Eubank is the only guy to fight so now the Eubanks are looking very stupid i hope now people will wake up ive never believed he wanted that fight bcoz i watch a lot of interviews and if you watch so many of the same subject you start to see lies just like when you watch Khan interviews on why he wouldnt fight Brook watch a few of them and he uses different excuses just like eunbank who said in 1 interview i want it then on the same day in another 1 he said he wants it but in 2 years time.
Jim Jackson I hope you do mate i want to see the fight but i will also come back and ask you how did you believe what Eubank was saying about wanting the fight ? Eddie said they 48hours to make the fight so if it not out by Friday its not getting made i hope im the 1 that is wrong btw.
He isnt saying ggg is getting the ";the first dollar that is dropped". Sky is, they take a cut in PPV sales and hes not happy with that but that's how its always been. Anyways this is just an excuse, they were never going to fight golovkin
GGG isnt a global star, he did 140k PPV numbers his last fight. Im not taking anything away from his ability, he is hands down the best pound for pound in the game right now, and i dont think its unreasonable for the eubanks to want a reward for a fight of such great risk
it means he will get his dues. sometimes if the revenue is tighter than expected, the promoter + broadcaster will take their profits before paying the fighter. eubank wants his son to get paid first before promoter and broadcaster take their cuts.
Golovkin has a huge following and sells out east and west coast with ease in Murica. What they meant with ''the first dollar''' was with skysportsboxoffice. Golovkin don't obviously has a deal with Sky since he don't fight in England, he has one with HBO.
He's not saying it's about money it's principles he's talking about fighters should be sorted out before the broadcasters (sky) and promoters. I respect what he's saying it's the fighter putting it on the line they should come first.
So basically to sum it up sky I believe and promoters are trying to sort out what kind of money they will generate before sorting out what the fighters should get hope this helps.
Well if he don't like it he can fuck off and junior can get a job as a bin man, this is how boxing works, you get paid after the fight, they weren't demanding to get paid upfront b4 any other fight but all of a sudden they get the chance to fight ggg and payment is a problem?
+Spiderfly Yes Sky to get more and then decide what remains for the fighter which is rubbish. The fighter must make more before Sky or the promoter, so he has a point...
+Kopend09 The network yes. As it's their platform that will ensure he makes more money. It's never been a problem before. I just see it as no reason to stop the fight happening. Especially when it's apparently so close to being made. If this is the excuse then Jr basically won't ever be able to box again as it's not going to change.
Hearn shouldn't get paid before any fighter but this is how boxing works, Eubanks are just dick splashes, they've been going on and on about the t ripple g fight but now the fight is offered to them there is a problem?
Junior needs to get rid of his Dad as manager, his career has stalled and it will continue to do so if his Dad tries to bully the big corps,Eubank is not that bigger name to be calling the shots.
So to translate what Eubank Sr is saying he don't want Jr to sine a contract that says he only gets say, 1million no matter what. Sr wants a contract that says Jr gets a % of the total $ earned from the fight witch could be way more than 1million. If the fight brought in 30 million and in Jr's contract it said he gets 1million then he gets 1million but if the contract was made the way Sr wants and said Jr gets 25% then he could walk away with 7.5million. I don't think hes being to unreasonable unless he's asking for like 60% hell that's how Mayweather made all his money.
Andy Gayle yeah I agree mate, boxers are the ones potentially risking their life, sky is meant to be working for the boxer to promote the fight. Money breeds greed unfortunately
Andy Gayle agreed mate...but eubanks knows nothing about the business of boxing and neither letting his son be a future "patriarch"....he is deluded in ...himself. He is not fighting anymore....and his business iq is putting up ppv.. maybe u should by it???;) ...no mate i mean....its bollocks. They never wanted to fight ggg and if they did...jr will be sprawled out on the deck while senoir flicks a flea off his 'sartorial elegance'.
*unknown* yes but i think he is gonna use the money situation and make up shit to price themselves out of the ggg fight I agree with lee i think eubank snr is saying all this stuff about his son being paid first and all that shit as an excuse to pull out of the fight if the terms dont 100% suit him
Tom CFC well i disagree their mayweather has been saying it for years its all about the fighters the ones who put it all on the line eubank jr deserves the first slice of the cherry and if sky wont agree to that then he should just move on and fight BJS in a rematch
Sky will invest in the fight and they will want to recoup their investment asap, then the profit will be shared with the fighters. If Eubank wants the 1st penny they should pay for the event.
But if the fight does horrible Eubank cant loose money. He may not make as much. But he cant loose. On the other hand the company can take a huge hit. Thats basic investment strategy.
+zerolondon 100% correct mate ive just said the same thing they are total bullshita's and they want Britain to back them ? fuck off stop lying to us and we might back you take us for fools and you get fucked. they look like a circus act to me.
Notice he made a massive point of saying "If this fight doesn't happen, it's because of sky" he knew it wouldn't happen and trying to cover his tracks. They bottled it and everybody knows it.
+Lee Mabiletsa spot on mate and are going to use this excuse to not take the fight they did the same last time around with hearn mentioned GGG then fought Tony jeter and spike o Sullivan and went and fought for a British title when the Jacobs fight was there fucking mongs the pair of them snr and jr
Have to disagree, was a fan of Eddie Hearn, less so recently with certain mis matches and fights being on ppv that should not be. But he is like his old man Barry Hearn, he makes sure that he just earns everyone more money and so gets more himself. Sky's practice is fine, some boxers don't even earn a grand for their fights, heard once the European title for flyweight was called off as Spanish and Italian boxer and no one bid for the right to put it on! Eubank ducked GGG have to believe Hearn on that one.
wrong the deal was done the papers faxed to the Eubanks ....Snr procrastinated wanting to change the set deal the same percenatges that AJ has and other Champions in the stable have. He didn't sign or get back to Matchroom within 48 hrs as he said in the video so sky pulled the plug as they have other interests and have't got time to cater to egos. To change the way deals are struck you don't do it in a negotiation for a fight. That's a separate business meeting with Sky and Matchroom not in a fight negotiation which has 48hrs to be signed. That's why Eddie is saying not strictly correct!... there are set protocols in any business regarding pricing and negotiations.
As long as his father is there, he will be overshadowed. He hardly spoke at the conference, he needs to get rid of him. Can't be a great when you are referred to as 'Junior'.
Chris EUbank as usual loving the sound of his own voice which might be half bearable if he was half as smart as he thinks he is. stevie wonder can he's trying to live vicariously through his son and them some
ive never believed he wanted it and even more so now this they "get out clause" if you like look at the billy jos thing he begged for rematch in public then when billy joe agreed and signed the contract Eubank walked away and fought Blackwell instead so he just name drops and tries to play the public and what i dont get is that Eubank snr is saying the British ppl should get behind us but if that is what you want dont fucking lie to us all the time. I loved Eubank snr back in the day and nothing will take away what he did in the ring as a fighter but now i just think what a fool man he is not even bright and clever its just an act.
Back in the day it was rumored frank warrens fighters had to wait quite a while after the fight that's how eddies been able to pouch them. But don't quote me on that I know shite 😄
usually, however much money the fight has made. broadcaster takes a chunk, then what's left is divided between the fighters, then the promotion. eubank is saying, he wants the fighters to take the cut. then what's left divided between the broadcaster and the promotion, he's been fighting for this since he was still fighting, and sounds spot on to me
The one fact that proves Eubank snr is an impossible man to deal with is the fact that both Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren agree Eubank snr is a deluded idiot. Warren and Hearn detest each other and agree on nothing BUT they even express sympathy for one another on dealing with him. Eubank snr ducked the GGG fight on behalf of his son by asking for things that were never on the table.
When you try to move big money out of the hands of the controllers it will never go well. They will burn their own shit down before that happens. Gotta play the game.
Alfie Nester It can happen' but First of you need to become a Household Word wide superstar like Mayweather and McGregor before you Try to call the shots and Eubank hasn't fought elite guys for that title
Ahsan Jamil Yes, right now they gotta play.. These guys will destroy his career before working with him if they push too hard to get exactly what he DESERVES.
1:06 I've seen numerous 'explanations' on this thread of what 'the first dollar that drops' and none of them make any sense. The promoter, broadcaster and fighter agree to divide the proceeds of the fight. There is no 'first dollar' dropping anywhere It's gibberish
I've seen numerous 'explanations' on this thread and none of them make any sense. The promoter, broadcaster and fighter agree to share the proceeds of the fight. There is no 'first dollar' dropping anywhere It's gibberish
Like Chris told his promoter the first day they me"I am a professional fighter and I know my worth." He changed the game for the better. I hope he changes it for the better, with his son. Look at Mike Watson. Why should he be broke and crippled while Hearn and TV are dripping in cash? Chris Eubank is right. God bless him.
surely if eubank jr and sr was confident that fight would be signed already eubank jr in terms of world boxing is nothing and yet he is still trying to be in the drivers seat i think he is embarrassing for British boxing
Not really surprised to be honest. I bet Eddie Hearn was a bit annoyed though, all the time invested in talks with GGG's team and Senior starts making excuses for it not to happen as soon as he gets chance after the Doran fight. I'm looking forward to finding out what goes on in that meeting on Monday.
Chris Eubank dodged a massive bullet not taking on GGG 3 years ago. He’s 37 now and IBF world champ having never even touched the canvas after fighting Canelo twice. Eubank got outclassed by an injured George Groves.
So the champion, the people that have the infrastructure to deliver the fight on ppv and the people that organise the venue etc have to play second fiddle to the challenger...
1:06 "first dollar that drops"? I love the Eubanks, but what the fuck is Senior talking about? What does 'first dollar that drops' even mean in this context? Surely a deal is signed where all parties agreed to what they get paid and that's all there is too it?
Eubank is a legend, if you don't have leverage you don't get change, English is trying to get change for all fighters , he might not get it for his son , but the subject is now on the table. GGG might be like but he does not do the ppv numbers otherwise this fight would be in another country and Eubank could not make this play.
I understand what he means about boxers being a priority. However, he needs to understand it's not just a fight, it's an event. If they don't fight, fight events will still happen. If he wants it to be all about the boxer, phone triple g, ask if he wants a fight in the backyard, arrange the time, date, contact the emergency services and charge everyone who comes to watch it.
What does Snr mean by "the first dollar that drops." So long as you get what you want out of the deal. That is it. When or how you get paid is another question
Say what you want. His dad was a real fighter. His dad got in the ring and gave it everything. Don’t talk unless you have the balls and/or credentials, his father has.
Sounds like there was a lot going on behind the scenes when trying to make this fight. AND lots of colorful and unusual personalities. Somebody should write a book about the details. I bet it'd be entertaining!
Personally i'm not a fan of Eubank snr but he does have a point, i think snr could make big changes in boxing the same way has Jackie Stewart did in F1. I've been to many fights over the years both amatuer and pro and its quite clear fighters can be dropped just like that!
Eubank looks a much improved fighter that could pose problems for any fighter but he's got to fight the best and take some risks. Give the fans the fight, suspect if oldman Eubank continues junior career is just to more frustrating. ..
And just like that, golovkin is ducked
YEP fucking pack of lying bullshit artists they cried for a Billy Joe rematch but when they offered it to him he turned it down and now its the same with GGG i think they though they could calling him out but that GGG would always be in big fights but now Canelo ducked GGG Eubank is the only guy to fight so now the Eubanks are looking very stupid i hope now people will wake up ive never believed he wanted that fight bcoz i watch a lot of interviews and if you watch so many of the same subject you start to see lies just like when you watch Khan interviews on why he wouldnt fight Brook watch a few of them and he uses different excuses just like eunbank who said in 1 interview i want it then on the same day in another 1 he said he wants it but in 2 years time.
I will remind you next week when the fight is made about your comments
Jim Jackson I hope you do mate i want to see the fight but i will also come back and ask you how did you believe what Eubank was saying about wanting the fight ? Eddie said they 48hours to make the fight so if it not out by Friday its not getting made i hope im the 1 that is wrong btw.
Jim Jackson
your hero will disappoint you
fredinabun ; Jr has nothing to lose he wins. He is a hero. .he loses every one will say they expected him to lose
I can’t understand why anyone could not like Eddie Hearn .
Junior looks like a kid who's dad is pissed at the school play
I'm still amazed anyone thought this fight would be made. What does 'the first dollar that drops' mean. Golovkin is the global star not Jr.
It means they want paying before sky and Eddie, not be sorted out afterwards.
He isnt saying ggg is getting the ";the first dollar that is dropped". Sky is, they take a cut in PPV sales and hes not happy with that but that's how its always been. Anyways this is just an excuse, they were never going to fight golovkin
GGG isnt a global star, he did 140k PPV numbers his last fight. Im not taking anything away from his ability, he is hands down the best pound for pound in the game right now, and i dont think its unreasonable for the eubanks to want a reward for a fight of such great risk

That's the first time I've ever seen Eddie Hearn lost for words 😂
I was just thinking the same thing🤣
😂😂 trust me
Who doesn't love listening to Chris Eubank Sr talk
He's not saying it's about money it's principles he's talking about fighters should be sorted out before the broadcasters (sky) and promoters. I respect what he's saying it's the fighter putting it on the line they should come first.
So basically to sum it up sky I believe and promoters are trying to sort out what kind of money they will generate before sorting out what the fighters should get hope this helps.
+Spiderfly Cheers. I didn't have a clue
Well if he don't like it he can fuck off and junior can get a job as a bin man, this is how boxing works, you get paid after the fight, they weren't demanding to get paid upfront b4 any other fight but all of a sudden they get the chance to fight ggg and payment is a problem?
+Spiderfly Yes Sky to get more and then decide what remains for the fighter which is rubbish. The fighter must make more before Sky or the promoter, so he has a point...
+ThisUserName15Taken Good point man👊
What a ridiculous thing to talk about. Seems like an excuse not to take the fight? Even Eddie is bemused by it all.
ridiculous???
+Kopend09 Yes.....!!
+Jonathan Williams do you agree that the network and eddie should get money first before the fighter?
+Kopend09 The network yes. As it's their platform that will ensure he makes more money. It's never been a problem before. I just see it as no reason to stop the fight happening. Especially when it's apparently so close to being made. If this is the excuse then Jr basically won't ever be able to box again as it's not going to change.
Hearn shouldn't get paid before any fighter but this is how boxing works, Eubanks are just dick splashes, they've been going on and on about the t ripple g fight but now the fight is offered to them there is a problem?
Just give him a dollar to shut him up please!
Eubank snr needs to set up his own promotion and broadcasting companies if he wants control and everything his own way.
imagine Eubank tv (ETV1)
Junior needs to get rid of his Dad as manager, his career has stalled and it will continue to do so if his Dad tries to bully the big corps,Eubank is not that bigger name to be calling the shots.
So to translate what Eubank Sr is saying he don't want Jr to sine a contract that says he only gets say, 1million no matter what.

I don't think hes being to unreasonable unless he's asking for like 60% hell that's how Mayweather made all his money.
Eubank is right....the boxer takes the risk...so is entitled to a lions share or at least decent money.
Andy Gayle yeah I agree mate, boxers are the ones potentially risking their life, sky is meant to be working for the boxer to promote the fight. Money breeds greed unfortunately
Andy Gayle agreed mate...but eubanks knows nothing about the business of boxing and neither letting his son be a future "patriarch"....he is deluded in ...himself. He is not fighting anymore....and his business iq is putting up ppv..
maybe u should by it???;) ...no mate i mean....its bollocks. They never wanted to fight ggg and if they did...jr will be sprawled out on the deck while senoir flicks a flea off his 'sartorial elegance'.
Andy Gayle yes but youve got to earn it
Andy Gayle. It's a buisness. Sky fund the fight not the eubanks.
id pay ppv for eddie and eubank behind the scenes talks
Why would u pay, when you already have it for free
"I've made a huge mistake" - Eddie Hearn
why do you always cut off chris eubank sr jealous he wont give you an interview is it kugan?
because he is a fool
Tom CFC i don't think he is he was a boxer himself so knows all about the business side hes doing whats right for his son IMO
Lee Mabiletsa ?
*unknown* yes but i think he is gonna use the money situation and make up shit to price themselves out of the ggg fight
I agree with lee i think eubank snr is saying all this stuff about his son being paid first and all that shit as an excuse to pull out of the fight if the terms dont 100% suit him
Tom CFC well i disagree their mayweather has been saying it for years its all about the fighters the ones who put it all on the line eubank jr deserves the first slice of the cherry and if sky wont agree to that then he should just move on and fight BJS in a rematch
Sky will invest in the fight and they will want to recoup their investment asap, then the profit will be shared with the fighters. If Eubank wants the 1st penny they should pay for the event.
well said
I actually agree with Eubank for once the man putting his life on the line should be payed first rather than a huge company with Billions ..
Those are the risks they agree to when they decide they want to become boxers...
But if the fight does horrible Eubank cant loose money. He may not make as much. But he cant loose. On the other hand the company can take a huge hit. Thats basic investment strategy.
They're gonna duck him aren't they :/
of course. they done the same thing with the BJS rematch. A lot of talking then wouldn't sign the contract. TWICE.
+zerolondon 100% correct mate ive just said the same thing they are total bullshita's and they want Britain to back them ? fuck off stop lying to us and we might back you take us for fools and you get fucked. they look like a circus act to me.
Notice he made a massive point of saying "If this fight doesn't happen, it's because of sky" he knew it wouldn't happen and trying to cover his tracks. They bottled it and everybody knows it.
poor old eddie, he's thinking "just take the fight ffs and stop throwing me under the bus"
watching THIS press conference is PPV worthy!
its very interesting seeing Mr hearn squirm,
good video ifltv. well done
+Lee Mabiletsa It would be good If IFL could film the Eubanks and Hearn at their Business meeting on Monday. Then we'll see the real Eubanks.
+Lee Mabiletsa spot on mate and are going to use this excuse to not take the fight they did the same last time around with hearn mentioned GGG then fought Tony jeter and spike o Sullivan and went and fought for a British title when the Jacobs fight was there fucking mongs the pair of them snr and jr

As long as his father is there, he will be overshadowed. He hardly spoke at the conference, he needs to get rid of him. Can't be a great when you are referred to as 'Junior'.
TrueMedia Rey Mysterious Jr , And Odell Beckham Jr aka juniors say hi lad.
TrueMedia floyd mayweather is the exception to that rule
asif awan his actually not an exception. The guy who made that statement is wrong that's all. He said you can't but Floyd Mayweather jnr is.
@@linusfrank9372 Floyd is the only exception to that name his saying.
He's right! Why they had a problem with that? Fighters take the risk and should be paid first, duh.
And here we are 4 years later and these 2 clowns are still bumping their chops and nowhere nearer to a title fight, delusional
Hes like one of them people you see in the queen vic every episode but dont speak
the art of ducking
For gods sake Eubank Sr. Is the most infuriating person in boxing to deal with
Was waiting for Eddie to pull his Eubank Impression haha!
Can anybody explain to deal with ifl and the eubanks?? Why wont they allow kugan access
Snr is not a fan of kugans profanity. That's what they say anyway, I reckon they're just a bunch of cunts.
Chris EUbank as usual loving the sound of his own voice which might be half bearable if he was half as smart as he thinks he is. stevie wonder can he's trying to live vicariously through his son and them some
Eubank Sr talks way more than Jr in every interview I've seen with the both of them there
Eubank doesnt want the fight. Hope I'm wrong cause I wanna see Golovkin smash him up but I don't believe team Eubank really want the fight.
hope it happens wanna see ggg beat that fool up
ive never believed he wanted it and even more so now this they "get out clause" if you like look at the billy jos thing he begged for rematch in public then when billy joe agreed and signed the contract Eubank walked away and fought Blackwell instead so he just name drops and tries to play the public and what i dont get is that Eubank snr is saying the British ppl should get behind us but if that is what you want dont fucking lie to us all the time. I loved Eubank snr back in the day and nothing will take away what he did in the ring as a fighter but now i just think what a fool man he is not even bright and clever its just an act.
No you were right after all
He ran from a mandatory with Jacobs. There is no way he actually wants GGG.
it's a fucking disgrace, that the fighters don't get paid first. it's them putting their lives at risk and doing the fighting.... .
eddie hearn the silence is killin me...
the first dollar drops? could someone please explain that to me in English.
I feel sorry for junior. His dads done him no favours
I disagree look at Conner benn situation when his dad just let him do his own thing instead of trying to save him from Dogdy people in boxing
How does it actually work when getting payed do you have to wait some time after the fight before you see any money ?
Back in the day it was rumored frank warrens fighters had to wait quite a while after the fight that's how eddies been able to pouch them. But don't quote me on that I know shite 😄
+J. Hodgson that frank warren taking a bit of a chance then because he's messing people around that hand out beatings for a living
+MrEleven1181 - PC Gaming In 1080p he did get shot 🤕
usually, however much money the fight has made. broadcaster takes a chunk, then what's left is divided between the fighters, then the promotion. eubank is saying, he wants the fighters to take the cut. then what's left divided between the broadcaster and the promotion, he's been fighting for this since he was still fighting, and sounds spot on to me
Tellingly, Frank Warren was shot a few years ago, and well known boxer Terry Marsh was acquitted of the shooting...
GGG is going to show Eubank Jr Levels... I hope he can keep up for the sake of the fight
eubank is box office people want to see him fight simple as that, love them or hate them their the facts!!!
i wanna see ggg beat him up thats the only reason id buy the ppv
Not strictly true; Eubank is not box office unless he fights world champions. Unlike Joshua.
+Nigel Reed well it's true then because heel fight ggg on box office and won't look back
+Mike Archibald I don't see him lasting long if this fight is made GGG is a hole new animal
+RLF online that's a money term if anyone thinks I'm trying to offend I'm not!!!!
Kuggie u need to start putting microphones near the press conference table, qualiTY low in most
Conference Videos
are they still with matchroom?
The one fact that proves Eubank snr is an impossible man to deal with is the fact that both Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren agree Eubank snr is a deluded idiot. Warren and Hearn detest each other and agree on nothing BUT they even express sympathy for one another on dealing with him. Eubank snr ducked the GGG fight on behalf of his son by asking for things that were never on the table.
He's too open for GGG. Golovkin will destroy him
When you try to move big money out of the hands of the controllers it will never go well. They will burn their own shit down before that happens.
Gotta play the game.
Alfie Nester It can happen' but First of you need to become a Household Word wide superstar like Mayweather and McGregor before you Try to call the shots and Eubank hasn't fought elite guys for that title
Well said. They need to go a few levels up before they get there. Too early
Ahsan Jamil Yes, right now they gotta play.. These guys will destroy his career before working with him if they push too hard to get exactly what he DESERVES.
Snr is right in what he is saying but no way would any broadcaster or promoter agree to do this.
Rafael is cool but rude and Michelangelo is a party dude ..... !!!
they never signed cause they bottled it
1:06 I've seen numerous 'explanations' on this thread of what 'the first dollar that drops' and none of them make any sense.
The promoter, broadcaster and fighter agree to divide the proceeds of the fight. There is no 'first dollar' dropping anywhere
It's gibberish
"The first dollar that drops." What does that even mean?
I've seen numerous 'explanations' on this thread and none of them make any sense.

It's gibberish
That man is gonna kill his son's career stone dead! Jr needs to get his head together before its too late.
And fighting ggg is not the way jr is going to do that
Eddie was so close to bursting out with laughter
The first penny that drops will be to golovkin
english is right fighter should be first this is what mayweather has been saying for years!!!
Am feelin that that some real Dad shit
🤣🤣🤣🤣..then eddie goes on to do chris snr impressions
What I don’t get is why didn’t Eubank fight GGG in September instead of Brook?
lol, Eddie Hearn has to negotiate and make everyone happy and Chris Eubank put him on the spot. He's like 'errr'.
British Boxing is alive and kicking , Let's Make Everyone Happy.
Money is always the problem when it comes to Eubank, and it's always someone else's fault.
What does he mean by the first dollar that drops???
Like Chris told his promoter the first day they me"I am a professional fighter and I know my worth." He changed the game for the better.
I hope he changes it for the better, with his son.
Look at Mike Watson. Why should he be broke and crippled while Hearn and TV are dripping in cash?
Chris Eubank is right. God bless him.
eddie is trying to hold his laugh in 😂
He's right ,pay up front if you want something.
Bless Eubank SNR he's not all there is he :(
everyone takes the risk, sky hearn & jr
He wants that photo and Barry Hearns wall too 😂😂😂
Dad!! let me speak! 😂
is right putting eddie on the spot,respect for that
surely if eubank jr and sr was confident that fight would be signed already eubank jr in terms of world boxing is nothing and yet he is still trying to be in the drivers seat i think he is embarrassing for British boxing
Can anyone explain what Eubank means by "The First dollar" ??
Not really surprised to be honest. I bet Eddie Hearn was a bit annoyed though, all the time invested in talks with GGG's team and Senior starts making excuses for it not to happen as soon as he gets chance after the Doran fight. I'm looking forward to finding out what goes on in that meeting on Monday.
eubanks Jr is very entertaining in the ring he has skills
Chris Eubank dodged a massive bullet not taking on GGG 3 years ago. He’s 37 now and IBF world champ having never even touched the canvas after fighting Canelo twice. Eubank got outclassed by an injured George Groves.
That fight would come way to early for Eubank because Golovkin is in full beast mode right now.
Senior can't dictate things until Junior build himself. You can't make requests at this stage in his career. His dad needs to take a back step
He clearly doesn't know how the system works, the fighters are never always at the forefront of every deal.
Junior looks like he's genuinely embarrassed by his dad
Eubank Snr was an awesome fighter.If anyone wonders why the jnr v GGG fight fell thru as of july 16 this video shows why.
So the champion, the people that have the infrastructure to deliver the fight on ppv and the people that organise the venue etc have to play second fiddle to the challenger...
1:06 "first dollar that drops"? I love the Eubanks, but what the fuck is Senior talking about?
What does 'first dollar that drops' even mean in this context? Surely a deal is signed where all parties agreed to what they get paid and that's all there is too it?
Eubank is a legend, if you don't have leverage you don't get change, English is trying to get change for all fighters , he might not get it for his son , but the subject is now on the table. GGG might be like but he does not do the ppv numbers otherwise this fight would be in another country and Eubank could not make this play.
Gonna save this for later just to dispute the shitstorm for when this fight doesn't get made.
With dad behind him, he can do anything.
Couldn't agree more. Well said Chris
I understand what he means about boxers being a priority. However, he needs to understand it's not just a fight, it's an event. If they don't fight, fight events will still happen. If he wants it to be all about the boxer, phone triple g, ask if he wants a fight in the backyard, arrange the time, date, contact the emergency services and charge everyone who comes to watch it.
Refused 80-20 split. Eddie said it himself.
What does Snr mean by "the first dollar that drops." So long as you get what you want out of the deal. That is it. When or how you get paid is another question
Say what you want. His dad was a real fighter. His dad got in the ring and gave it everything.
Don’t talk unless you have the balls and/or credentials, his father has.
I love eddie's reaction! In one video you see why Frank warren said what he said
The first dollar that drops should be for a paramedic
Wow Eubank then and Eubank now is a big difference he has for sure gotten bigger
Eddie looking at him thinking what a prat ahahhahahahhahaha
we'll see on Monday who's fkng about and who really wants it
agreed. fighters taking the risk of their life.
Sounds like there was a lot going on behind the scenes when trying to make this fight. AND lots of colorful and unusual personalities. Somebody should write a book about the details. I bet it'd be entertaining!
they wont take the fight, the biggest problem in jnr's career is snr
the first dollar that drops is always the most money common sense
Personally i'm not a fan of Eubank snr but he does have a point, i think snr could make big changes in boxing the same way has Jackie Stewart did in F1. I've been to many fights over the years both amatuer and pro and its quite clear fighters can be dropped just like that!
what difference does it make, first, last dollar, youre getting paid the same
Eubank looks a much improved fighter that could pose problems for any fighter but he's got to fight the best and take some risks. Give the fans the fight, suspect if oldman Eubank continues junior career is just to more frustrating. ..
