Eubank Promoter: We're Not Waiting Around For Benn; We Want Golovkin Next Year

Post by apollo creed »

“We’re not waiting around at all,” Sauerland told iFL TV. “Putting plans in place for scenarios. At the same time, of course, we’re looking at this investigation that I believe was already underway.”

“Billy Joe, of course, next year, is a name,” Sauerland said. “Our number one target, as everyone knows, is Golovkin for 2023. All those fights are very make-able. Saw Kell Brook up here at the gym the other day … I never know if that’s real or not. We’ve been down that road before. He looked like he needs to shift a bit of weight. Saw somewhere he might be ready in February or March. Junior will be out sooner than that.”

“We want the big fights,” Sauerland reiterated. “And the big fights, like I said, the top of the pecking order is Golovkin. It always has been, always will. But there are other big fights that don’t involve a belt. We’ve got lots of options. The good thing is it’s not a situation where there’s no options — there’s loads of options. We’ll just work out what the best ones are for Junior."

Of course that the most wiser thing to do for G is to retire but if he is still feeling good and healthy then Eubank Jr in UK would be the biggest money fight at mw for GGG.

Eubanks lost their pen back in 2016 but now that G is 40+ y/o , maybe Eubank Jr would have a pen to sign the contract. :OhYes:

Now that GGG has to fight Lara and Falcao as mandatories, he could dump those belts and fight Eubank Jr in UK at any weight he wants. They could fight at 165 lbs.
