I didn't mean it as against you. I just wish there was some tech to limit posts or wordcounts. Not that I agree with limiting people's free speech but EO is a special person who deserves special treatment.

As a warning, the thread should have a automatic sub-heading: 'EO active in this thread', so that we can all avoid it.

I appreciate that suggestion however I've noticed the whole topic gets derailed and the quality posts cease. Essentially the thread is ruined. LOL about the 5 minute per post scroll.

This thread never mattered much anyway. Eubank wants to fight Golovkin. You get it all in the title.

Mate, it's fking ridiculous. It's just repetition ad nauseam. You can't argue that way in public (physical public) you would be bashed. You can't argue that way in court. Therefore...you shouldn't be able to argue that way here.

TO EO: Ok great, you have an opinion. OK great it's different, cool. We've heard you, great, grand, wonderful. Some people may agree with you, great, grand, wonderful. Unfortunately I'm not persuaded. I'm sorry. Time to move on.

And by the way guys, while I fully understand everyone's frustration with EO. As you can see, I don't like him either. I can't just ban him for being an annoying douche. He doesn't really break any rules. Being a jackass, however annoying, isn't in and of itself against the forum rules.

That being said, if some other moderator just gave his ass the boot I wouldn't argue against that. I just don't wanna be the guy to do it because it's well known that I don't like him.

Wouldn't be prudent as George Bush Sr. would say.

Golovkin recently faced Vanes Martirosyan, Steve Rolls and Kamil Szeremeta.

And GGG deemed Chris Eubank Jr. as a worthy opponent during 2016.

Eubank Jr. beat, James DeGale, Arthur Abraham, Matt Korobov, Anvi Yildrim, Dmitry Chudinov and dropped very close decisions to Grove and Saunders.

Let’s assume GGG agrees to face Eubank Jr. in April and somehow manages to beat the Brit, it would almost certainly be Golovkin’s best legitimate victory in the last four years.... by a proverbial country mile!

And let’s face it, even the majority of GGG’s die-hard fans feel he lost the Derevyanchenko fight.
I didn't think either fight was all that close.
Off the top of my head I think I probably gave him 4 rounds vs BJS and about 2 or 3 rounds vs Groves (I also feel he should have had a knockdown scored against him).

But overall I agree with your point, Eubank would be a reasonable opponent for GGG.

I do feel he needs a win on his ledger before the fight gets made though, even just to get his name back out there a bit.
Are his most recent bouts not wins?
Yes, but the most recent was over a year ago and wasn't exactly a memorable fight.

I just think he needs to fight again soon, win, look good doing so and then call out GGG in the post fight interview.

lets be honest , im not saying ban anyone , but dudes been banned around here plenty just cuz ppl dont like them, not because they broke any rules or continually hijacked every f@Cking thread.

and the rules are applied loose anyway, isnt it a rule dudes cant have alts, but we know about dudes on here with several accounts. and its not a rule that you cant post about wilt vs ali, but then dudes going on about that get the ax.

it basically what ever the mod feels like at the time tbh, whatever whim theyre on

Or he could just fight GGG right now.

People know who Eubank Jr. is.

If Steve Rolls or Szeremeta or whatever were worthy of a shot then Eubank is too.

Most definitely.

Long winded posts, never admits he's wrong, never admits he's bias toward certain fighters, and just generally doesn't act like a guy who has any friends or has ever gotten laid in his life.

I find it kind of funny

An expert on boxing business who didnt know half of ppv revenue goes to the carriers

AN expert who cant do an x and o breakdown to save his life and doesn't really seem to watch many fights

An expert and internet lawyer who by his own admission complains about 10 buck ppvs

Remember his breakdown during the last GGG fight?

It's been so long I don't remember, but I'm pretty sure he kept hurling insults at people who disagreed with his Ali bashing.
