Seeing this news on Twitter. Apparently at middleweight

I don’t really get it. They’re with the same trainer and I can’t see where the money would come from to pay each of them what they’d likely want.

I sarastically said on Eubank's instagram 'I'm looking forward to your actual next fight against Jimmy 'Kilrain' Kelly.'

Now feel a bit daft as this is actually allegedly a goer.

It's just talk. Unless it was England, it would sell poorly. I don't see Bud coming here when two judges had his fight with Ricky Burns at 116-112.

Makes perfect sense - Does good business & gets people thinking you never know. Thee Errols*xual's won't be happy lol.

It would sell out the O2 and do 300-400k buys in the U.K. It won’t do much at all on US PPV if it’s afternoon over there. Fury/Ngannou reportedly only did 60k buys in the US and this wouldn’t be as big as that.

So they’d probably be able to generate £10m revenue in the U.K.. Crawford reportedly got $10m for fighting Avanesyan.

I’m still struggling to see how this adds up.

Seems a dumb fight to make.
Bud not particularly big at welter, I don’t want to see him hit by a middleweight.

I’d much prefer to see him establish his greatness at his real weight class, not size handicapped fighting a big palooka like Eubank. Who he’d probably beat anyway, as he’s not anywhere near Buds class, but it'd prove nothing, though he’d prob ship some damage in doing so, over 12 long rounds

hope this does not happen personally, think it just affords Eubank chance to be a weight bully.

It doesn't. And won't. IMO.

If it’s Crawford he will get spanked
