Chris Eubank Jr threatens to ‘rip away’ Gennady Golovkin’s titles

Chris Eubank

CHRIS EUBANK JR has sent a message to Gennady Golovkin, the WBC, WBA and IBF middleweight champion. Golovkinโ€™s representatives and Eddie Hearn, Eubanksโ€™ promoter, are in negotiations. To add fuel to the fire, Eubank Jr issued a warning to Golovkin on Twitter.

After Gennady mused, โ€œWhoโ€™s ready for a fight? Whoโ€™s next?โ€ย Eubank wrote back to him, declaring, โ€œYou already know who and what’s next. I’m next and your belts are going to be ripped away from you and kept in the UK for a long time.โ€

Eubank Jr had previously announced: โ€œThis isnโ€™t about money. This is about achieving my dream of becoming world champ and proving that Iโ€™m the best. This is about legacy.โ€

Chris is the holder of the British middleweight crown and has one loss on his record, a 2014 reverse to Billy Joe Saunders, who went on to win the WBO world title. Golovkin is the most impressive fighter in the middleweight division though a defining fight against the likes of Canelo Alvarez has so far eluded him.
