I'm not sure if a lot of the American guys follow ifl on YouTube but I remember watching an interview with Eddie Hearn that he was trying to shut his gob on big news in 2 weeks time - this was in reference to Matchroom USA and Jacobs. He mentioned that his American Outfit is going places but he can't say anything yet.
I wonder who he signed up this time?
I bet you it's someone like the Charlo Brothers.
Given the fights he has had recently and scheduled I presume he is going to get through Haye vs Bellew first. I think he then has a gap? Suspect the announcement will come maybe a week after that fight?
Hearn just like to ride the coattail of anything that is news worthy. He promotes his fighters with other fighters victories and spot light. He is no different than any of the other promoters.
He would need HBO to agree to overpay them the way they're overpaying Jacobs. They already regret the Jacobs deal, so I'm not sure they'd do the same thing for the Charlos.
The consensus among who? The promoters who have been left out in the cold by Haymon's business model? Clearly it's not the consensus among the fighters. Clearly it's not the consensus among the networks. Of course Hearn, De La Hoya and Arum are going to advocate for why fighters need a promoter. They're promoters! What do you expect them to say?
I agree. Unfortunately, as you can see on these boards, people support the promoters and what they stand for :lol1:
I wouldn’t doubt him getting the Charlo’s eventually.

The consensus, whether true or false, is that Haymon’s boxers need a promoter.

It won't be long now until Hearn has total dominion over the boxing world and all boxing fans will bow at the feet of the Great, Sir Edward Hearn. This is just the first step, just wait until he is crowned King of England!!
He still got one week left for his big, historic deal announcement lol.

And do you have a source for the major american signing? Havent found anything other than a thread at boxingscene with no source.

He never said a "major American signing", his quote was "looking to sign 2 dozen fighters"
I keep seeing these threads boasting about how Hearn is about to change the landscape. I haven't seen one damn thing that came close to living up to the hype since AJ fought Wlad. That was the last one. Supposedly, a major American talent was going to be signed a month ago. A deal that was going to "change boxing forever" was going to be announced 2 weeks ago. And, last week there was supposed to be a big signing, again...
If it were any other promoter, we could all have a laugh tougher. But, half this forum actually believes Hearn is some form of news outlet. :lol1:

I'll take that bet.
If he had the Charlos, he wouldn't be using Charlo's name to try to prop up Jacobs' failing career right now. He'd want the Charlos to be as big of a surprise as possible in two weeks.
I wouldn’t doubt him getting the Charlo’s eventually.
The consensus, whether true or false, is that Haymon’s boxers need a promoter. And he has allowed his fighters to sign with promoters even when he doesn’t think it’s a good idea.
So I could see him allowing that to happen with the Charlo’s. That would be a way for him to make inroads at HBO and still maneuver between networks.
Network or streaming service is my bet.
Probably propped up by alot of cash if that's the case.
Maybe he'll go the haymon route in his own way... Take the funds and use it to buy fighters and pay them disproportionate amounts to fight absolute ****.
Then it'll fail...and Hearn will have to go back to peddling darts and snooker
One thing you'll learn about hearn is this. His idea of hype and big announcement. Is disproportionate to the actual levels of hype. He's a promotor if a dog done a sh1t outside his office he'd make it seem like a velociraptor hatched "right in front of me" done a turd and ran off when he confronted it. Dinosaurs are long extinct but not according to hearn.

He's been seen at Mar-a-Lago in the company of the President. Rumour has it that he's bought the entire country, soon to be rebranded the United States of Matchroom. Citizens will become employees, entitled to 30% off compulsory matchroom ppv packages. Mt Rushmore is to be replaced with 4 Hearn's in various poses and the statue of liberty is to be remodelled to look like Katie Taylor.
this was in reference to Matchroom USA and Jacobs
Was it? he never gave any details, and the rumour I heard is that it's a broadcasting deal or streaming service.
