Taylor lost the hunger when he became undisputed and then inactivity hurt him. On top of that, now he can't even pull the trigger.
Time to retire or go back to the McGuigans to rediscover himself.
This is a great money fight for both men.
I think Eubank would win on points and Benn could come out of it OK and able to resume his career at 147 without much damage.
I don't see this as a Brook/GGG situation as Eubank will be weight drained and will dance his way to a win.
Ricky Hatton.
Lacks intelligence. I've a feeling he'd have been more successful if he relocated after the Tszyu win and went to train with Freddie Roach or something like that. Instead he got big headed and lazy inside and outside of the ring.

DAZN is running boxing.
DAZN loves Eddie Hearn.
OP looks like a fool.
Hearn putting all his eggs in the DAZN basket was a bad idea. Even in this day and age you want to have a proper tv presence. You cant bring in new/casual fans with an app unless that app has a wide range of different sports on it.
Hearn is running boxing all around the world thanks to DAZN. He is bigger than the UK.
Sky's days are numbered with their extortionate prices.
Did the threadstarter abandon his own thread?
Dumb thread anyway.
Wilder demanded a rematch with a guy who just KO'd him.
Not really how a coward acts.
I never called Wilder a coward. He has guts. I genuinely believe that he believed he could beat Fury, which is the only reason he kept going back to him.
However, he doesn't believe he can beat any other elite heavyweight. He ran from Whyte, AJ and now Ruiz even though it's an easy fight to make. He also used the 'nobody knows him' excuse when Usyk called him out a couple of years ago.
And dont to to me about Luis Ortiz. Ortiz was 50 years old with no notable wins himself and boxed Wilders head off for two fights - that's nothimg for Wilder to be proud of.
It's going to be a more competitive version of Haye vs Valuev with the smaller fighter proving to be too quick and cunning to get worn down by the bigger guy.
I can totally see Usyk flooring Fury too, and he will close out the show.
So we're just going to act like Spence didn't beat Danny Garcia and Yordenis Ugas after the car wreck?
Or are we pretending Danny and Ugas are bums too now?
They are.
Your comments are actually toxic to the sport. No real fan wants the fight to do bad.
Actually, they probably do.
Wilder/Fury is a circus act. They literally tried to con the public with their trash talk. I would much rather fans pay to see hard working, active boxers who consistently fight top 10 opposition. Furys last 2 fights were a joke. Wilder has made a career of fighting bums, cruiserweights and 45yr olds.
Neither men should just be allowed to use Joshua for publicity and make money for themselves.
We already had a circus act with Mayweather/McGregor, we don't need anymore. Trash talk has its place but inactive drug cheats and bum slayers should not be rewarded with big paydays. It's not good for the sport.
joshua wilder wouldnt do 1 mil in usa so this is another bs statement from hearn that the unintelligent fanboys gobble up
If it wasn't going to do 1mill in the US how the **** were they planning on paying Joshua $50m?
Wake up stupid. Joshua is big business.

I’m sure Danny Jacobs is next to bounce. Nobody even knows who he is anymore Eddie had him doing press conferences in restaurants lmao
DeGale came back but Eddie Hearn couldn't offer him what he wanted as he had invested in other super middleweights.
And what's DeGale doing now? He had to drop his damn title to avoid the mandatory because he can't even make good money defending it. Good move, James!
You got used by Haymon and now you are begging to use the Eubank name for a PPV payday. Dumbass.
What is there to talk about? Until you agree on money, there's very little to discuss. How can they agree on money without knowing how well Wilder's PPV does?
Whether Wilder sells 200k PPV, 600k PPV, or somewhere in between, totally changes his value.
Surely they have an idea of how the fight will do?
Fighters don't get minimum guarantees if there aren't ballpark projections.
Or are you admitting Wilder is taking a huge gamble?
I thought Haymon was supposed to be a genius businessman, who can guarantee $50m paydays and has put on the biggest fights in the world? And you're telling me he has no idea how much Wilder will generate in his next fight?
He’s no worse than you being a fan boy defending networks like you’re an executive or getting paid.
What networks have I defended?
Don't make things up.
Fury is ridiculously over rated
He's not. What he did to Wlad was special. He clowned him and made it look effortless.
I would be 100% sure he does the same to Wilder if he had the guidance of his Dad and Uncle but neither of them will be in America to keep his head straight.
So I think, combined with Tyson's inactivity against top opposition, I give him only 80% chance.
It's not a question of 32 shows being great or not, it's a question of Matchroom not having even one fighter the US cares about.
So nobody cares about Jarrell Miller now?
He's literally the second best heavyweight America has to offer and nobody cares about him?
More proof that Wilder doesn't want the fight.
He has never earned $3m but is demanding 50% against a guy that earns $25m+?
Nah. He's the biggest fraud in American boxing.
Jesus, with cards like this it’s a good thing DAZN has the WBSS
With 32 cards a year from Matchroom alone not every single one is going to be great is it? You have to be realistic with expectations.
If you're a boxing fan with nothing better to do you might watch it. Will it attract DAZN subscribers on its own? Not many I'm sure, only the people with an interest in the fighters on the card.
But the thing is I'm sure the people in charge know that. They already said in the first couple of years they are only aiming for the boxing hardcore anyway.
More and more people are seeing through WBCWBAIBFs bull**** now.
The account is paid to discredit PBCs biggest rivals and keep up a smear campaign and propaganda war against Matchroom. Why not mention Arum?
Pathetic.
As far as average boxing fans are concerned in the US, Miller doesn't even exist.
Then that says more for the state of American boxing than anything else.
David Allen has 60k followers and he hasn't even fought for a British title.
I didn't realize it was a competition to see who could televise the most boxing events. I was under the impression people subscribed to whatever services had the programs they were interested in watching.
You claim to do business with DAZN and want them to succeed.
Yet when somebody mentions there is more boxing content on it than any other platform you get all pissy and start bigging up Showtime?
We see through your BS.
You guys hate AJ, hate Hearn and now you hate DAZN. man y'all are stupid. DAZN is basically Netflix for boxing and it is great because we don't have to shell out $100 for a PPV any more. But somehow you guys are making that a bad thing. I bet if Al Hamon created it, you guys would say it was the best thing ever hahahahahahah
It's amazing. They had to pay $65 for Canelo v Smith, $70 vs Khan and Chavez Jr.
They just got Canelo v Fielding for free or $10 and so many people are willing it to fail.
Obviously, Deontay Wilder's heart has hardened. Joshua must have really injured him very deeply. He is harboring a lot of rancor and bitterness towards Team AJ.
In other words he is a woman.
Has any other boxer in history acted like such a feminine B side b.tch?
