Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn: Boxing Can't Afford **** Fights Anymore; It'll Kill The Sport

[removed]

Warren puts on better fights than Hearn.

How Hearn can say this stuff with a straight face is beyond me.

I would love 1 or 2 subscriptions channels showing all the fights with no PPV. Have more WBSS type events. I’d happily pay $30 bucks a month for this.

This all day.

Hearn should take his own advice...

Sincerely, Andrade vs Williams, ect, ect, Haney vs Gamboa/Linares, ect, ect, Chisora vs Parker, ect, ect, and on and on....

Williams tested Andrade so was good matchmaking. Linares is a big step up for Haney so a good matchup. Chisora Parker is just a decent matchup - not terrible at all.

Also, most people are more interested in watching their favourite fighters win than they are in watching good, 50-50 fights unfortunately.

My take is he is saying he is frustrated. That and the is deflecting attention away from the Arum/Warren criticism for not having presented a binding contract.

He can't force Golovkin to fight Andrade. Golovkin at this stage just wants good paydays by the look of it. Parker wanted a quick turnaround after the Fa fight and maybe their weren't too many options but credit to Chisora - he's fucking game. It's not PPV but we are without crowds still so that is a huge factor.

End result Fast Eddie gets quoted and what comes out of his mouth is second to the truth. Promoters got to stop protecting there fighters, this "cross the street" talk has got to be exposed for what it is everyone making money and blaming it on that imaginary line and each other. Until they the promoters and platforms start working together and respect boxing not just the dollar it will stay the same. National Commision, some type of unifaction not run by fake belts not willing to make ...... ah what is the use he got his name out there for a day and divert from the problems of boxing. I still believe the fight fans could force the hand of any and every promoter and platform. Just Boycott the PPV garbage and the fights get there attention real fast like we got to make it our job to get them to do there jobs. Fun stuff huh ?

I'll tell you what Chisora is. Cheap. If Parker sparks him, he'll be cheaper next time.

It's amazing.
Hearn, who is unquestionably the most active promoter in the world today, states the blindingly obvious and people fall over themselves to sling **** at him. What's benefit of that? Do you think it will help boxing? Do you think it will stop him trying to build his business? In fact, wtf is the point of it?

Says the guy putting Chisora v Parker on PPV and letting Bivol and Eubank smash up a domestic level fighter and journeyman on the undercard.

clenelo vs fielding, Smith ,Yildrim and Saunders doe!!!

nothing wrong with Canelo v BJS and Smith.

Smith wasn’t good enough on the night but was a world champ, ring magazine belt holder and undefeated.

Saunders is an undefeated 2 weight world champ and will give Canelo problems, you’ll see.

Yildirim was a mandatory, somehow.

Rocky Fielding was a joke of a fight though, that’s true.

The problem for Canelo is he has entered that status now like Mayweather had where he can fight very credible opponents and people give him no credit still, Even though other fighters would get massive credit for those fights.
