    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.
    Yup. BJS is no joke. I think he'll give Canelo his biggest test at the weight.

          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?

          The haters want to criticise his matchmaking.

          What they should be doing is putting forward the promoters who are consistently putting on better shows than he does, but they can't.

              Parker is a contender. Like Whyte, like Usyk, like Joyce. Chisora is a gatekeeper and a damn good one. People always moan that the contenders don't fight each other and are just waiting for a payday against the champion ( see Plant waiting for Canelo instead of fighting Benavidez and the cluster**** that is welterweight matchmaking etc etc) - well here you have a contender fighting a gatekeeper - no complaints here - same deal with Povetkin and Whyte especially 1st fight.
              I hear you....but Sky boxing is already a subscription channel the PPv slots which are separate should be saved for the better events or why bother?! Chisora v Parker and the two mismatches should never be on a PPv platform he's taking the pi.ss.!!

                Only Hearns brainwashed fans will agree with him. They'll come out and defend him and his rip off lacklustre ppv's.

                These guys are either gullible, idiots or brainwashed. How can you not see you have been getting conned by Eddie.

                  His old man set the blue print having Eubank sr. defend against the likes of Tony Thornton (the punching postman) when Mike McCallum and James Tony were there but never got a mention (Wilder springs to mind!). Edward is a silver spooned lad who has done well for himself and some of his boxers for that credit is due . Unfortunately a lot of that has come at the expense of fans being ripped as his PPv on Saturday clearly shows. He's taking a lot of mugs for a ride here who pay for this shyte and as long as the do .................you know the story.

                    Eddie Hearn is a freaking idiot!! Nobody wants to fight Andrade because he’s boring and has no fans!!! Dazn had canelo and ggg and jacobs. And they all agreed Andrade is boring!!!
