Imagine having serious talks with a Saudi Prince for a multimillion dollar fight

Cong**** on being out of the closet I guess?

While the promoter of the other guy is badmouthing you and entered negotiations for a fight he knew might not even take place. Arum knew arbitration could be a problem but told Hearn otherwise. I'm not big into Joshua or Fury but damn that's ridiculous when you think about it.

We don't know that its a problem though,Fury can likely just ignore the ruling. It has no teeth,hes a uk uk citizen as is AJ,he can fight in Aug,& winner would be undisputed,then even if stripped by September it wouldn't matter that the rematch wasn't for full undisputed,& then Fury can retire & maybe pay Wilder damages covered by SA Princes pockets. Fury can also just pretend injury & then fight AJ anytime after Sep for all we know

I'm curious why Eddie didn't think it was an option when most fans knew it was.

Eddie told us 11 months ago the terms of the fight were “agreed” and the fight was “all but done”. Kind of feels like he was lying.

Whaaaaat? Not Eddie! This is all Bob’s fault, you know, the guy who everyone was complaining about for not doing anything, probably because he knew this was an option.

Eddie’s word is gospel man. His legion of fans tell us all the time.

this is why im a fan of eddie hearn. take him out of boxing and it's a horrible sport i would not be watching week in week out. i would watch big fights and ignore all the other crap.
these other promoters are horrible people.

matchroom cards, the matchroom bubble, the media work around matchroom events, it's the main reason to watch it.
the rest are all just spoiling it with their constant agendas.

I've been saying that. Eddie Hearn has been the best promoter in the last couple of years. Only promoter really trying to make matches that fans actually ask for. Or even remotely close to trying. It's only him. Who else is making fights happen? Someone refresh my memory. The guy got Canelo, GGG, Jacobs, Andrade to DAZN to get them to fight each other. He puts his guys in fights they can lose, vs guys he doesn't even have exclusive rights to. Instead of building up his fighters. He doesn't care about marinating.

At some point other promoters will have to step it up. Because it appears like Hearn is the only one pushing for fights.

And look, I can be called a PBC fanboy and all. But honestly, I have ESPN+, Showtime, and DAZN, and just being neutral, DAZN beats them out. PBC is not bad, and their upcoming fight schedule looks like it's heating up. Great comeback with Figueroa-Nery. But I would like to see consistency with PBC/Showtime/Fox.

So what has Eddie gotten out of this? Like what exactly about this benefits him? That's what I don't get. Hearn is a weasel but I do think he works hard.

doesn't get anything out of it. He just jumped the gun, like Frank when he made the Chisora/Wilder press conference.

Don’t we got a know it all guy who actually works for them?

I got phone interviewed for a job... didn’t get it m
