Captain Obvious speaking here Eddie but haven't Andrade and Golovkin both been under contract with dazn for quite sometime? Yet no noise about getting that fight, or why hasn't it already happened?

Can't take Hearn's comments at face value (love to see the details of that $7 million offer to Charlo) and Andrade hasn't always helped himself get the big fights over the years.

All that being said, I'd love for him to fight Charlo or Munguia. GGG doesn't really move the needle for me as he seems to be a part time fighter these days and most likely not the same fighter he once was.

Boxing is not the problem, you are! If your fighter can't get good fights, he needs to get a new promoter. That simple. Why don't you try to get Andrade
on non-PPV events (free tv) so that he gets more exposure. No one really knows who Andrade, even among hard-core boxing fans.

As much as I would like to see Charlo vs. Andrade, if Charlo really wants Canelo, then David Benavidez should be priority #1! If they paired that with Charlo vs. Castano II, you have a very nice PPV event!

"That's the problem with boxing" but he promotes both of them, and he is one of the top promoters in boxing. He should have said, "that's the problem with me, and also, with Al and Bob. We're all in this together to create the illusion of scarcity in each of our boxing divisions so that, by breaking the pool up into three smaller pools, we can get away with selling boxing fans watered down crap until such a time as we have built up a big PPV fight, at which point suddenly we can all work together again, publicly this time I mean, to make the PPV."

Just my opinion, anyway, of how it works.

But Charlo is hoping to be invited up to 168 for some canelo $$$ without having to do any real work or take any risks!

Benevidez v Charlo; winner has a chance at Alvarez next September!

Doesn't Hearn promote Golovkin? Why hasn't he made him fight Andrade yet?

As for Jermall Charlo--his next fight should be Benavidez or Andrade or Golovkin. Otherwise why should fans care about his career?

Look at Usyk. He beats Eddys guy and now he's on the shelf waiting for a rematch, he can't get a payday while Eddy tries his best to get him beat. Look at Andy, he beats Eddys guy and winds up in the Sahara. Look at Lara, he beats Eddys guy and gets unwelcomed in Leeds. Look at Povetkin, he beats Eddys guy and Eddy drags him out of the hospital to the arena. Not only they have to beat Eddys guy twice, the second time, the fix is worse. Now he has a stable of guys "everybody is scared to fight".

Well Reynosa said Canelo would fight Makabu, then GGG. Id imagine GGG is not gonna take the 10 million plus pay cut and skip a legacy fight to fight Andrade, PAYDAY, you want payday, is ruining the sport
