    Is eddie hearn the best promoter right now?

    He seems to be able to get top guys in the ring at a higher rate than other promoters--less politics.

    Seems more genuine about getting the best fighting the best

    This is true but DAZN is by far the worst place to watch a fight I'd much rather watch a fight on espn, showtime or fox. Eddie seems to have no problem working with the other promoters but look Bob and Al have been bringing good fights lately, Fury vs. Wilder, Bud vs. Porter, and now Big Marcus vs. Beterbiev.

      - - Obviously Fast Eddie.

      Has the best two heavies in the queue along with Canelo who trump all others.

        He’s got most of the top middleweights and non of them are fighting each other so I’d say no.

          It's like asking which STD is the best one to catch.

            It's hard to tell, the PBC protection and slander way of promoting could be genius. They hide from real fights and make good money. Hearn seems to want to put his fighters in tough career defining fights but they sometimes lose those fights.

              No.

              -Never made a big fight in America.

              -Failed to make any major traction in the US.

              -Has consistently failed to work alongside other promoters to make the best fights.

              -Failed to secure AJ a super fight with either Fury or Wilder.

              It’s between Arum and Haymon. (I know he’s an advisor but we all know who pulls the strings.) I’d probably go with Arum.

                He pays his fighters well to fight bums so in that regard he is a good promoter. But the fights he puts on suck ass.

                  It's crazy how this guy gets a free pass for not making inhouse fights. Other promoters get killed for not working together but Hearns can't even get guys in his own stable to fight each other.

                    He's probably the most likely of the bunch to make fights with the other promotors in the US, but the least likely in the UK.

                    All just Politricks.

                    What I will say is that Matchrooms schedule is the most consistent of the lot (even if not the very biggest fights), Eddie is EVERYWHERE, if I was being promoted, he's exactly the type of promotor I would want, dude works overtime, all the time.
