Comments Thread For: Hearn Shakes Head at Briedis Chasing Jake Paul: Get Real, Go Fight Okolie!

Hearn shouldn't even mention briedis. He screwed him over in the past. When bellew beat makabu for the vacant title the winner was ment to fight briedis.

Bellew had his 1st defence against flores even though he wasn't in the top 15 (to build the haye fight) they kept stringing briedis along then eventually went in a different direction altogether (haye). I would be surprised if briedis did business with hearn.

Absolutely spot on - Hearn knew very well Breidis would smash up Bellew and the Haye fight was ruined and he would not earn his millions
Breidis deserves a decent payday this late in his career so i have no issue with him trying to get that fight.

Eddie makes a great point here. Lawrence isn’t much better himself though, hardly fought a live body has he!

Facts. Look at Okolie’s next opponent. He’s cherrypicking Makabum’s leftovers lmao.

Okolie would get wrecked by Briedis. No one at cruiser will beat him right now. He's too good.

He deserves a decent payday as the best fighter in an overlooked division.

Yup! Tony fought Flores, and he had breidis fight Simon Valilly, Eddie and bellew prayed for a Hail Mary, had it come theyd of had Bellew-Valilly before Simon could of had a post fight shower!

But this what Eddie does, it’s all a perception game with him. He’s only got roughly 6-7 Months left before he’s irrelevant. Back to being Canelo slave for free hats tequila and pictures. I personally cannot wait!

I have been saying this since the Pauls showed up on the scene. They are headlining PPV events with pretty impressive sales. Showtime is backing his events!!!! I said more established will be looking at fighting on his events. Here we have it Breidis one of the best CW looking to cash in on the circus…

I remember, it is something you’ve said more than once.

The reason I find it silly is that he's obviously not getting the Paul fight. So he's acting cringe for no benefit at all.

It’s a bad look for sure. Stinks of desperation.

Not sure if the tattoo is real, either way, bad look.

Jake Paul is no great fighter and he’s no idiot.

Briedis is a damn good fighter but if he thinks Jake will fight him, he’s an idiot
