    Weren't Usyk and Fury ready to fight but then Hearn/AJ aaked for another 5 mil in step aside money?
    Hearn always seems to be the problem.
    You're already a multimillionaire why are you asking for another 5 mil that you'll never use for multiple lifetimes.

      We had Ellerbe and Floyd say the same thing a month ago. And then we had that refusal to fight Loma for anything less than $5 million, when he fights JoJo for $1 million. Now Hearn is saying this, and then Lou is saying this. We also have Kambosos saying this. Everyone is saying this, and when everyone is saying it, it has a funny way of being true.
      I heard Devin Haney Sr. come out after that, and said "money will not be an issue!" Basically it's Haney or Ryan Garcia! If GBP wins, I put that on Eddie!

        At this point, I don't believe a word coming out of Bill or Devin's mouth. It's become obvious that they say one thing to the public and another behind closed doors. It's their strategy to get as much money as possible while trying to do PR damage control on Haney's image. We are now at a place where every single promotional company has said that Haney prices himself out. Every single one. Every single one BUT Devin Haney Promotions.

          I've never heard PBC, or Ellerbe say that! I wish those two could make Tank vs. Haney! That's what I would LOVE to see! Hearn would have to be totally out of the picture though!

            Honestly I used to find Eddie quite funny when he would roast these old promoters but over the last couple of years it's started to become obvious that he needs to make some attempt to fix his relationship with some of them, because it's costing his fighters, and the fans good fights.

            Matchroom aren't "in trouble" but imo they could be doing significantly better is Hearn had better relationships with other promoters, and even DAZN I think suffered due to Hearns braggadacious nature leading to all the other promoters allying to take him out.

            He needs to quiet down for a bit and let some of the other promoters start to fued. I see that Arum is fronting most of the cash for Fury vs Whyte, I doubt Fish eyes will ever pay that back so they will fall out soon.

              Yeah. If Hearn calls, they don't even answer the phone. I think Ellerbe said he's going to punch Hearn if he sees him.

              Anyway, I can't find the original, but I saw it, so it's out there. I'll just post Fannon because he's referring to those statements. You can see it here:

                Definitely no love lost between Ellerbe and Hearn! Haney has to ask himself, "What am I getting out of this relationship?" We'll see if he gets a fight with Kambosos?

                  Bob does hate Eddie but they still do business. I think Eddie gets on well with the Top Rank number 2 forget the name??

                  Warren and Eddie do exchange low end fighters, Eddie seems to get on ok with the Warren sons just Frank. I think Frank should retire also like Barry Hearn did (he was awful to).

                  Maybe promoters should have a maximum age limit :-)

                    You are a grown man who tried to use a mother joke? I didn’t see this at the time. But I’m glad I have.

                    If you’d of read the article, then read the comment I replied to, it included Hearn.

                    I made points you wasn’t comfortable arguing or disproving, then you say it’s an obsession and he’s done our mothers.

                    Mush, that’s worse than a female. You was all fine and dandy telling everyone how great he is etc.

                    Anyone who comes out with truth and facts aren’t a hater and don’t have an obsession.

                    What’s your obsession with arum? You spam every comment section with the EXACT same comment verbatim at this point aswell.

                    Why do you lot do this? You claim something, then when anybody shows you that you’ve got it wrong, you resort to petty name calling and telling people there obsessed?

                    Just hold ya hands up and say “I didn’t know that” or “well you’ve taught me something today mate”

                    You act as though you have pride left to get in the way of you doing that.

                    madness. Bob arum doesn’t lose any sleep over Matchroom. I actually thought I was starting to like you aswell.

                    Point is, if you honestly tried disrepecful jokes to my Face id abduct you and end in me flaying your face and dropping you Off back on your doorstep. So let’s not play those games. Just stick to boxing.

                      These people would sell their first born if there was enough money on the table. You really think they won't do business over slightly disliking each other?

                      If there's a deal they want to do, they'll do it.

                      You're buying into marketing. It's media stuff that they fuel to maintain interest in then and their fighters.
