Comments Thread For: Hearn on Andrade Moving Up to 168: 'We've Got to Try and Make Something Happen'

[Bronx2245]

What do all those guys have in common? Meanwhile, Eddie Hearn is sucking Canelo off, and trying to get Bivol and GGG fights with Canelo. He has already gotten Luke Campbell repeated shots at championship fights. What's wrong with this picture? I've already known that Hearn was the biggest liar in boxing and now I know he's a racist, too.

I'm not willing to say that because he's done well for Joshua, Chisora, and Whyte! Maybe he just can't get it done in the U.S., representing American fighters?

GGG finally going to 168 hmm obvious chasing the winner of ggg vs canelo 3 magically wasnt charlo talking bout 168 if not please go fight eubanks jr shut him up get some euro fans in the process then take serious fight carlos adames

Totally agree with you. I feel Andrade deserves a big fight but he needs to drop the self-pity routine and get creative to make something happen. Say what you want about Eubank Jr but he seems game to fight anyone: Andrade should ask Hearn to let him do a BOXXER-promoted fight with Eubank Jr. There’s plenty of other avenues he can take besides whining about Canelo, Charlo, GGG and Munguia ducking him (though it IS disgraceful that Munguia won’t take a title shot against him).

I’m of that mind that he just doesn’t really care for his American fighters abs I’ve pointed out in the past how nationalistic he has been stating he wanted British fighters to beat American fighters simply because of nationality. If these American fighters want to sign with someone like that it shows how unintelligent they are. They make their beds, they get to lie in them with this bigoted scumbag

Boo-Boo either needs to leave or have Hearn put up some serious money to get a big name for him to fight. He needs a war to display his full skill set against a big name opponent. He is the WBO champion why would he have to fight in a eliminator just push to be the mandatory off the rip and get you another belt at 68' then do the same thing at 75' forcing a fight with Canelo. Hearn needs to get him someone great and fast or he'll lose him to PBC by the end of the year.

Supposedly there very good friends.

Hate when they do this. Parker and Fury are being like this too.

US is an extremely hard to market boxing non stars. So many other mainstream sports take the oxygen. And there isn’t that weird little brother Nationalism you that Eddie @ Fish Eyes can exploit in Britain. US population is 320M. They are spoiled. And of course Andrade has a crap resume and not a KO artist

That's like saying a barber is racist because he can't cut black hair. Eddy doesn't know the audience and he's not hanging out to learn. I agree, he's unsavory, but he'll sign anybody and pull levers, black or white.

Boxing is just as niche in "Britain" as it is in America it gets dwarfed by Football, Rugby, Cricket, tennis Christ even bloody badminton is more popular then boxing, boxing doesn't even make it even the top 10 most popular sports... Don't know why people are under some illusion it's a major sport it isn't.

This guy is nearly 34 what is doing trying to make moves now? He's wasted his whole career hiding fighting bums while claiming everyone is avoiding his pillow-fists.

Why not just carry on as you are for the last remnants of a totally forgettable career.

He's a nobody at the age of 34. There is a good reason for that.

[El Más Loco]

Hearn has absolutely failed Andrade.
