Comments Thread For: Hearn on Khan-Brook: Will I Sit Down and Watch It? Probably Not; Both Guys Are Finished

[JuniorTorres720]

Hearn is spot on. I don't care much for their back and forth arguing at press conferences. It's definitely a money grab. Guys are at the end of their careers and who's gonna give them this much money without a lot of risk at this point in their careers? I wouldn't be surprised if it the fight itself ends up being relatively tamed with both fighters never really pressing the action. I would be surprised, however, if a war breaks out between two aging fighters that legitimately don't like each other. We'll see. The only way this fight is interesting is if both guys are seriously looking to come out on top on the other side of this rivalry.

A normal person would come to the realisation that sometimes it’s best to say nothing for young Edward here. Voicing an obvious lie making him look totally obnoxious and the epitome of the Aesop’s Fable of the Fox and the G****s just makes him look like a proper gobshyte. Who knows how successful his dayzin venture would have been if he would just shut the f up sometimes especially about issues that have nothing to do with his promotion.

Nothing to suggest either guy is not in their peak. So cause Brook lost to Golovkin, Spence, and Crawford, all much better fighters than him he is past prime? Or that Khan lost to Canelo and Crawford? Nonsense. This is the best version of Khan and the best version of Brook. Nothing to suggest otherwise. Both top tier athletes, 35 not 50. Prime vs prime. No excuses. The winner is the best out of the two of them and probably gets a shot at a world title. All this past prime crap is so convenient. Yeah, no losses count cos past prime, yada, yada. This fight is on PRIME TIME cos these guys are so peak. Nash out.

Although Nash saying both guys are peak is a bit of stretch I do think it's a 50-50 fight and the winner gets a big payday against Connor Benn. If they manage that win then a title shot could possibly happen considering how the sport works backwards are times.

This is the equivalent of Spence vs. Crawford...in 2025!

Agreed here. The best thing he could say about a rival promotion sometimes is nothing. The winner of this fight could be a damn fine name on Connor Benn resume but saying this hurt his own promotion of that fight and he will likely be called out on it if he manages to make that fight now.

Damn, Eddie! Tell us how you really feel!

I want to see how "Young Edward" does with Montana Love. I think the kid might be better than Conor Benn! If Montana can make 140 easily, Eddie should make Mikey Garcia, or Devin Haney vs. Montana Love! If Montana struggles at 140, he should have Montana fight Conor Benn in the U.S.! I don't know how you feel, but I think if Eddie can't secure Haney vs. Kambosos, and the 2 fight deal for Canelo, I think DAZN might fold? I don't think Joshua, Ryan Garcia, and Munguia, are big enough to keep it afloat, and there are rumors GBP is looking to go elsewhere.

Hearn is the type of guy to ask a bird out then when he's rejected by the bird he says he didn't fancy her anyway.

DAZN gonna fold regardless. No one watches DAZN. I don’t know one person who owns a DAZN subscription and the fact they are paying GGG 100 million to fight szermeta Steve rolls and get beat up by dervychenko should tell u they aren’t loading up on subs. Espn+ has Disney and people watch espn because it’s ESPN. Young Edward conned those good folks at DAZN lol

However anybodies opinion this is going to be very entertaining fight. these two really hate each other and neither wants to lose. i can't wait for the weigh in as well.

And for all of Khan's faults, I never recall him being in a boring fight.
