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

[Fact]

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.

I hate Eddie Hearn as much as anyone else but speculating about DAZN folding is going to the other extreme, they are a global organization with presence in 200 countries. We are not talking about PBC or matchroom here. Just checkout their sports rights around the world: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DAZN#Programming

Oscar has also been talking good about DAZN lately, so looks like another 3 year extension is on the cards. Matchroom has secured a massive deal with DAZN which Sky Sports was not able to match. As long as Sir Len Blavatnik is backing it there should be no problem: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Len_Blavatnik

This is one bitter clown.. always crying on about everyone else’s fighters

Seems like Eddie forgets when Kell stood up and fought GGG. He saved eddies bacon with that fight. And brook did EVERYTHING for Matchroom. He would tweet every single fight night and pin tweet every PPV. He was the Ultimate Loyal “Company” man.

Eddie see’s U.K. fighters as H00kers. Thinks that they’re nothing without him and he made em. Doesn’t respect the sacrifices a fighter makes, he’s never known what hunger is.

Spent his daddies money and got babysat by N0nces like Epstein as a young nipper, Couldn’t really expect anything else from Hearn.

The man is a disloyal snake. The same guy who says:

“I don’t have a contract with Dillian because I’ve never felt the need to, were mates”.

bitter, pampered man child is what Hearn is.

Damn, now that's a brutal character assassination.

If he was babysat by Epstein as a child doesn't he deserve some sympathy?

The abuse he would have suffered must have been hard. Show some empathy! Dont victim blame lol

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

I have one, but if Canelo signs a 2 fight deal with PBC, I'll be done with them! Joshua has been a disappointment! Ryan Garcia is a hot mess! Devin Haney can't get a real fight! GGG is fighting the weakest link @ 160, instead of Andrade! I'm not happy!

[PRINCEKOOL]

I think Hearn for whatever reason is starting to act out of character. Since when has Hearn publicly slated another big fight? Especially a British domestic fight?

Benn vs ether Brook or Khan is obviously a fight Hearn is thinking about in the near future 'And it is probably one of the biggest fights he can make, outside of Joshua vs whoever'.

Eddie Hearn has a demanding job, and for the first time 'I think now certain situations have made him react'. I don't actually hold any of this against him.

He is under pressure of late, with all these big fight negotiations. Coming and going.

[OLD JUD]

This fight might have had some relevance five or six years ago, but that ship has sailed. What titles are at stake?.......Oh yeah, NONE.
This does have some novelty value because of the contempt they have for each other. I might watch it just for that, but I won't be going out of my way to watch it.

My bad, I am going to the extreme. I should rephrase to say, their boxing programming SUCKS, and I could see them being disinterested in the near future, if Canelo does not sign the 2-fight deal! Too many GOOD fights not happening! Like I said, Haney vs. Garcia, not happening! Haney vs. Kambosos, on life support! GGG vs. Canelo III, on life support! Andrade vs. Munguia, dead! Bivol vs. Zurdo, crickets! What's more likely. Fury vs. Joshua/Usyk on ESPN or DAZN?
