Comments Thread For: Hearn on Losing Andrade-Parker Purse Bid: It Has Absolutely No Commercial Interest in America

[buge]

if this was Joseph Parker vs Andrade, I'd give it a watch

[LAchargers373]

Fast Eddie hearn. Last week Brook was washed now his vs dre Ed benn is a fantastic fight. Lost another purse bit now the fights not worth anything anyways lmao. What a petulant child. All I can say is why is fast Eddie begging charlo to fight Andrade. He could have GGG and Andrade unify titles. In house fight. Just doesn’t make sense

[thack]

Andrade is in the 'who wants him club' and a another bad buy from Edward Hearn. Why would Hearn shout about him moving up and making a statement with a fight against exciting unbeaten Zach Parker for the interim title for a Canelo shot only to then call it a fight that nobody wants to watch ......Because he again lost the bid AGAIN! ......waw!

Fast Eddie Hearn.

Oh, sorry, that was Arum, wasn't it?!

It's true. There isn't a lot of interest in this fight. Andrade still gets paid and if he wins, he stays in the Canelo sweepstakes. Canelo seems to like working with DAZN and Hearn so they're probably Andrade's best shot at getting that fight.

Andrade losing the purse probably helps him actually. Fighting in the UK is intriguing and raises his value somewhat.

Hearn's not exactly my favorite promoter but I wouldn't bet the house on this fight either.

I would take him more seriously if Hearn would just STFU after losing a purse bid. He has lost a few the last couple of years…

Fighters like Andrade and Crawford will never be major draws on their own to justify being so overpaid. Hearn is the biggest reason why boxing purses have gotten so inflated and divas like Haney price themselves out of big fights and Whyte thinking he’s worth more than most top pound for pound fighters. Unfortunately acknowledging the economic reality of certain fighter’s value means possibly facing a lawsuit and getting accused of being racist. Luckily for Hearn, Andrade is so irrelevant that he won’t face the same backlash Arum did for saying he was losing money on Crawford.

Bob haymon. Incorrect bro, if you know anything about supply and demand and economics then you would know the market dictates the purse. Not Eddie or Matchroom.
