Why to people simp over guys like Hearn and Haymon?

[MoneyKing]

Hearn admitted to talking the ultimate bollocks lol

I think both of them have a lot more haters than simps tbh.

There's things I don't like about both of them but the main thing is, their cheques cash. That's not a given when talking about promoters.

Read YouTube comments under Warren or Hearn interviews and you will see there are factions supporting each. The young fans (who mostly support Warren because he's with Fury) don't realise how badly Warren has treated fighters in the past. He's liquidated at least two companies prior to forming Queensberry (Sports Network and Frank Warren Promotions) in order to avoid paying creditors, which included some fighters. Ricky Burns being one.

It's incredible how Warren's absoloute laundry list of past transgressions gets brushed under the carpet, and hes managed to Foster this "uncle Frank" persona.

Hearn is a smug douche and talks a lot of crap but he's an infinitely better human being than Warren.

Haymon - Racial bias mostly, PBC is the black's promotional company. They do not hide their loyalty (thus corruption) with each other. He ****ed over Kownacki, for example, by forcing him to turn down the AJ payday. Would he have done that with a "brotha"?

Hearn - Charismatic, presented an easy-going attitude and is relatively young which was a breath of fresh air to those sick of the bitter old fossils that had run boxing for decades. Also, he promised a lot and seemed, at one point, to may be able to back it up.

Now he has become the bitter, cynical promoter he once mocked and overestimated his own draw by dropping Sky for DAZN*. Plus, it is no secret he idolises Dana White's near monopoly of MMA with the UFC and wishes to emulate a similar model in boxing.

This has resulted in the American promotional stables pretty much shutting him out stateside, particularly PBC.

*All he has done is overpay guys like Jacobs for the Canelo bout to line his own pockets. Plus, he is desperately looking for the next US star by overpaying guys like Haney and Andrade who have no pulling power whatsoever.

So overall, he is a fairly slimy character with a huge ego.

Haymon forced broner to turn down 40 million guaranteed from roc nation.

So to answer your question. Yes he would do that to a "brotha"

I've asked this question for years. We live in an age of boxing where we have fans of promoters, managers and networks now. Why anyone would stand with Haymon, Arum, Hearn or rally behind Showtime, DAZN, ESPN, or any other parasite is beyond me.

Been going on for the last years.

They talk or don't talk. Block fights, occasionally make good fights. That's it. These people make it out like one is Magneto and the other is Professor X or something.
