Absolute Disgraceful Promotion of AJ Usyk 2 Fight

[Apollo7]

Because it makes boxing grow as a sport you ****in idiot

What benefit will I get from a bunch of casuals watching this fight ****head?

Sky don't want to promote a fight of a guy going to a rival promoter.

Also the "Joshua era" at heavyweight is largely over. Fury had now taken over as the defecto british heavyweight and, since the pandemic at least, Joshua seems to have lost a significant amount of his casual audience. In reality, the emergence of competitive British heavyweights like Dubois and Joyce and the epic Wilder v Fury 3 showdown coupled with the disapppointing showings against Ruiz and Usyk mean there just isnt much of a reason for the British public to be interested anymore. It made sense in 2017 and 2018 when there were hardly elite British heavyweights on the scene other than Joshua but now there's arguably three of them and Joshua isn't even the best of the bunch.

He can definitely recapture some enthusiasm should he win, hell even being competitive in defeat will mean many of us will be itching for a Wilder/Fury showdown.

Completely agree. My paesan is an ex boxer at HW and follows the sport, he didn’t even know Usyk Joshua 2 was today. Hearn can’t promote outside of the UK to save his life he’s garbage.

Its not Hearn's job to promote the fight as SKY won the rights. Not that it makes the slightest bit of difference to your viewpoint on him but i'd thought i'll just say.

I can only speak for England but even if Dazn has the rights for North America its not solely on EDDIE HEARN to promote the fight IS IT? especially as he was practically in camp and AJ'S microphone. He gave hundreds of interviews which were all readily available. I get your point though ........In hindsight what would you suggested moving forward?
