Comments Thread For: Hearn: Sometimes We Don't Get Credit For Our Fights; We Are Putting On the Biggest Nights

[boxingitis]

Best matches are by Top Rank.
Bigger fights are promoted by Matchroom.
PBC sucks lately, they started well, but their own boxers dont want to fight each other.
Plant, Charlo, Benavidez.

C'mon Ed, you don't need credit. Stop panhandling for it.

Credit for what Eddie Hearn, you got paid now you want credit on top of that, your arrogance is dishonorable.
This fight took place four year's after it would've really been an all action trilogy fight, that's when the fighters would've gotten credit for it, not you Ed.

DAZN has the same problem as PBC! They get more criticism for the fights that did not happen, than credit for the fights that did! Haney vs. Garcia did not happen! Andrade vs. Munguia did not happen! Andrade vs. GGG did not happen! Andrade vs. Canelo did not happen! On the PBC side GRJ vs. LSC did not happen! Thurman vs. Spence did not happen! Lara vs. Charlo did not happen! Plant vs. Benavidez did not happen! Even though Spence vs. Crawford is happening, Charlo vs. Benavidez is not happening! Morrell vs. Benavidez is not happening! I feel PBC has the best cards, and the most talent, but they need make more of the big ones happen!

I suppose when you’re losing millions, the credit might make you feel a bit better.

I totally agree. GRJ v LSC is a tragedy that it didn't happen just like TR couldn't make Loma v Mikey. I understand how you feel about the MWs not fighting each other on Pbc but I understand the business of boxing and they were hoping for the Canelo sweepstakes to hit. Now that he's out until next May Pbc has to make fights and if all the free agent MWs agree to fight on Shw, Fix ESPN we will all be satisfied

Edward Hearn doesn't deserve it and that's why he doesn't get it. He is no different from a Don King , just more of a prat!

Eddie Hearn is talking entertainment for the casuals, the masses, putting on big shows. Posters on here are talking about the best match ups at the right time not happening. 2 different things. To put on big shows you need big stars. The last 5 years Matchroom has built Joshua into a star, Katie Taylor into a star. Then they get them into fights that are a spectacle - for casuals - sometimes.
Saturdays fight was a dud but you have to blame the fighters for that. Taylor Serrano was a classic for women's boxing.
Top Rank are good at building stars too - but then, before the superfights happen they tend to see their relationships with fighters implode - Mayweather, Garcia, Crawford.
PBC have tremendous potential for superfights but don't realise it often enough or timely enough. They are the best promoter to be with from a boxer's p.o.v but don't provide as many fights as they could and ought to, so fighters become inactive although paid well.
GBP are simply struggling right now, still recovering from 2015 debacle.

So yeah, as a fan I want the best most competitive fights - I don't care who promotes them except when the promoters/tv can't reach agreement with each other - in that sense PBC are the worst. Does Hearn put on the biggest shows? Probably - but that's his job. It's DAZN he should be looking to if he needs his ego stroked.

He drove DAZN and matchroom into the ground he overpaid for non competitive fights no one wanted to see.

You think people are ******, yeah you put good fights like Serrano v Taylor and then go backwards like her next fight and that’s why I always call you out on here,how bout letting ur star fighters fight people with a pulse,at least your dad made more even fights , stop selling people garbage and you might get some credit

I have criticisms for all the major promotional banners. They all have flaws and occasionally they put together something nice. They aren't in the business of getting "credit", they are in the business of enriching themselves and their fighters.
