      Only because Hearn doesn't promote either of them.

      If he did, it's the biggest and best fight of the last 20 years and will have mainstream crossover appeal!

          He has no real business these days, he literally has nothing but a steroid scandal that he’s apart of

            This is from part of the article:

            "After months of what appeared to be promising negotiations, Hearn was convinced that Crawford, the WBO

            k and forth, Crawford (38-0, 29 KOs) picked up his ball and went home. Having left Spence at the negotiating altar, Crawford will instead take on David Avanesyan on December 10th, at the Chi Health Center in Omaha, Nebraska."

            Come on , Boxing Scene. I can understand the odd typo getting missed, but the above is unreadable and the most cursory proof read​ should have instantly caught it.

              This statements basically insinuates that Hearn, lets none boxing fans dictate the fights he makes.

              A sport with integrity, should cater to his genuine fans primarily. All other prestigious sports do.

              This general world people Hearn is talking about, will come and go in boxing. So this statement means nothing to me.

              Crawford vs Spence Junior is the biggest and most significant all American title fight since Evander Holyfield vs Mike Tyson I.

              When the fight is announced, it will gain traction. Authentic competition, cannot be denied.

                Spence is talking about going up in weight now. He’ll be best known for making every excuse to not fight Bud and switching weight classes to avoid him.

                  If Hearn was promoting it then he would had titled it the biggest fight of the decade.

                  There was buzz for this fight amongst the casuals, the match ups is what sells the fight. But he is right in one thing is that some fighters think that they are worth more than what the market can pay them.

                    The reality is that America is the Mecca of Basketball and Football. Boxing is a minor and fringe sport in this country. Boxing is a relatively bigger sport in the UK, Mexico, and West Asia than here.
