        All I learned from these comments is that Americans don'tlike outsiders coming on to their patch. Funny that, because I've only ever read that the US has been built off the backs of waves of immigration and not to mention the slave trade. Irish, Italian, Germans, Poles, Japanese and Latins.
        But get one smarmy tall Brit into the mix and somehow he has messed up American boxing - like all the best fights are being made anyway without Hearn. Stevenson-Kovalev, Manny-Floyd - 2009/10, Crawford-Spence, Charlo-Andrade,

          Al Haymon? PBC were going to take over US boxing when they arrived and stole most of GB's fighters - complete lack of integrity and nobody should be surprised if Oscar is still sore at PBC and in fact just a couple of weeks ago he came out and said he was going to expose Al Haymon as being a negative force in US boxing - so no, Bob Oscar and Al will continue competing against the best interests of boxing fans

            Eddie Hearn is considered a joke among American boxing fans for several reasons. First, he is an open admirer and friend of Al Haymon, the powerful boxing manager who is reviled by many fans for his shady business practices. Second, Hearn has been accused of favoritism towards British fighters, often giving them preferential treatment in terms of matchups and opportunities. Third, Hearn's promotion, Matchroom Boxing, has a reputation for being disorganized and chaotic, which has led to several high-profile boxing events being cancelled or postponed. Finally, Hearn himself is often seen as arrogant and out-of-touch, which has only served to further alienate American boxing fans.

                I never even heard of them until this whole situation came about. I asked my girl because she has about 1,000 apps and she has that one and it does cater to a young black / urban audience. Has a lot of B and C rated movies. There are a lot of folks into that stuff but they are 90% women. That's not a boxing audience. I hope BLKprime succeeds but not in boxing. They had a hand in fuqung up one of the biggest WW...if not the biggest WW undisputed fight of all time. And that pissess me off!

                      Two things: 1. If Oscar wasn't so distracted with *******,, alcohol and committing audeltry on his wife with hookers and actually was aware that the way his business was setup that none of those fighters were under contract, then he would've never lost them. 2. Yes Oscar did say a few weeks ago that he was going to "expose" Al Haymon......has he done it yet? No? Do you why he hasn't? Because he tried to "expose" him already by suing Al and taking him to court. Do you remember what happened to the case? No? Well I do. The judge laughed at Oscar and threw the case out of court. So now he's going to expose him again. This is like a drama movie. We'll call this THE EXPOSURE PART DUEX!
