    I read somewhere on Boxing Scene that Matchroom made £12 million profit in the last financial year, plus DAZN offered Matchroom a new 3 year deal. Things can’t be that bad clearly. Worrying about a promoters or tv networks success I find very odd. I hope they’re all successful which means more pay for the warriors who step into the ring and brings more eyes on the sport.

      You have a reading comprehension issue and/or are just making stuff up - probably both but definitely the latter. I have been clear from the beginning. Promoters want to make money. I suspect Hearn made money in 2022. If he or DAZN didn't, as you say, I really don't care. Show me where i changed the narrative.

      "Making money is the most important thing";. DAZN/Matchroom lost money. "I don't care about them losing money". Complete hypocrisy.

      Ok, it's clear - your reading comprehension isn't up to much. This is not an example of hypocrisy. I am stating that FOR THEM making money is the most important thing. It is not important FOR ME at all how much money they make. Is that really difficult to understand?.

      Why are you so DESPERATE to defend them when they objectively didn’t have a good year in 2022?

      ​I suspect that they made money in 2022. I haven't seen the accounts. I already said I don't care in 2 previous posts.

      You say the accounts support that? Which accounts? We are talking about Eddie Hearn and Matchroom right? I was going to say send me a link to Matchroom accounts = but please don't for your sake or mine - there are better ways to spend a Sunday
      You clearly changed the narrative you absolute weapon. You claimed making money was the most important thing, then when you realised it didn’t suit your agenda, suddenly you didn’t care. Pathetic fanboy behaviour.

      DAZN’s accounts are public. Google them. I never mentioned Matchroom’s accounts. I said DAZN lost money on MR’s watch which they factually did and you actually have the nerve to talk about comprehension.

      My only point was 2022 wasn’t a good year for Matchroom. Especially compared to previous years like 2017 for example. There is a plethora of evidence to support that statement. Such as DAZN’s increasing financial losses, losing the UK rights to Usyk-AJ, Canelo-GGG flopping at the box office, the Eubank-Benn fiasco and the PR disaster that followed.

      2022 was an objectively bad year for them, but as a pathetic little fanboy you can’t accept that and are here desperately defending the indefensible. It’s truly pathetic.

        He fought Oscar again in Twitter because of Canelo lol.

        Canelo is truly one of the biggest names in "sports history".

          But as of right now, seems to me that several boxers are trying to be the face or a face of boxing. Haney, Teo, Bud, Errol, Tank, Canelo, Fury
          There is only one Face Of Boxing in this sport. And that is Canelo. Who is waiting for Haney, Teo, Errol, Tank, etc. to the point where fighters like Charlo put everything on hold for 2 years? The Mexican superstar is fighting Charlo next, right?

            This 3 fight deal with PBC would be Canelo’s 23 and 24. September of 23, May and September of 24. Canelo’s next fight that DAZN could be a part of would be May of 25.

              Canelo is still the number one, I agree with that. I was more commenting on your second paragraph. The others are, as I said, trying to be número uno.

                Yes you are right. I'm a hearn and dazn fanboy despite stating I could care less if they disappeared tomorrow other than there might be less good fights made.
                seems like your powers of deduction are even worse than your reading comprehension.

                    You clearly are. You’re evidently lying when you say that. Actions > Words. Why else would you be desperately defending the fact 2022 wasn’t a good year for them?

                    You haven’t offered any evidence of why it was a good year too other than when you originally claimed making money was the most important factor, however when I informed you that DAZN lost millions with Matchroom as their lead promoter you suddenly “didn’t care”. It’s absolutely pathetic man. I’m just humouring you at this point.
