I think you know that without TMT these is no PBC. Ellerbe promotes for both. They are one in the same. But I get it you're just playing semantics so it's cool. And by the way I also have green eyes so I'll give you one pass on this.....ONE! LOLHearn makes a few valid points here that both Leonard Ellerbe and Lou Dibella haven't promoted any major events in the the last 12 months
Nor have any major Boxers signed to their promotional companies
Tank left TMT recently and Leonard Ellerbe represented Al Haymon's PBC when Tank fought Garcia but besides Floyd Mayweather's exhibition fights he has no major fighters signed to TMT
Dibella Ent has a upcoming featherweight champ on the rise but no up coming Ppv fights/events scheduled
But
I'm sure the Hearn/Matchroom haters will disagree with me and have a lot to say in the comments

Two out of his Five of his next cards are in the U.S , he doesn’t have to take over with guys like Arum , Espinoza and PBC around they’ll help him out .Comment

That’s the attendance not the event , many big fights go there . Most UFC fights hold less like 1 K or whatever in their own hall venue they built when they show them at Apex am I to believe these aren’t big events on the UFC ?
Nice try doe .

It's good that these promoters are at each other necks , it may keep them on their toes but then ,even Don King and Bob Arum found a truce when money was involved , these guys should take a leaf out of their book , everyone would benefit.Comment

Every single one of those guys have promoted far bigger fights than Hearn. They also didn’t need a helping hand from Daddy to do so.Comment

Eddie hasn't promoted anyone into existence since Anthony Joshua, he pays big money on multi fight deals to gain market share for DAZN and they have a differant motive, DAZN is paying for market penetration. And just to be fair, Al Haymon/ Reed and Waddell burned through millions building a stable for network content without short term consideration.
Hearn has been signing fighters to big contracts but he can't make the big fights. The multi fight deals are often front loaded with cans and a competitive fight at the end that almost never seems to materialize. Eddie did get his big (bigish) fight with Canelo vs Bivol but struck-out with Haney and lets hope he does better with Regis Prorais. On the opposite side Frank Warren front loaded Fury's contract with a human bazooka, Arum stepped in to gain heavyweight content for ESPN. Unfortunately, Fury is more of a one and done guy and after 3 brutal fights Fury now wants the easy sideshow for ****** money on the way out.
In the end, without Eddie and DAZN's funny money the sport in general would likely be forced to work together and put on better match-ups (good for fight fans). On the down side it would likely allow Showtime and ESPN to monopolize at the cost of fighters pay. (bad for the actual fighters).Last edited by factsarenice; 06-28-2023, 11:54 AM.Comment

You are missing the bigger picture, its about market penetration for DAZN on a global scale and nothing to do with winning or losing on a single fight or fighter. Did it work? Time will tell. It worked for Al Haymon but I believe Al is a much shrewder businessman.Comment
