    He only backed Benn for the drug test as he was his investment, and to still make money off him future fights such as Eubank. He had the name and built a profile where he was getting the views, Eubank fights boosted his profile even more. Big L from Eddie not having him signed to a contract. No one is loyal Eddie has his own interests. He did not back Benn because of loyalty and friendship he backed him cause he was one of his big names for his company

    Same way when Whyte was on a fight by fight basis he backed his failed drug tests when he was one of the big names and hid the test from everyone. Same thing as Whyte was making him money and PPVs. Fast forward when Whyte was washed and failed another test and AJ rematch got cancelled, did he back Whyte about test, no, not even a word of backing, why because he was basically washed at that point outside of the AJ rematch they tried to sell Whyte was not going to be a regular headliner ppv at that point. Do not feel sorry for any of them. They will all do what is best for their financial interest.
    Conor wasn't a star then. Would've been easier to cut him off right there, but he dragged Matchroom's name through the mud to protect Conor.

    Without Eddie Hearn, Conor would be a nobody.

    I think it takes a very disconnected person to not know there was more to it than money here.

    Conor definitely done the dirty here. But you gotta live with your choices. Hopefully the money is worth it

        Everybody knows he gets smoked by most belt holders. The Shakur talk was just talk since getting humiliate puts an end to his money demands. From there it would be back to barking at local talent to milk a big payday from the UK crowd. He's a Zuffa Level talent and they can recruit anyone for cheap. From there hype up the cheap B level talent Joe Rogan style and voila ego and pockets are satisfied long enough for him to stay in the game pretending to want to fight the best and play superstar for the leaches stroking his ego. At the same time, Zuffa gets to pretend that they signed a big name even though it's really the father's name they're really capitalizing on.

              Why didn't they Sign Shakur after his victory over Teo? Canor sucks and everyone knows it except Uncle Fester. I THOUGHT Dufus Boxing was Best vs Best, this guy sucks more than a Dyson Vacuum.

                What is the plan? I am really curious, who is the 1 fight against? The fact that Zuffa agreed to a 1 off for 8 figures invalidates their entire business model, it signals desperation.

                    Rumour has it that Frank has fallen out with Turki. And clearly Turki is doing the dirty on Eddie while pretending to keep him close.

                    Turki is taking over and he's using Zuffa to do it.
