Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn on Doing Business With Haymon, PBC

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

For the second time in the span of three Saturdays, a Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) card prominently featured notable talent from the United Kingdom. Two weeks after Jamie McDonnell picked up the biggest win of his career in his first ever fight in the United States, James ‘Chunky’ DeGale followed suit with a UK history-making super middleweight title win over Andre Dirrell this past weekend in Boston.

The win made DeGale the first ever Olympic Gold medalist from Great Britain to capture a major title, not at all a bad way to conclude his stateside debut. Less impressed with U.S. hospitality was former lightweight champ Ricky Burns, who—on the same show as McDonnell’s off-the-canvas win over Tomoki Kameda—came up short in an unpopular decision versus local favorite Omar Figueroa in their May 9 headliner in Hidalgo, Texas.

A McDonnell-Kameda trilogy, Degale/Jack/Groves/Dirrell/Dirrell/Chavez Jr/Bute/Smith to mix in at 12 stone (168 pounds), and the eventual US invasion of Anthony Joshua (with eyes towards an eventual fight with Deontay Wilder), in addition to other fights and fighters are all examples of good business that can be done between PBC/Showtime and Matchroom/Sky Sports (UK).
