Comments Thread For: James DeGale Rips Eddie Hearn: I Don't Lick His Ass, So He's Bitter

[Eastcoast]

Why is it that only Haymon seems to take care of his fighters?

Because Haymon's the only promoter who doesn't have to worry about actually making money with his shows. It helps if someone just gives you a giant hedgefund to spend w/o consequences.

I thought something was brewing between these two.

Every time Hearn was asked about DeGale he just brushed off the questions. And when DeGale was asked he just said something like "ask Eddie"

I have been waiting for some info regarding his contract with Haymon and how it could conflict with Matchroom, but it appears now that Degale never had a contact with Matchroom which seems very odd.

Looking forward to Hearn's retort

Haymon waved the money in DeGale's face and he took it, fair enough.

He shouldn't go at Eddie now though, that Haymon well isn't as deep as it once was.

Stopped for a picture three times within 48 hours, Haymon has created a superstar! If he is not careful he'll soon be mobbed by a crowd so massive it will almost creep into the double digits.

Hearn's response will probably be that he has more than enough guys to put on Anthony Joshua's undercards.

DeGale was spot on about Hearn and Callum Smith.

Similar to the Frampton Quigg scenario

I dont see the point of burning bridges for no reason. Who knows what the future may hold for Haymon/PBC or Degale, Sky and Matchroom are useful friends.

Oh well, adds an extra bit of fizz to the potential Degale vs Smith match i guess

[Cunning]

DeGale is an accident waiting to happen. He said he was "super fit" for the Dirrell fight... Then proceeded to take 5 rounds off and sc**** through with a points win. Callum Smith with decapitate him like Froch would've done. Then he'll fight Groves and it'll be do or die.

Boxers was saying Haymon took care of them way before hedge fund came into play last year just go all way back to Vernon and look at history
