Excellent.
Team Eubank showed Hearn last time that they won't stand for any of his ***** and won't be duped into a long contract.
He'll get a good platform and have a good deal of control in his future.Comment

Should they not be or you just throwing out facts? I'm sure Hearn is smart enough to know who needs him & who doesn't & what that ultimately means.
There is a saying with cheating that says men are only as loyal as their options that feels relevant to people with options in boxing. I've been saying for years guys like Manny & others should be less loyal to promoters. This is a brutal sport that can end people on its worst days. Your only loyalty should be to you & yours.Comment

After they left Matchroom the last time around, Hearn was bad mouthing them, saying he can't work with Eubank Sr (English)
Now he probably saw how well Eubanks last fight rated on Channel 5, which went head to head with Matchrooms Flop Kell Brook card. He's come back running begging Eubank Jr
It won't last, because Eubank will probably end up working with Hennsey Promotions again and Hearn will go back to slagging them offLast edited by FrankieBruno; 05-18-2016, 07:00 AM.Comment

Eubank is already an attraction in the UK, and he's only going to rise in popularity.
He's got a terrific and exciting style, he's got the name, he's got the showmanship, he looks the part, he is well spoken...He's a guy that will be able to work on short term contracts because promoters will always want him on their cards.
It's nice to see a fighter dictating his future as opposed to being dictated to by a promoter.Comment

100%. More fighters should get what they need from promoters without having their career damaged like Mikey, Ward, Gamboa, Chavez Jr & others have recently when things don't work out for both sides.
Too many guys are just happy to have a contract offered to them that I don't think they put in much effort to look into the finer points of that contract. Plus they have the misconception that someone who wants to work with them also cares & will look out for them to some reasonable level.Comment
