Which promoter has had a more positive effect on the sport of boxing?

[HanzGruber]

only one of them is a promoter

[The Big Dunn]

Isn't Haymon a manager and not a promoter?

[buddyguns]

It's Eddie obviously. He's had a hand in cultivating a rabid fight fan base in the UK. Uncle Al has to give his tickets away in most cases, and the fans in attendance never seem like they know what's going on.

Yeah. It's like asking who is a better fighter-Manny or Arum?

Who is a better ring announcer- Buffer or Corona Girl #4?

Eddie Hearn is an annoying ****, but in a different league to Haymon when it comes to promoting boxing. The UK boxing renaissance wouldn't be happening if not for Eddie Hearn.

Haymon, on the other hand, is at least partly to blame for the slump the sport is currently going through in the US.

Dude, WTF? You know he is a manager only. If you feel he crosses the line, ok, you are entitled to your opinion.

If you think Hearn is better for the sport than Haymon just say that and be done with it.

well its pretty similar, you know what i meant, they both manage fighters. And its murky as to whether he promotes or not too. Got you and hanzgruber trying to be smart arses.

As much as Eddie is an annoying scrote, the things he has done for British boxing is very good, people are talking about boxing now who wouldn't have done before.
