Comments Thread For: Hearn: Eubank Sr. Wanted 'Fee' To Attend My Dad's Birthday Party

[BOXING-SCRIBE]

I never said the IBO was a joke. I simply said it's not recognized by the boxing industry as a world championship. I agree the WBO is a joke. I personally don't recognize the WBO, but the sport of boxing does.

Some big names have held the WBU, WBF, etc titles as well. Doesn't mean they are recognized world championships.

The WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO all recognize each other and nobody else.

But the WBF and the WBU have been won when fighters were wayyyy passed prime and fighting at a ridiculous age...like Camacho when he got old...for example..fighters in their primes hold the IBO and I am a big enough boxing to know that the IBO is not part of the big 4...but that has to do with politics and money.

Ah ok yeah Brooke definitely, AJ probably. Hearn is still a titbag though

[jackblack008]

How is this news related to boxing? Eddie hearn is bitter.

In fairness this is Eddie Hearn & his dad we are talking about. I mean I bet more people in the boxing world than Eubank Sr would like to receive a fee for hanging with them socially, they just lack the boldness & balls to say it openly unlike Mr. English. So respect to Mr. English if this is legit.

Can you blame him when your own promotor does you that wrong??? I mean the ink wasn't even dry on the Brook/GGG fight and he was saying sht like this???

"Chris Eubank Sr.'s "crazy demands" cost his son a Ł3 million fight against Gennady Golovkin, according to promoter Eddie Hearn."

And I thought Bob Arum dissing Tim Bradley after he beat Pac was bad???

Hearn is talking about something that happened years ago.

Haha WOOOOOOW

“My dad sacrificed a lot, mainly through my childhood, to deliver the opportunities for Chris Eubank Snr."

There's the Hearn's ego showing through again, he thinks if it wasn't for them they wouldn't be successful. As though his dad didn't make money off Eubank and was just helping him out of the goodness of his heart. What a massive ego this guy has...just like Eubank said when he was negotiating with Hearns at one point he said to him, "If Jesus Christ himself came down no fight will be made without me.."

Guy really does think highly of himself huh? He and his son are nobodies. Wears that ****** azz suit like everyday, probably stinks like Lou Cipher's mom

[bboy80]

I fully believe this is true. The Eubanks are egotistical knobs.

[MoneyKing]

Barry and Eddie Hearn are 2 dodgy bastards. Other people do PPV it means less PPV money for them.

It was funny when Kugan in the IFL TV interview said Eddie collects 20% I think from PPV/fights.
