I thought Jacobs was the King of Brooklyn. Got outhustled by Broner and Vargas.

Hearns fighters besides AJ in the UK. Just aren’t that marketable simple as that!

Brook, Khan, even Whyte's last fight do better attendance than nearly every American fight without Canelo and Golovkin.

Headline Jacobs in a competitive fight against Jermall Charlo and you will get 14 to 15 thousand in attendance instead of unproven guys you been facing him against Sulecki and Luis Arias.

Didn't he just call Charlo virtually unknown a few days ago? Lol

True, but Khan, Whyte and Brook were built up by other promoters.

Hearn built only a few from scratch, AJ, Katie Taylor, Callum Smith, etc. And I'm sure he will build others.

Very similar to when Golden Boy went on a signing spree a decade ago and picked up a lot of key names from other promoters, but once those key names retired or left them its been a bare ship.

Regardless, the UK audience and US audience are two very different animals.
