    What is a realistic roster for Matchroom USA?

    Let's assume Eddeh can't get the Charlos, Spence, Wilder, Mikey, ect... Who is he realistically looking at acquiring for a roster in the states?

      I honestly believe wilder will join if he wins against AJ.

      Spence Mikey garcia are likely imo.

          I agree. I just wonder who those fighters are.

            If Thurman pops up when the roster is announced he's a coward.

                I’ll believe that Zuffa boxing is a thing when they officially announce something.

                  Realistically Hearn sucks at his job if thats the case. And I don't think Hearn sucks at his job at all. I think he's one of the best at his job.

                  He's already pulled Danny Jacobs & Khan from PBC. I have no reason to believe he can't pull 3ish guys from the Spence, Charlo 1, Charlo 2, Wilder, Thurman, LSC, Tank (when he becomes a free agent), Derevyanchenko (not sure if he's with a promoter or not, but he's PBC/Haymon), Hurd (not sure if he's a free agent or not either tbh) or Broner crowd.

                  And after that there are probably 20-30 guys underneath these guys who could be co-main caliber guys & main event guys within the next 12-24mos probably if moved correctly.

                  And after that there are maybe 40-50 solid to great prospects to pick & choose from.

                  Take 3-4 guys from that top tier. Give me 8-10 guys from that middle tier & give me 16-19 bottom tier guys & we got a 30 man new roster to add to what he gots + flip guys from the US to the UK at times/when needed or flip guys from the UK to the US at times/when needed.

                  Some of you mfers are nuts. Some big move gets made for a guy like Hearn or Arum with the ESPN deal recently & you f#cking dummies think its a bad thing somehow lmfao. Hearn is ABOUT TO BE F#CKING KILLING IT. And fighters who turn him down will likely regret it cuz as of right now there has never been a better time to be with Eddie Hearn.

                    The money is there for big signings for sure. I'm just a little sceptical when it comes to Hearn. I don't even think his UK roster is all that great tbh.
