    Matchroom USA=FLOP

    Roman: Great kid (I was ringside at his last fight and had a nice chat with him) but I think he know he's gonna sell his belt to the highest bidder (Vargas, Dogboe, Rigo, De La Hoya). Et al. I really do like the kid and hope he gets paid...but he is not a "star".

    Boo: You saw the "new and improved" Andrade at the DZAN conference (with his scary ass). He's best to just keep quite because he is odd AF. Richardson said it best once: "Boo-boo is a boxing fool." I agree. EXTREMELY talented. HOWEVER...he's way to small too do any real damage at 60. I don't know if he doesn't want to discipline himself or what's going on, but he could run 54 if he put his mind to it. He'll never see a belt at 60.

    Vargas: Another kid I really like and I was rooting for him against Broner..butter-ah...pssst: I think Broner won that fight. ANYWAY, whose he gonna fight at 47 now? Khan? I think we know Eddie is gonna keep Khan away from ANY danger until the Brook fight. Sam Eggington? Ted Cheesman? He sure as hell won't get that run-back with Broner, nor will he get it in with 1x, Porter, Danny, et al. They will overpay for Lamont. Watch. Meh.

    Mo Hooker: Listen. He is local, and I've been rocking with him since 99.9% of you even heard of him. But Saucedo ethers him. I have to keep it real.

    Big Baby: According to Dmitry he is with Salita productions. According to Jarret, he is is OWN promoter. We all know what time it is. Miller is nothing but a ROAD BLOCK to keep Wilder away from AJ.

    Let's please remember everyone who was woofing BIG ***** talking about how Eddie is gonna take over American boxing. Shiiiiii....all I saw was him make some offers, get SLAPPED DOWN publicly and sign nothing cast-offs and road-blocks.

    Not a good look, Hearns. I have zero skin in this but I have to give this a D. Matchroom USA appears thus far to be a flop. The boxing world is LAUGHING at you! Ha Ha

    The reason Americans don't like Eddie Hearns is because he tries to insult our intelligence.

      I was very high on Andrade at one point.

      But he has been so damn inactive that its impossible for him to get and stay sharp.

      He really should take the Billy Joe Saunders fight but I suspect he won't and his career will remain stuck in first gear.

        Hearn wants a bunch of San eggington level scrubs and thinks he can build an empire here. Except Americans dont care as much about boxing as the casual Brits

          "DAZN is the greatest thing to ever happen to US Boxing In A Long Time" yeah YOU don't get to say that Foreigner! Come to America Humble or you will get Humbled like with Danny Jacobs and him doing worse with Eddie than he was doing on his own in Attendance. 2 Fights so far under Eddie and how has his "PROFILE" Improved? It hasn't not under Eddie Hearn and not on HBO.

          Off to the worst start possible honestly as far as trying to "Take Over America" Good Luck Eddie! You're going to need a Miracle!

          Also you might not want to have the face of your brand saying BS like "Why Don't The Fans Train And Fight Wilder" and "Its My Career I Do What I Want With It" that is NOT how you get people particularly the American Boxing Fan to buy into what you're selling AT ALL

                Are you going to pay $9.99 for the DAZN app, Larry?

                  You should refrain from giving your opinion on anything. Ever.

                  Trust me, it's for the best.
