The common denominator in all of this is Sky. Sky made Hearn, and Sky made money and gave the air time to all those fighters.Bellew .. brook...burns..froch...
3 were with Warren..1 was with Hennessy sports. Not a single one of those fighters was getting even 10 percent of what their highest paydays have been under Hearn. Did they all miraculously get brilliant and have talent transplants in the latter stages of their career ?
They made money.. BECAUSE of Hearn. Because he might be a slimeball but he's absolutely one of the best promoters in the world at getting his fighters paid and navigating them to big fights.
Take a look at their resumes..opponents..purses...where they were being guided to prior to going with hearn.
Look at Anthony crolla..a nothing..a peon. Signs to hearn and gets guided to a world championship and two massive paydays against Jorge Linares.
You think Anthony joshua would make what he does now under Frank Warren? Or dillian Whyte would have just sold 440k ppv buys if he hadnt signed with matchroom after the AJ fight?
There's a reason the saying is earn with Hearn.. cos he gets you paid.
Hearn has done well with the backing he's been given by Sky compared to Fish EyesComment

Yeah and sometimes what he says is just more bull***** he knows he won’t get called out on.
Jacobs is still advised by Haymon.Comment

They were on sky pre-hearn when Warren was doing shoes on there and they were with him..
Hearn got his chance because of the great job matchroom had done with the darts with him as a PDF board member / chairman.
Hearn date shared at the beginning..then got outright exclusivity..because his product was better. People jumped over because he offered them more. My point..is that those fighters got more from Hearn than they ever would have without himComment

You’re absolutely right
Haymon is “personal advisor” in a sense and has nothing to do with promotion
Although with his intelligence for the fight game , I’m pretty sure some promoters reach out to him for his thoughts and ideas
Of course for a large fee , without sayComment

He’s in the same role he was in before. But yes, Hearn is Jacobs’ promoter, something Haymon never was.Comment
