Comments Thread For: Hooker vs. Saucedo Purse Bid: Top Rank Beats Out Hearn

[KTFOKING]

Haha Im done with the guessing, just gunna wait and see. Im assuming the free trials up come the Nov 17th card, and the big name(s) will be dropped for the lead up, to keep people subscribed.

Jacobs/Derevyanchenko moving off Nov 10th leads me to think thats the most likely date for Wilder/Fury now

I think so to, but HBO probably didn't want to risk it even if the Wilder/Fury card took place on the 17th.

But again, the question is what big names? I mean lets be real he is going after primary Haymon guys. So from the guys I listed in my other post, which of those fighters can you see signing with DAZN for that card?

What Hearn should do is try his damnest to sign Devin Haney and Jaron Ennis. Two blue chip prospects without a big promoter right now. Give them some big cash and build them up on DAZN.

Hearn BADLY wanted Garcia signed for his big card. But looks like Garcia will be facing Spence on SHO PPV. I just can't think of which big name guys he can sign from now on to then. This leads me to believe he is going to go after Haymon b-siders like Breazeale. He HAS to fill those dates one way or another. Can't keep waiting for someone big to sign, eventually have to move on.

When Hearn talks about overpaying fighters he's talking about Joshua's opponents, not all fighters.

No sir. He has said multiple times that fighters should be running to DAZN because he is in a position to "overpay" fighters right now. He used Vargas and Roman as examples. He said he can only "overpay" for the next few years because first come first get over-payed. He stopped short of saying "Our motto is to overpay fighter." FACT

This is why people are laughing at him. He talks a good game but hasn't delivered **** here.

S/o to Eddie for inflating the purse here. I love it when fighters get more money.

This isn't good for his DAZN play, but who cares lol he can just be the new Roc Nation and get these fighters more money.

Nobody that matters will sign with this platform.

I hope Hearn fails miserably! He's a joke! So far, the only fights that interests me is Jacobs vs. Derevyanchenko and Saunders vs. Andrade, and one of those is on HBO, and not DAZN!
