Comments Thread For: Hearn Expects Purse Bid Battle For Lomachenko-Crolla Rights

[_Rexy_]

if I'm Hearn I expect step aside money. No way is this guy on Loma's radar.

The most interesting thing about this fight will be who wins the purse bid if Hearn is legit looking to swipe it from TR. TR has been doing good vs Eddie in the purse bid war doe so we shall see.

Loma is 32 and legacy waiting. after Pedraza a rematch with Linares and then a fight with either Gervonta or Garcia.

Loma's actually 30. He turns 31 soon.

I'd rather see him fight Mikey after Pedraza... but Mikey is seemingly going to fight Spence (which is dumb). Now I don't ever know if that fight between them two is ever going to really happen.

It would be better for Loma that Hearn wins so Loma can also headline a show in the UK. After Crolla he will come again to fight Campbell. Loma might have 2 fights in the UK next year.

Did you read the article?

“But he’s done everything else so why not go to New York or Vegas and fight for seven figures? We want it there”

Arum will make Loma drop
The title before he ever lets Hearn earn the rights to a Lomachenko fight

I think he'd let Hearn have the fight for crazy money. Hearn let him have Hooker. They seem to get on alright competitively and it would be a bad precedent to set.

I expect Loma to move up anyway and drop the belt, leaving Crolla an empty belt to fight for. I think Hearn is happy for the cash grab and will just bid to bump the price rather than win. Loma in the UK would be great and bring some cash in but not good for ESPN.

hearn said in his quote the fight would be Vegas or New York.

He needs to fill those Matchroom USA dates.

Hearn never let anybody have anything, he was outbid for the Hooker fight. Anyway, I want to see post surgery Loma, how his shoulder holds up. Pedraza will be a test. Can Loma beat him with one arm, if he has to?
