Comments Thread For: Hurd: I Turned Down Hearn's DAZN Offer, Haymon Doing Better

[kafkod]

What Hearn will have to start doing is putting one Joshua fight a year in the states. If he does that and can get GGG signed? Then he should be in decent shape. So then he personally would have Andrade/GGG/Jacobs (possibly) in his stable along with the money man in Canelo fighting on DAZN. A lot of fights you can put on between those four. GGG/Canelo III, GGG/Jacobs II, GGG/Andrade, Canelo/Andrade, Canelo/Jacobs, Jacobs/Andrade and then possibly try to get BJS on board as well. Though I don't know his contract situation with Warren.

Lose out on GGG? Then just close shop as most of the shows will be like the ones he has been putting out.

Yes, GGG is the man they need now. And BJS was ready to fight Andrade on DAZN, so no reason he won't be in the mix again.

That was a mandatory fight though and Hearn was going to win the purse bid anyways so they just agreed to a deal to avoid that. BJS did see the type of big money Hearn has to offer so maybe he tries to sign with him soon? Realistically, what can Warren offer BJS? Especially with GBP/Hearn owning the MW division if they get GGG/Jacobs on aboard?

Most subscribers are not renewing every month I’m one of them content doesn’t interest me that they offering and the cards been trash they put on for boxing i used free subscription for Joshua/pedvetkin cancel renewed few months later watch canelo fight and canceled that same day not to mention none of cards coming up are any good either dazn biggest problem going be keeping subscribers which is why I don’t think they going let canelo have another mismatch in May

They will be hoping their other content will keep subscribers interested enough to keep their subscriptions going, I guess.

He's already done much more than Quillin ever did by beating and unifying against Lara, and then his wins over Harrison/Trout.

I wouldn't make too much of the Welbourn fight. For one, Hurd always loses the early rounds, but more importantly he was testing his shoulder out and not fully comfortable. Good luck slowing that train down in the 2nd half of the fight though. That's when he takes over. The three names I mentioned above all had leads after round 6 or 7 and then it was over for them.

Will definitely be interesting to see how he does at MW against bigger fighters. Though he will still be a big a^^ MW lol.

Yeah Hurd LET wellborn win those round for whatever reason. Practice or I dunno but as soon as he stepped on the gas it was game over..

What other content? The fact that DAZN is going over a month after the Canelo fight without another card is terrible. You got a bunch of free trial customers for that fight and then they get nothing?

They got a MLB show, but not sure how many subscribers that will attract. They won't be getting any of the games and I don't think baseball is THAT popular where you get a bunch of subscribers just for that show. FAR from the NFL Redzone channel...Then again, I'm not a baseball fan at all so I may be out of the loop here.

Just a bit gun shy and that's exactly why he took on a tune up. Imagine fighting one of the top 154 pounders while not fully trusting your shoulder? Damn! Ward actually went FIGHTS before he trusted throwing his right hand because of his shoulder. Compare the amount of right hands he threw against Brand and the first Kovalev fight to the rematch. Virgil Hunter said my biggest thing was to put it in his head that he is fully 100% and there is no fear in him re-injuring it. But for fighters that is a big mental block. Hurd wasn't even throwing any shots for a while and only fighting in spurts but then eventually snapped out of it and took Welbourn out with one body shot.

If BJS wants to be a world champion again, he's going to have to fight on DAZN, whether he signs with Hearn or not. It could happen though. Warren is in finacial trouble and BJS and Hearn have had quite a good relationship in the past.

I know Bill was very bitter after losing his title and tried to blame Hearn for influencing the Massachesetts commission into not granting him a licence, but I think that was just heat of the moment stuff.

I like Hurd, he gets it done. He should leave pbc though, it's a ticking time bomb. Haymon is going to now through the rest of wadell and reeds investment money very soon. Over paying fighters and ridiculous promotions on TV cost money.

No wonder the investors are suing..

Caught you hating AGAIN. Are you programmed to hate?

I'm in the UK and we don't get DAZN here, so I've no idea what else they are screening, other than boxing. I presume they are going to be trying to come up with other content to keep subscrbers interested though.

I'm guessing you haven't been keeping up to date on the lawsuit (s).

And you do realize these FOX and SHO deals the PBC just signed have nothing to do with time buys correct? These deals are not involving W&R money.
