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

[filup79]

hurd should go to DAZN only after fighting his homecoming fight then Charlo Harrison 2 winner.

He comes to DAZN to face Munguía for undisputed then can move to 160 for Canelo Andrade and likely Jacobs and GGG.

U notice how he said Fox is ALMOST as good as fighting on ESPN? These athletes know what’s up.

Think you are misinterpreting his comment. He's saying Fox is as good as ESPN basically saying both aren't premium channels where more people get to watch them fight. Pretty simple to understand that.

I think what he mean is that more people get to see their fights as ESPN and FOX aren't premium channels.

I think what he means is that ESPN is the "Worldwide Leader in Sports" and FOX/FS1 aren't there yet!

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Does he want to move to ESPN? You tell me.

Super random that you would add that to a post where it was completely irrelevant from what I was talking about lol.

Lmao that dude is senile

Problem is no one is interested in Hearns shows, they have all been crap and most people would rather just subscribe only when Canelo fights. I curious to see how many new subscribers actually are going to continue with DAZN after their free trial for the Canelo fight.

Hearn is only just getting started in the US, and it's not like Canelo's first fight with DAZN had the whole country on fire either!

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.

That lawsuit was 3 years ago (2016) Things must be going in the right direction if the Waddell/Haymon matrimony still exists.

It’s simple mathematics, no way this investment group is still bleeding losses without a impending divorce. Public investment groups have to answer to shareholders, so if PBC’s financial metrics weren’t on the up and up by now, Haymon/Waddell would have already parted ways.

As far as Canelo goes, he has absolutely nobody to fight unless they r ready to feed Jacobs to him this early, which they seem unwilling to do at this juncture. But if that Rocky fight was any indication of what’s to come, then it’s already a disaster !

Lawsuits take time and they simply can't walk away from someone that is holding hundreds of millions of their dollars. It's a bit more complicated that that.

As for canelo being a disaster for destroying a tune-up fighter (belt holder in a higher weight class), that doesn't make sense. A disaster would be having a twin duo getting beat (#kobolovwon) and having their stock PLUMMET. Mind you those were tune up fights...

Everyone will bend over and touch their toes to get that canelo fight so what your saying about him not being able to get an opponent(is this guy high?) makes no sense. He chooses who's next and those choosen agree, that's not up for debate.

What's also not up for debate is the lackluster pbc fights that are so boring that Spence had to accept fighting a 4 ft man just to get some type of hype. #facts

Whatever works best for you, Hurd. We expect some big fights against some big names, though.

[AdonisCreed]

I was trolling lol.

However, I do believe he is a weight bully, and as soon as he moves up he will be expose. He's basically a black jcc jr.

Yeah he may even lose before he moves up. Hurd is on borrowed time as a champion. He has no defense and was in trouble against a C level fighter in Welborn for a minute before he eventually stopped him. I like Hurd and he's a good fighter but he needs to work on his defense. He'll be the next Peter Quillin lol

[SchoolTheseCats]

I can't see that happening. The more subscribers DAZN have who are interested in boxing, the more potential viewers for Hearn's shows. Hearn knows that, which is why he helped sell DAZN to Canelo's people.

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

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.
