Comments Thread For: Hearn To Jermall Charlo: What the F*** Are You Waiting For?

[Scipio2009]

As much as it sickens me to say it,charlo should go to Dazn. Showtime needs to invest in boxing if they wanna remain top dog,& they haven't been putting up near dazn offers.

Hearn isn't saying "sign to DAZN"; he's leading with "sign to Matchroom USA", and most folks aren't rocking with it (don't think it a coincidence that Daniel Jacobs had the Canelo fight locked up before committing any more fights to Hearn)

The cancer are people like you who get butthurt that someone doesnt blindly buy into hearns bs. He screwed Dillon whyte in favor of AJ,he ducked Wilder & his father has made it clear he wanted to wait til 2020 to face him,which is exactly what will happen now that AJ ducked long enough for mandatories to become an excuse.

Hearn is nothing more than a young bob Arum,hes as corrupt as they come also. So stop getting butthurt hes not your fckin daddy.

Blah, blah, blah......Hearn and Arum pay more and their fighters make more, end of story.

NEXT!

Charlo simply doesn't want those fights...no other way to explain it.

Showtime showed Whyte the 50m dollars that was offered to AJ, I mean Whyte saw that the money was there. Maybe Charlo is being shown that money too. They can use that money to keep Charlo or better yet sign Whyte to showtime.

Just like I said. Haymons priority is SHO and FOX. And rightfully so. They signed their deals with Haymon having control of fighters like Charlo and wilder. Their rights fees are where Haymon makes most of his money. He has to look out for himself first.

Lion's Only Promotions is set to feature Jermall Charlo, from Houston, defending his championship and mandatory status (the WBC has already made it clear that the Fielding fight was the last voluntary, Jacobs' IBF title superceded the mandatory, and that Golovkin had to fight Jermall Charlo to get a mandatory shot; Alvarez better be ready to mail the belt to Charlo if he doesn't gets beat) against an opponent on primetime FOX/ITV/etc.

FOX isn't going to feature Haymon sitting on TV, lol

Do it jermall, go change your life and become a multi millionaire fighting canelo

Charlo is already WBC mandatory (and has been so for basically two years at this point), Canelo is basically out of rope after this Jacobs fight (assuming he doesn't get beat and made plainly by DAZN already trying to lock in another voluntary for Canelo with a mandatory due).

As long as he doesn't get beat in his Houston fight this summer, Charlo's got nothing to sweat; either Charlo fights Canelo next, Canelo hands him the WBC belt to fight Golovkin again, or the WBC let's Canelo rematch Jacobs (pushing the mandatory likely to the end of the year).

Charlo is already on his way to being a multimillionaire, made even easier by being the only middleweight champion that the public will actually get the chance to see fight, lol.

If Haymon has his clients interests before his own, he leads them to the money and big fights. If he has his own interests in mind (PBC/FOX) he keeps them at home fighting on his networks regardless of big fight availability. It's just sad that even with HBO bowing out, we still are in the same position with guys scattered all over the place making it hard to make some great fights.

Pay attention.

$12.5m for one fight, before then signing that and the next 4 fights to anyone (especially someone already known to stall out fighters for YEARS on a single owed fight) makes no sense, especially now.

Haymon gave the blessing to the Jacobs deal because the Golovkin fight was the first fight of the deal and the rest of the deal paid well too; Jacobs was again a free agent, and he again got the biggest fight of the deal in his first fight, while also only being tied down for 3 fights.

Haymon puts his client's first and doesn't seem to hide a dollar from them. Fair dealing on every fight, no ifs, and or buts.

Yea people aren’t realizing there is not a ton of appeal fighting in front of 20k viewers on Dazn. That money won’t be there. Dazn in boxing is a bust. They are desperate now.

The exit plan simply isn't there, especially if DAZN whiffs on getting any of the major US sports to drive folks to their app.

Haymon took a risk with the PBC effort, quietly handled his business while folks shat on his work, but has now emerged with a $120m per year US TV pot (with the FOX/FS1 piece likely to aggressively grow in the second deal for more FS1 content) plus whatever he's gotten in the UK and elsewhere.

Hearn knows that, even in just the boxing piece, his company has been maneuvered out of the picture; Joshua isn't signed to DAZN, and the biggest Matchroom USA star that he's responsible for on DAZN is likely Daniel Jacobs.

[Scipio2009]

.... 50 mil again

That has been debunked and put to bed more times than I care to remember.

money in da bag doe

Eddie Hearn got the info from Wilder, talked through his questions on some of the points with Haymon, and then presented the offer to Joshua.

Nothing there to debunk, lol. Unless you're now arguing that Eddie Hearn didn't go to Anthony Joshua with a "US vs UK" offer ...

"He lost to Korobov" tho right but the same people who run around saying that want him to sign with Eddie Hearn and DAZN...WHY? "He Lost To Korobov" He is "OVERRATED" it is kinda laughable actually how Fans will change their opinion of a fighter based on which promoter he "SIGNS WITH"? WHAT?

Totally up to Jermall Charlo and his team. Once again like GGG and now Wilder...GO AROUND Eddie Hearn, deal with DAZN and John Skipper Direct and see what they have to offer and like GGG try to get the most out of the deal as possible.

Wilder, Charlo, Davis...THEY HAVE A HOME they don't "NEED DAZN" DAZN Needs them so they don't have to go anywhere unless the deal is something they just can't refuse. It all depends on the contract to be honest I guess we will just have to wait and see what is offered

Fighters and Networks both need each other.

DAZN needs Davis and Wilder to make bigger fights aka vs Farmer and vs Joshua. Davis and Wilder need DAZN to make more money than they will get via the PBC.

And Charlo needs DAZN to fight the best fighters (GGG, Jacobs, Canelo and Andrade)for more money. DAZN are just fine with at 160lb without Charlo.
