    Farmer and Hooker ARE second or third tier (nothing wrong with that) when it comes to some of the top American fighters. Maybe the American stars aren't signing with him because of his approach.

    Hearn should have approached their advisers, managers, and promoters. Instead, he started soliciting the fighters directly on live TV or media. Do the business behind closed doors.
    That's fair enough but surely you've got to get behind the younger guys coming through?
    I mean, we all hated Don King but we loved Mike Tyson.

      He nor matchroom isn't, but DAZN is. If it were up to him he would just keep everything in the UK and completely ignore america. British promoters/fighters have always been like that.

        Sad thing on here is most Americans think it's AJ who is ducking. That's why threads are being made because they're crazy and delusional. If they accepted Wilder was the duck, those threads wouldn't need to be made. It's just a response to those clowns. But they refuse to accept reality so it goes on and on.

          Haymon, for example, isn't all or nothing when it comes to boxing in the US. He has other sources of income.

          American boxing has shot itself in the foot more times than not. Promoters rarely, if ever, work with each other. So not sure what the point of this post is, other than to point fingers at Hearn, like he's causing american boxing's downfall. smh.

          PBC has a huge stable, but we get more showcase fights than substantial fights people want to see. Throw in the 4, possibly 5 ppvs theyre charging at 80 a pop and you say hearn is not invested? 8.33$ a month vs, lets say 3 ppvs and 15$ a month for showtime and you tell me who is invested...they guy who is charging 400$ for a year or the guy you hate so much, who is charging $99? c'mon son, wipe your eyes and let go of the hate...

          Eddie knows how difficult it is with all the Americans sticking with haymon even though he's got more money for them. Cowardice and delusion is a major part of the difficulties he faces. That and racism. They think the "White Devil" will bleed them dry when nothing in the way of evidence has shown this. Actually, quite the opposite. Haymon's fighters are getting much less than what they would over at DAZN. But you know what it's like with discrimination at your end.

          He's just speaking on all the possibilities that can come about. If it doesn't work out over there, he's always got British boxing to keep him busy. It in no way suggests that he isn't committed to boxing in the US. Although your smears will wish to paint that picture due to your obsession and the hope for his failure.

          This obsession you have with Hearn is seriously unhealthy. You need help.

          Eddie ran back over to the UK and none of his American fighters have dates. DAZN is a mess and is ruining the career of the #1 star in boxing.

          I saw all this stuff coming a mile away but I was called a hater

              This has nothing to do with the normal every day business Eddie and DAZN have. This has to do with a world wide pandemic. Yet you've linked the two together to try and make a point with a post over a year old to try and justify your f3cked up extremism?

              My god are you people scary.

              You weren't right then. You're certainly not right now. You're just a freak with an obsession. You're obsessed because you're insecure. You're insecure because you have nothing but cowards representing you who get slapped silly by us or run like b1tches.

              It's not our fault you're all demonic and f3cked up. See a doctor for your mental problems and get off the internet. It isn't healthy being this extreme.

                Keep drinking the dazone kool aid. Everything I've said from the beginning has come true. You all are fools for falling for this money laundering pump and dump scheme.
