It's a bad look when every rival promoter and network are trashing hearn. And now the other promoter on DAZN is trashing Hearn too sounding like those rival promoters. That fool needs to really shut his mouth and stop speaking on everybody else's fighters and business. Other fighters and promoters are literally saying we could make deals with your network or your fighters if you were not involved. And now this loud mouth may cost his own fighters a fight with Canelo because of his big mouth. Skipper needs to worry about Hearn and remember the report about the opt out clause DAZN has after 2 years with Matchroom. What do you need Matchroom for when Golden boy puts on better shows and is driving subscriptions? Hearn should worry about his own shaky standing with DAZN.Comment

GBP not holding it's end of the deal other than Canelo fights Munguia is a bust Ryan Garcia will get exposed badly if he steps up Vergil Ortiz is probably their last hope after Canelo
I bet Oscar wishes he could've signed Haney and Parker even on co promotion dealComment

Arums blown his budget already aint he? I knew the second half of the year we'd see how these supposedly massive budgets really stacked up.DAZN needs De La Hoya (Canelo) more than they need Hearn. Hearn should tread carefully. He’s too used to having everything his own way due to his exclusive Sky deal over here.
Both these guys should stop nitpicking with each other and focus on working together, DAZN is gonna need both these guys to perform better if they want to compete with PBC and Arum.Comment

All the reports in January and February had Hearn and Skipper meeting with GGG for DAZN. Who knows what promises were made.

And why do you think Oscar couldn't sign those guys but Hearn could? Because the budget he has compared to Hearn. You don't think he wants that budget so he can sign the up and coming fighters?Comment

I think AJ losing was even better for DAZN, so I don’t get the Hearn is under pressure thing, this is more to do with Andrade I think. And like Rob pointed out he is a Matchroom boxer, and Hearn would obviously push him next for Canelo. Oscar doesn’t need to worry, that’s what comes with having the number 1 guy in boxing.Comment

Hearn tried to sign him, but Golovkin didn't. He did a deal with DAZN without Matchroom involved.All the reports in January and February had Hearn and Skipper meeting with GGG for DAZN. Who knows what promises were made.

Are you ****** what percentage of subscribers do you think Golden boy has beought to the table now what percent are subscribing to see shytty Matchroom cards? Hearn has brought damn near nothing to the table and Golden boy is already taking some of the budget that was supposed to go to Hearn. Hearn was supposed to sign all the fighters to his promotion and they pay Hearn to promote the shows. that didn't work as he couldn't deliver the US fighters so Skipper stepped in and signed Golden Boy, GGG ect himself to DAZN. None have anything to do with Hearn yet he talks like they are signed to him and he tells them who they are fighting.
At what point does DAZN say well shyt let's give more or all that budget to Golden boy which puts on better cards and fights and they are driving the subscribers or let's bring in other promoters and keep signing fighters ourselves. What do we need Hearn for? When DAZN hits the 2 year mark with Hearn will be interesting because DAZN has a opt out clause. Remember canelo and Golden boy got 5 year fully guaranteed deals. Hearn said he got 1B budget on 8 year deal but it's misleading because he only got a guaranteed 2 years after that DAZN can opt out the deal. And Golden boy already eating up some of their budget because Matchroom couldn't get the fighters to fill the dates they wanted to give him.Comment

This isn't about Andrade, not sure why he continues to get mentioned here. In fact, the Matchroom fighter that is supposedly under consideration is Smith.
This is about Hearn going on interviews talking about what DAZN wants Canelo to do and how the trilogy with GGG is the fight that should happen. He went on Mannix's podcast yesterday talking about how the Kovalev fight is good but the GGG is the biggest fight in boxing…. After Joshua/Ruiz.Comment
