    Canelo has already fought 2 of Hearn's fighters. One of which was his #1 fighter below heavyweight, Jacobs. All in less than 6 months and Hearn is behaving as if Canelo has been twiddling his thumbs. Maybe, Hearns should put pressure on GGG to fight better fighters not named Canelo and pressure Andrade to put on better more exciting performances not stinkers like tonight and his last few fights. Then maybe fans would actually want to see Andrade fight Canelo. Andrade basically gets a belt handed to him (without actually defeating the champion) and all of a sudden he acts as if he is a superstar and the man at 160.

        GGG aint fighting Canelo again, with that contract he gets big bucks to fight bums, why would he risk a 3rd schooling from Canelo?

        And lol at fishnets trying to talk chit to anyone else, he can never win these, there is too much material out there, all someone has to do is bring up the photos of him with kitchen utensils up his ass. He has no shame, if I did that, I would move out to the middle of nowhere and live on a compound in utah or some chit away from the internet and everyone I ever knew.

          I wonder if he is going to show his face after Matchroom had yet another terrible card on DAZN. There wasn't a single competitive fight on the entire card last night. Hearn needs to worry about making better fights. DAZN is going to be looking very hard at that opt out option if Hearn don't start making better fights. Golden boy is the one delivering subscribers and better cards.

            Part of me thinks he's not even trying.

            Idk why he's putting so many UK people on US cards too. That seems like a lazy move.

            And this is the same mfer who I believe has said that a guy like Khan f#cked up his UK drawing ability by fighting in the states...& now he's got Callum Smith in the US & I think Katie f#cking Taylor just moved to the US or something cuz she's not fought in the UK for almost a year now.

            But to the point idk that these UK people are helping you out in the US. And its not like Sky wouldn't dig having a decent show from time to time again.

                The Brits always seem to think their fighters are better and more popular than they really are. And yet, the Brits always ends up with a reality check and instead of learning from these experiences they keep repeating the pattern.

                Cleverly, Price, Harrison, Hatton, and now Joshua are perfect examples of overly praised and overly valued fighters. The next on the list to suffer from a reality check will be Callum Smith. When they finally get fighters on the cusp of being great said fighters suddenly retire. Froch and Calzaghe come to mind.

                  We need Donald Trump to intervene. Call a WBSS for all divisions and let the best gather all the straps.

                    Katie Taylor's not British, shes Irish. She cant fight in Ireland for security reasons. The best she can do for a home fight is US cities with high Irish population

                      Hearn talks way too much about other fighters and other promoters rather than focusing on his own. Then he will run to Kugan Cassius and do a interview playing the VICTIM. Oscar does the same times as well so

                      Well I guess we can go ahead and cross off Canelo vs Callum Smith from happening next with Oscar's Comment
                      Smith is a good example of Hearn not knowing anything about the US market. Smith is a British domestic fighter. Not well known outside of Britain and just recently won a belt. He is young and still has a lot of work to get done in order to be better known. He is not nearly as good as Hearn thinks he is.

                      I think he will turn out to be another Nathan Cleverly. They put Cleverly in with Kovalev too soon and pretty much ruined him before his was ready. Why did they do this? Because of ego. His promoter and Cleverly were too egotistic and thought they were better than they actually were and so they got crushed and Cleverly was never the same. This will happen to Smith if they put him in too soon with a better fighter. In my opinion Smith is a good fighter, but more of a mid top ten guy. They need to get as much out of his limited talent as they can before cashing out with fighters like Canelo.
