    Has DAZN ruined Eddie Hearn's UK momentum?

    Before the DAZN deal was made the UK scene was vibrant and buzzing with large crowds for even domestic level fights.

    Now it seems like a lot of that has gone away since Hearn is so focused on the US market. On top of that Anthony Joshua got beat and now is going to fight in Saudi Arabia.

    Fast Hearn the Puff Daddy of boxing who's always all up in videos dancing in shining suits is all about the benjamins. He doesn't give a tosh about the UK anymore.

    Teflon Hearn the American nightmare. It's all about the benjamins, baby. Dollar dollar bills, yo. DAZN pays good money, ya heard? It's only a matter of time before Teflon Hearn starts speaking with an American accent. LMAO.

      It just seems like he had a good thing going in the UK.

      And he kind of threw that all away in trying to conquer America. So far unsuccessfully.

          Hearns not a U.k promoter he's global so how did Dazn hurt him with dozens of key fighters signed he couldn't do solely in the U.K market able to put on shows in other countries ?


          Really you have to understand business before doing ridiculous threads . He has the best heavyweights as well ,there;s a reason why Hughie and Peter signed with him despite having ties to Warren and Hennessey ,they know where the best opportunities are and Peter always takes the best deal .

          Hearn doesn't run on AJ ,he has an entire Dazn machine to run ,and its actually bigger in the U.K now he has access to Dazn signed guys and free lance guys on his Matchroom ,it would help to do research and be right more then not.

              When was the last time you people said he's in a momentum? So what is there to ruin?

                Hughie wasn't mentioned as a best HW he was mentioned as part of Peter Fury who looks for best offers.

                Joshua. Hrgovic. Povetkin. Usyk. Gassiev . Chisora. Parker

                Nkosi Solomon/ H.Fury and Kuzman are unproven but its still the most stacked HW roster, prove me wrong with this line up and knowing Matchroom cards are basically Dazn ones most the time with other Hw's ? understanding boxing is the problem you and posters like you have.

                  Sky were definitely not happy with Matchroom at some point. No one should dispute that. But hey they got the Joshua rematch.

                    DAZN have disrupted everyone, its not just Matchroom that have declined in quality. PBC regular cards are going downhill, Top Rank is trash, PPVs US side going up and up, Warren is hanging on by his fingernails. We've just got a hope in the UK it ends up with them coming here in a year or 2, and make a big investment.
