Has DAZN ruined Eddie Hearn's UK momentum?

[Ritz Kola]

Uk dudes really think DAZN is affecting Al Haymon?!�� His brands are the most profitable in Boxing. He’s been on top and is only getting better because special ed keeps failing at “taking over America.” Al Has TWO of the top 3 HWs under him and their the two Americans know. None of those other guys matter in America or are known aside from Aj who’s only known for taking a beating and running from America after. Bob Arum has said countless times ed-ed doesn’t understand the American market. Truth. Can’t be global without the most important market. Match room isn’t global. Eddy wants to be. It’s still a uk based promotion and eddie still a uk promoter. He’s not in Mexico, not in America (actually running from here), not in Canada, Not in Nigeria, not in Japan. I give him props for taking over the uk but his only competition was Frank warren. Americans didn’t know either originally.

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

He had momentum in the UK. With Joshua selling out stadiums and the domestic scene thriving.

Now it seems like all of his big fights are being held outside the UK. And he is using lower level Brit fighters to fill out his undercards elsewhere like he's doing today in Mexico.

Am I wrong?

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.

“He has the best heavyweights”

What? Who? D-Sample Dillian? Hughie Fury? Sam Peter? Dave Allen? Where are the great heavyweights you speak of?

Or is it everyone’s favorite glass jawed quitter, Anthony Joshua?

Hes got the number 1 P4P guy fighting in the UK next week in a sold out arena. Hes neglected the UK recently, but if he puts on something good people still come out in droves.

Hes addressed them taking there eye off the ball in the UK, and that there will be an improvement the 2nd half of the year. We'll have to see

The Lomachenko fight is one of the few exceptions. He is going to beat Campbell easily and take two belts back to Top Rank, though. So that isn't going to improve things much for Matchroom.

But if Hearn has admitted taking his eye off the ball in the UK then that validates my observation.
