Comments Thread For: Eddie Hearn Switches Stance, Considering More YouTuber Fights

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Leading up to the KSI-Logan Paul fight, Matchroom Boxing head Eddie Hearn told BoxingScene.com in an interview that YouTuber showdowns were a "one-off" and that he was not looking to do celebrity matches. As the fight got closer and the magnitude of the event got bigger, Hearn shifted his attitude toward the novice spectacle even thought the fight drew nearly three thousand fans less in Los Angeles than the first one in Manchester last year.

well considering UK boxing has peaked for now its not a surprise. I don't see any possible English superstars on the rise and if AJ loses then matchroom is going to struggle to keep sky and dazn happy

Crazy Tempo vs Charlie Z, off the streets and in the ring. Their chance has come – make it happen!

Youtubers don't have to pass drug tests I guess?

It’s crazy how it peaked so fast. I guess that’s karma for how arrogant their fans acted. Now their two top fighters have abandoned the UK. It’s sad

Money talks. He sees the numbers and he gets hooked, no surprises there..

Of course he is. He's had enough hype jobs and drug cheats. Non fighters are easier for a guy like him to work with.
