Not elsewhere but at DAZN I disagree. if I was an up and coming boxer I would be very worried over there.

Hearn is so desperate To attract viewers he would sell anything including boxing down the drain..

If you’re position is Hearn is gonna replace regular boxing with all freak show fights in the future you clearly have some agenda against him and are completely overreacting. DAZN has put on some of the best fights in the past couple of years.

Acting like PBC and Top Rank havent had atrocious cards LOL

I never said boxing needs the youtuber fights but my final point is a couple of them per year isn’t worth being triggered over. You need to get a grip.

It is easy promotion with an endless talent pool to draw from. He doesn’t have to wait for them to go through the ranks when they lose and the YouTube audience is easily satisfied and manipulated. He would be dumb not to.

DAZN has put on some of the best fights in the past couple of years. “They have had a few stand outs but the overall body of work is atrocious. How many fights have not been made. PBC and Top Rank are killing them.

By no stretch of the imagination do they compare with what is happening at DAZN.

Yes you did you stated that Andrade and everyone on the card expanded their audience through the YouTubers who all left as soon as the Paul Gib fight went off.

but my final point is a couple of them per year isn’t worth being triggered over. You need to get a grip.

Hearn is just beginning to scout new fights. See the link I posted. There are endless levels of amateur options that have popularity and will do anything for money and fame. Last point.... Good day!

Roberto Vasquez... great but sad perspective. That’s the problem with this whole strategy.

Does anyone believe the top YouTube fighters today are out selling the highest level of boxing?

No way padre... so why is Hearn opening the door to this perspective. Disruption happens because the previous insiders allowed it.

However as a true fan it won’t happen on my watch. They can do just like the UFC and set up their own thing. But this idea that we would allow them to infiltrate our sport as moles under the disguise of professional fighters is ridiculous. Why would anyone be on board with what Hearn is doing?

Honestly I don't care about the Youtubers. The only boxers who are going to be on the undercard of those fights are ones who want and need exposure.

Boxing is already messed up. That's the problem. It's not even a proper sport. It's all about money - that's why those Youtubers fit right in.

I actually wish boxing was like UFC where boxers are told who to fight and they don't get to duck people. At least the best Youtubers are fighting the best Youtubers...

Great points bro...

- the sanctioning bodies are corrupt, terrible and did I mention corrupt
- there at least 8 belts at every weight class
- Every promoter is essentially now its own independent league
- Endless network exclusivity and now Apps
- Money makers can become to big to be matched against true contenders
- Best fights sit on the shelf and go stale
- Much of boxing’s media is made of shill’s reinforcing promoter agendas in exchange for access
- PEDs all over the place
- Shady officials and judges looking to make side money

That’s just off the top of my head. I have even heard knocks against The Boxing Hall of Fame.

Lol...Sometimes I think what the hell did I sign up for? I chose my favorite sport like Sam "Ace" Rothstein (Ala Casino) chose his women.

Yes it's a real shame. Such a great sport, which is why there is so much money but then that ruins it too. It's hard to see any solution to it.

What boxers would sign up for a UFC style system with harder fights when they can have easy fights for less money?

One of the main problems is that the big money comes in when you have a fighter who is built-up into someone invincible/unbeatable. That brings all the money and the casuals in. So that's what promoters always aim to do. They make them appear unbeatable by picking fights and avoiding threats
