    Yes. Which is why DAZN fights/fighters walked out with all the year end awards last year. Last weeks card was the best card so far this year too. Matchroom is killing it.

      is it cause Hearn is new school younger while Arum and Haymon only care about protecting their fighters...

        It's because Haymon cares more about building PBC and doesn't want massive fights with rival promoters and Arum just doesn't have a great stable of fighters.

          Hearn's deal with DAZN has to go down as one of the greatest boxing deals ever made

            Eddie obviously has more fights to be fair but he’s setup a number of really good ones in my opinion:

            Just looking at heavyweights only in recent times see below. But he’s also really pushed the women fights and beginning to bring them into the sport - well ahead of other promoters who are now following his lead

            Joshua vs Klitschko, Parker, Whyte and Povetkin
            Whyte vs Joshua, Parker, Chisora (x2), Rivas and povetkin
            Bellew vs Haye x2, Usyk (think that was cruiserweight)
            Povetkin vs Joshua, Whyte, fury, hunter
            Price vs Allen

              I guess you werent around in the 90s but Mr King provided fkin real PPV gems that included legendary names such as Chavez, Norris, Finito, and Sweet Pea all on the same card.

              Not this pbc fkin weak bullsht and Bob Arum cant hold a candle to Don King either if we are talking about quality matchups.

              Don King was the real deal. Thank you for the memories.
              yet again u make urself look like a fool on this forum

              when was the last good card king put on ffs u mong ?

                Matchroom leads 2020 so far. US cards have deep undercards (but underwhelming main events). UK cards range from average to good. The quality of non-ppv UK cards keeps declining though, but Kelly Vs Avanesyan is alright.

                PBC had the biggest fight so far, but a lot of mismatches in 2020. Still waiting for the announcements of new cards, because there are still a lot of headliners who have no fight scheduled so far (Spence, Porter, Charlo, Charlo, Pacquiao (?), Eubank, Derevyanchenko, Ortiz, etc.).

                Toprank also had Fury Vs Wilder and Inoue Vs Casimero and Lopez Vs Lomachenko, Berchelt Vs Valdez are really good fights. But also a fair share of mediocre fights: Stevenson Vs Marriaga, Eleider Alvarez Vs Seals, Conlan fight, Navarette Vs Santisima, Taylor Vs Khongsong.
                Toprank also consistently has the weakest undercards.

                Goldenboy isnt really in competition with the other three anymore. Canelo keeps Goldenboy alive, but they are in the progress of building Ryan Garcia and Vergil Ortiz to future stars.

                  Al due to having a non-light roster
