    I wouldn’t go as far as that
    More like they realized what they’ve done
    Anyway bottom line is they are getting way to much money

          My point is that it's the fans that pay the fighters. The fans are broke now. So where is the money going to come from?

            I hear you but nothing seems to surprise me
            Even without fans in the stands , they can generate great views
            Put them on fox and cbs
            If properly promoted and half decent fights , they’ll make money

              Yeah, it's your fault, Mr Hearn.

              Fighters now want tens of millions of dollars before going into the ring.

                Something is up in Hearn's sleeves. The intention may be good for boxing but then Eddie is thinking of something else. We would soon see it

                  Nah, there's nothing in his sleeves. He was called out by Mannix in his podcast for driving up the purses.

                  Read the article bro.

                      I mean sure this sounds good, but it's not the reality or else soldiers would get paid millions upon millions cuz they are putting their lives on the line at a higher clip than boxers do.

                      The reality is no matter the danger present with a job you aren't getting paid more than the money you bring in. And with the realities as they are right now with coronavirus nearly everyone in boxing will be taking a pay cut I'd imagine.
