All the PBC haters have pointed out the Hooker v. Ramirez fight as evidence that Matchroom and Top Rank are working together and that Al Haymon is is bad for the sport. But if you delve in a bit deeper, you’ll notice that Maurice Hooker and Jose Ramirez are NOBODIES. Nobody knew them and no one cared about their fight. Their pre-fight build ups were getting no traction or buzz, I’m talking the press conferences, the weigh-ins and the interviews were getting 1-2k views per video.
On the night of the fight, Gervonta Davis was the one with the sell out crowd, Gervonta Davis was the one trending on Twitter and YouTube. Gervonta Davis was the one getting posted on Worldstar, Sports Center, Bleacher Report and House of Highlights. Gervonta Davis was the one getting all the post fight media attention, FightHype and ESNEWS didn’t even bother cover Jose Ramirez fight.
At the end of the day, Eddie Hearn will never send AJ to fight on ESPN and Bob Arum will never send Bud or Loma to fight on DAZN. FACTS!
