    But he isn't feeding them Julie:lol::lol::lol:

    So if you not being paid, and it's dragging on for months, surely a time has to come you speak up. So you think this is how Eddie Hearn has found out, Boxers of another promoter have approached him to say something in hope it scares this guy into paying ?

    Cause someone typed it and pressed submit with their mouse. Beyond that not a single source to back their wild claims as emerged.

    I know, not sure what your agenda is. Fact Hearn released such a thing suggests something is wrong. You obviously involved with the person........

    I think he prob knows him too!

    Facts:

    Calzaghe owed £1.8 million as a result SN diluted! Still no money paid
    Khan PPV gone
    Hatton PPV gone
    Sky gone
    BN will struggle against the likes of Sky a sports channel, not boxing channel
    Degale already losing and the public mainly dislike him
    Funtime Frankie completely and utterly ****ed atm

    Im sure there are many other things in the last 5 years that will contribute to the downfall of allegedly!

    Not obvious at all, I live in 15 miles East of Manchester with as much connections in boxing as you or even less. I am just looking at hard evidence and all we have is one article from 6 weeks ago. Not much to go on.

    But if you look at that article, and take into account what has been said in this thread? Yes, its not hard evidence, but it does start to make sense.

    Why would Eddie Hearn be up in arms if some small hall promoter was struggling to pay their fighter? It hard enough to put a show on at that level! Maloney has barely any fighters or shows. Same for Hennessy, and hes got Channel 5 money to pay fighters with. Its fairly obvious who Hearn was talking about.

    When he employed the Olympians he spent a lot of money and it blew up in his face. He thought he could 'build' their profiles by putting them on Sky undercards, but he hopelessly misjudged the gullibility of the public.

    People don't care about Degale or Gavin beating up a no-hoper 3 times a year in a 4 round mismatch. They want to watch fighters with a **** load of wins on their records already who have already have a buzz and a reputation about them.

    Degale is now 32 months from his debut - 12 fights
    Frankie Gavin - 11 fights in the same period
    Billy Joe Saunders - 12 fights in the same period

    Thats coming up to 3 years as pros, Saunders hasn't progressed beyond area level, DeGale has managed to hack his way to a euro strap and world title shot off the back of a defeat and Gavin is apparently a sarnie short of a picnic and laboured to victory over Muttley (shot to **** 2 years ago) and Woodhouse (very definitely domestic level).

    This is the cream of his crop. And that's without even considering the slow-motion car crash that is Kevin Mitchell.

    He must be haemorraghing money left right and center.

    No I completely disagree. No matter how rich/poor you are. If you do a job you deserve pay. Allegedly got his services from the fighters so ****ing pay them for it.
