    You can when there is reasons for it.

    Trying to blame Hearn for how Jacob's performs in the ring is frankly ridiculous.

    If Jacob's looked like a million dollars in the ring you ain't going to see the OP give all the credit to Hearn as again that would be ridiculous.

    Thougt he was having a pop at the terrible opponents jacobs has been facing. That is more than a fair comment

    Hearn put him in fights he was always going to look bad in?

    Basically tough unknown guys that were never going to raise his profile, they were always going to make his stocks drop!!!


    Funny thing is, all the Hearn ball lickers would have been praising Hearn if Jacobs looked a million bucks???
    Why does Hearn never get criticized for his poor match making?

    Hearn thinks he can just take the good with the good.
    If we are going to praise him for AJ doing the business in the ring then we can criticize him for Jacobs looking poor too!!!

    Rubbish....Jacobs has just been in with a very skillful & accomplished all round Boxer...just because you have never heard of him does not mean anyone cannot see that .

    I have very much heard of him, and I have been talking him up for a while now!!!

    Just because I am a fan of the bloke that doesn't mean he isn't unknown!!!

    Ffs even on this website the poorly informed posters were initially crucifying the fight. It wasn't until more knowledgeable posters who rated the bloke started posting that we saw it as a decent fight???

    In terms of raising Jacobs profile to the general public this was a very bad match up for Jacobs. It may have been a bit of a sleeper for the hardcore fans but it just made Jacobs look bad to the casuals.

    Now they are thinking Jacobs can barely beat a blown up 154 unknown polish bum???

    The truth is quite different, Sulecki is very good and he is a big 160lber!!

    Are you serious?
    This guy came in claiming that he could walk on water and that he was going to get Jacobs active?

    He clearly can't walk on water and Jacobs is on track to fight 2 or 3 times per year which isn't an earth shattering amount of activity?

    Why can't he get Jacobs all of those names above? Why can he not even get 1 of them lol?

    He claims to be the best in the business, but he is sounding pretty bloody average if you ask me?

    Now he is claiming Billy Joe will price himself out of a fight with Jacobs?
    Clearly Hearn doesn't have the capability of making the fight, so he is just making excuses!!!!

    Is Hearn the real deal or is he just an average Joe???

    FFS he would never have been able to do what Deano and Higgins has done with Parker and Horn!!!
    That is impressive!!! Silver spoon boy was just handed the keys to UK domination!!!

    The way he is handling AJ vs Wilder is also very unimpressive.
    AJ looks like a coward making too many excuses

    Doesn't Hearn only promote cards where every fight has one guy 100/1 to win?
    'Hearn only puts on one sided cards, he's robbing the fans'.


    Now he put Jacobs against a tough competitive fighter.
    'Hearn is ruining Jacobs profile with tough fights'.



    Where's the Al Haymon threads?

    Erroll 'The Truth' Spence....The future P4P King.....IBF belt holder....Two American fighters....695,000 Viewers.

    The funny thing is that they were still "mismatches", nobody had ever heard of them and they were expected to get crushed.

    It is just atrocious match making!!!!

    Spence has some of the highest tv ratings in the last decade, he has had ratings as high as 6 Million???

    Haymon has helped to promote the 2 highest grossing PPV's of all times!!!!

    So Spence has gone from 6,000,000 viewers as a challenger, to 600,000 viewers as a World Champion?

    What has Al Haymon done wrong?
    See how easy it is?

    Hearn made 2 statements when promoting Jacobs.

    1 - I will raise his profile
    2 - I will get him a rematch with GGG

    HBO Main Eventer as the A side + Over 850,000 viewers + GGG's WBA Mandatory......

    Not bad from 2 'poor' and 'uninspiring' performances.

    If you were up to date on the middleweight division, and whats going on there, you would know why he cant make those fights happen right now.

    Im not trying to be rude but your criticisms are pretty hollow. Like I said in my previous post, this is a very transparent hate thread, one that lacks any real merit.




    Here, lets do this... how about you name the specific fighter you think Hearn should make fight Jacobs next.

    Just name the one you think should be next.

    I think Golovkin would knock Jacobs out this time and unknown jr. middleweight came close to beating him, landed way too many punches, Golovkin would have knocked him out last Sat. Jacobs and Charlo should fight each other to earn the right for a Golovkin fight...................Charlo will find that a cripple can't fight as well as Golovkin and neither can Pee Wee Herman!

    Considering hearn will be making a big announcement in regards to matchroom USA withing a few weeks I wouldn't take Dibella prediction seriously.

    Like others have said. HBO has a limited amount of dates. Hearn can only work with the dates he is given when trying to keep Jacobs active.

    You are criticising Hearn for Jacobs performances but find it annoying that Hearn gets credit for how AJ has done in his fights...clearly you’re not biased.

    What should Hearn be doing with Jacobs right now?

    What should his next move be?
