Hearn is a total flop. The DAZN WBSS Deal massively outshined his

    @Davo You need help buddy :lol: Just accept that you are in love with a greasy man in Eddie Hearn and your anger will fade. You can maybe live a normal life.

    Eddie is here to stay. Be free! #EarnWithHearn

    So do you get paid by Matchroom per post or are you on some kind of salary?

    Don King was a scumbag who lied to his fighters and robbed them blind. Hearn is a scumbag who lies to the fans and robs them blind. Hearn's also not opposed to completely lying to his fighters if it's in Matchroom/Sky's best interests.

    Don King put on great cards. Hearn puts on the shittest cards in boxing history.

    I would struggle to clearly say Hearn is "better" tbh.

    WTF are you taking about? Fighters hate Hearn and talk sheet about him all the time. Haye called him out to his face, as did Frampton. Fury Hates him, Billy Joe has repeatedly **** on him, Wilder clearly hates him, Broner called him out for being cheap AF, Josh Taylor hates him, O'Hara Davies **** on him... I could go on.

    Every fighter who doesn't need him for Sky thinks he's a twat. The man is one of the most hated figures in boxing right now. How you think that's up for debate I'll never know.

    Also, what major promoter "stiffs" their fighters in 2018?

    WTF are you on about? Boxing is clearly bigger per capita in the UK than the US. Nobody apart from you would ever argue otherwise.

    Boxing also makes much more money in the US. This is another fact that isn't up for debate. The TV money is much bigger, the PPVs generate orders of magnitude more and the gates are much higher. The US has a much much bigger population and their GDP is at least 5 times the UK.

    UK based title holders do no fight better opposition than us title holders. They never have in the past either. For you to say that is beyond stupid and shows your lack of basic boxing knowledge.

    :lol: thanks bud. That whole video is pretty hilarious.

    Does Eddie act juvenile because it helps him sell or is he really that immature?

    I was clearly talking about boxing.

    Muhammed Ali, Mike Tyson, Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather were all pretty awful in their private lives. Are we supposed to factor that in when judging what they've done for boxing?

    Don King killing a man doesn't make Hearn's cards any less sheet.

    No, we're supposed to be able to agree that Don King is "worse" than Eddie Hearn.

    But don't worry about it, you clearly have your own thing going on :lol:

    I am about to apply as soon as i can figure out where.
    I will not let this thread die. Bookmarked this ****. This troll ass thread made me into an Eddie fan :lol:

    Im'a bump this baby every time DAZN has an update. Be it Eddie signing Mikey Garcia or announcing a **** fight.

    The amount of stupidity that was posted here is astonishing.

    Why are you pretending you didn't always love Eddie Hearn and everything Matchroom? Do you get paid less if you're exposed as a staff member?

    He did indeed flop on all his DAZN related promises. Sorry you find that personally difficult to hear but facts are facts.

    The point I was making - from the post you quoted - is that King seems to be less hated than Hearn and that this makes absolutely no sense.

    Let's say for a moment you are correct in saying that Hearn is just as bad as King. It's arguable, but presume it's true for arguments sake. He's been a boxing promoter for how long? King was at it for six decades. Even if you're bang on you're still wrong. Hearn hasn't had anything like the amount of time to do the damage King has done.

    Plus, he's killed two people.

    So yeah, however bad Hearn is comparing him to Don King is pretty lame, really, and reeks of hysteria.

    Jesus ****! Do we have to over this again?!?!

    Yes, Eddie thought because he had the money he could sign the big names. He thought wrong. As i have always stated. (I expected him to deliver some names but i never cared. DAZN is not available to me. I have no stakes in it.)
    His initial lineup is a letdown. As i have said since the announcement.

    Why are you constantly beating the same dead horse?

    I didn't compare him to Don King, you did. Once you did, I simply said that in boxing terms Hearn is arguably worse for the fans. Hearn consistently ensures the biggest fights don't happen. I care more about big fights being squashed than anything else. I wouldn't care if you want to call me selfish, but I just want to see the best fight the best and that has never been what Eddie Hearn is about.

    He's been around for about a decade and I think that's long enough to judge him.

    The fact people like yourself think it's shocking that I might criticise someone so anti-competition is just odd.

    I think Hearn is bad for boxing and puts on terrible cards. That doesn't mean I think Don King is a swell guy or that murder is no biggie. You want to call out hysteria, maybe check out that bizarre train of thought you got yourself on.

    I feel like I repeat myself much less that you do. Maybe I'm wrong but your lame AF hash tags suggest otherwise.

    ****ING
    HASHTAG

    Which was meant as a joke.
    You can feel whatever you want to. But the point is you keep talking in circles. And instead of any real debate you resort to: "dickriding!" and "Paid by Matchroom!"

    You just posted about Eddie failing to deliver on his initial promise and i agreed. Yet you completely ignored that again and posted an attack on my character.
    :lol:
