    I'm glad they aren't getting away with this. Was a stupid fight to begin with.

    Eddie Hearn crys when a fighter dies and claims the sport has to do their best

    Doesn't care when his event has PED users

    I'm glad this **** ain't happening now. You can't let this pass, no matter how lucrative it was.

    This is actually more circumstantial evidence that AJ is dirty.
    Why? Because it yet again proves that Hearn has no problem representing busted PEDders despite claiming outrage, and not only that, but always tries to cover up or minimise their violations, using the great powers he has in the sport to do so.
    The statement tried to highlight the fact this fighter passed UKAD and other testing.
    That just demonstrates how useless all that is. And how it is actually used as a cover even.
    And people should remember this every time Hearn tells us how clean AJ is and how many tests he's passed.

    Imagine if Eubank tested positive, Hearn would be having a meltdown

    Edward Hearn earlier this year:

    “You have to understand, when he [Miller] failed the drugs tests for the Anthony Joshua fight he was injecting things into him to beat Anthony Joshua. That’s outrageous, criminal. Ultimately, I don’t think he should be allowed to fight again but I’m not the governing bodies, I’m not the commissions. I like Jarrell Miller. I think he’s a nice guy, but the fact is he repeatedly cheated to try to gain an unfair advantage in a fight against another athlete."

    From calling Miller an "outrageous criminal" to trying to force forward a PED cheat fight against the wishes of the BBoBC.

    Eddie Hearn is total scum.

    Matchroom/Hearn are having an absolutely horrendous year :)

    E-Hearn said this is the biggest fight he's ever worked on

    He reckons it will do 1 mill PPV buys

    They've really been giving it the push

    Billboards and posters all over the shop albeit I haven't personally seen any because I'm still on holiday in the big house for violating my probation

    Appearances on terrestrial TV to hype up the fight

    I bet Matchroom's rivals are in stitches today.

    Is this why Benn seemed so confident?

    Guess Eubank senior was right to be concerned. This fight should not happen full stop.
