    The promoters do not take into account the health of the boxers. It's business and nothing else.

    Can't say I'm really surprised by the reaction to today - the whole DK thing really opened my eyes to boxing and the depths to which people will go to make a few quid. Money over morals in this sport.

    If there's one good thing these YouTube boxing channels have given us, it's that's there's a always a wealth of footage of Hearn mouthing off in these situations that come back to bite him. Without that, he might almost be able to get away with it...

    There are lots of clips on YouTube where Eddie Hearn attacks others for the exact same thing :)

    The "I haven't commited any violations" line is hilarious.

    You've literally failed a test you tosser.

    That’s because you’re uneducated and have no idea about anything. Typical sports fan who thinks his opinion is worth anything.

    They may as well just legalise drugs in sport because it goes on at all levels in almost all sports.

    So rather than pretend it doesn't and be shocked when someone gets pulled up wouldn't it actually be fairer to say level playing field everyone use what you want.

    Seems he's been seriously on the gear. The female fertility drug is loaded with oestrogen which will balance the huge levels of testosterone steroids will produce.
    Did anyone read his interview with Donald McRae in the Guardian this week ? Came across like a menopausal woman. Hormones all over the place.

    And that's as dangerous as anything else. This fight has been ridiculous from the day it was suggested.
