Eddie Hearn vs Simon Jordan RBR

Jordan isn’t stupid but how long has Eddie been in the game? I’m no Hearn fan but he was never gonna come out of this looking stupid, and was gonna drag Jordan into waters he couldn’t swim in

 

true, it's easy to look clever when you're talking against Martin Keown whose DNA is 60% Womble and 40% Cucumber.

 

Polo

 

Drafts is a bit bitchy too

 

Do not get me started on Kerplunk mate.

 

Mutual respect at the end of 12 rounds leaving one with the impression that Jordan and Hearn would make one hell of a partnership if they joined forces.

 

so when’s the grilling of Warren or Tyson coming up?

 

I just listened to it. I often criticise Hearn but I think he spoke sense. Jordan just came across as argumentative and like he lacked knowledge in what he was trying to discuss.

 

Hahaha good one. Frank Warren, the conman who tells boxing channels not to ask certain questions.

 

I can see from the responses on here that Hearn will get away with promoting Benn's fight in June. Watched it again and his reasoning was absolute bollocks. We all know if this was Felix Cash he would have dumped him. I'm not mad at him, I wouldn't let Benn go either when he is next after AJ but don't **** on me and tell me it's raining.

 

Fury and countless other fighters have got away with being drug cheats if you’re popular enough, nature of the very weird sport.

 

True but this one is extra mad because it's still up in the air. Imagine he seriously damages his next opponent?

 

Yes I share your opinion on Jordan, he does my head in with the way he seeks to put as many long words as possible in a sentence to dress up what's typically a by the numbers opinion. Circumlocution* isn't clever.

I was driving, only caught some of it and although the knockabout stuff was entertaining, the talking over each other was really irritating as a listener. Maybe a different experience for those watching the streamed video?





*he says, deliberately using a long word when there's a simpler way of getting the point across.

 

Eddie Hearn "It's on the board to call it off I legally can't call a fight off"

Also Eddie Hearn "I was the one who called the fight off"

Simon Jordan "............."

 

This. And also compared to the other boxing content on TalkSport it was a hell of a lot more entertaining. If Hearn retired as a promoter he'd be good value on the pundit circuit, if he could be bothered.

Compare the likes of Hearn doing this stuff vs Bellew, Oliver, Fearon, etc etc?
