    Guess Hearn just lied about losing a load of money and it not doing as many buys as he wanted then…

    Technically speaking he has overheads and media/press to pay for. Plus employee costs etc. it barely turned a profit but. Didn’t kill the company. Just hardly worth doing.

    “The biggest loss was [Vasily] Lomachenko against Luke Campbell, because I made the big mistake of being a boxing fan.”

    “I was looking at it and going ‘this is massive’, you know, this is Lomachenko, pound-for-pound number one, the British fight fans love him, everybody knows him, and we filled the O2 [Arena] up – but the pay-per-view was very poor and it cost me a lot of money.”

    “Bob Arum came and didn’t lose any money, in fact made money while I lost money, and that hurt even more.”

    They can’t mate, it’s bizarre. You have to feel sorry for their friends (if they have any) and family who have to socialise with them.

    You have a big problem with the matchroom asslickers like drama show

    But you don't have a problem with @Dragon Punch whos exactly the same for Frank Warren/Queensbury

    Can’t say I’ve ever noticed that tbh. Just seems a normal solid poster to me.

    Lol I don't know how you've not noticed. He tipped Yarde to beat Beterbiev, Dubois to beat Usyk, and says Adeleye could be a future world champion lol

    “Ben Shalom has revealed that he's already in talks with Frank Warren's son George Warren to match the Joshua Buatsi vs Dan Azeez winner on Oct 21st vs Anthony Yarde next. He said they've agreed that the first fight (potential rematch clause) would take place on Sky.”

    Hope this gets made.
