    Hearn now saying Eubank-Benn 'is only 48 hours from being dead.'

    It raises the question, can something die when it was never alive in the first place?

    Hearn is giving the impression it is about Eubank wanting too much money but Eubank has said he won't take the fight unless the BBBofC are onboard.

    Benn must have been on some serious juice the BBBofC clearly don't want him back in the ring anytime soon.

    Benn has ghosted the BBBofC from the very beginning. Even handing back his license. Now he and Hearn have the gall to seek a favour from them :rolleyes:

    I would love to see Conor Benn get his Karma in the ring but another part of me thinks that he doesn't deserve to make another cent off of the sport of boxing.

    RIP to a fight that nobody really cared much about and was only being talked about because they were riding off the names of 2 old retired rivals.

    Hearn's level of corruption and hypocrisy is rare indeed.

    This.

    What a shame we'll never get to see this fight of the century.

    Exactly. This was a domestic clash that Eddie desperately wanted to become a global event. But nobody outside of that little domestic bubble cared in the least. They aren't their dads.

    Exactly, how often does he bring a reigning ( men’s ) champion over here to fight one of his fighters in a match that the fans actually want to see.
