Agreed. Just the same old **** wrapped up in a new package. Always thought Hearn had a used car salesman look about him, i could imagine him selling dodgy motors to gullable punters inbetween taking snorts of coke if it wasn't for his daddy.
professional boxing is first and foremost a business and since the lovely Mrs T business has placed the love of money above the importance of honesty so what should we expect.
What has Eddie got to do with the judges? People wanted challenging fights for our boxers and that's happening. Beltran won the fight clearly by a couple rounds but nether Eddie or Ricky can be blamed for bad judging.
what is Eddie supposed to say? its obvious he's going to say it was close & you have to rip the belt from the champion etc etc because he's Burns' promoter. Burns appears to be on borrowed time as a champion. Thats 2 fights now Burns has been fortunate to hold on to his belt.
Fair play to Eddie he's come out and said he personally scored it for Beltran, better than billy nelson claiming it was a fair result
