    Big fan of what Eddie's doing, although I do feel shortchanged on the Froch card.

    Appreciate it's big money fight, but the undercard and PPV is pulling everyone's pants down. I wasn't expecting Brook/Bellew etc, but he could have made some reasonably cheap domestic dust ups.

    Could have had Rees/Crolla on there, Ochieng/Smith, BJS/Ryder (might be pushing it). Even a stay busy fight for Barker would have made sense.

    Just a bit off to put on a half arsed undercard and then get Selby etc out in Manchester after promising the world (Ifilm interview).

    his cards have been ****, and his future aspiration for some of his fighters are uninspiring. he wants to bring about changes and give the fights the fans want but so far has fell short of his statements.

    But you said "with whats transpired over the last couple of days this thread rightfully deserves a bump."

    In the last week Hearn has signed David Haye, put him on regular Sky, put together a great undercard, won purse bids for Saunders v Ryder.

    Based on that most people would have assumed you had changed your mind and were happier with Hearn than you were previously, but we know what your not.

    So what has Hearn done in the last couple of days to push your negative opinion of him?

    Barker v Geale is the most likley.

    Frampton could be the other but there has been whispers about Groves or John Simpson getting world title fights.

    Think Barker must be close. Other one I reckon is Groves.
