    Better than just one person dominating... plus I think he tries to make good fights... not the hype builders he puts the prospects in, but the murray crolla type bouts

    I don't think much of promoters in general, but I think Eddie is one of the better ones.

    Definately. You may not like the way he goes about his business (I for one do) but his approachability and open-ness is a breath of fresh air.

    He's a puff

    He needs to sort the brook porter fight out, plus he needs to fight overseas more

    Best promoter at the moment but his company has got themselves in a great position so he doesn't have to try too hard, esp as other promoters options pretty much are limited to boxnation to take their fights

    He's had it handed to him on a plate, but he's done a very good job with what he's been given (both by daddy and by Sky). At least he's a promoter who knows what year it is.

    Yes. The positives outweigh the negatives.

    Yes, BUT...

    He NEEDS to put on more shows, IMO.

    Not only that but he also needs to make his matches a lot more competitive. Some of them are about as one-sided as a Bukkake scene.

    And sort the f*cking Kell situation out. Kell has REGRESSED under Hearn, that's a fact.

    Of course he is, everything in this world has positives and negatives, for Hearn his positives far outweigh his negatives.
