    He sells fights. He's a saleman. He gets the deal done and then sells the fights. i don't mind as long as the fighters aren't getting ripped off and the fights are good match-ups. It's the same as the strawberry, would you care if he sold you the strawberries if they were cheap and tasty? I certainly wouldn't.

    He's much more likeable than Al Gaymon

    That guy literally just made 1 pound per minute!! That £60 per hour, £420 a day doing 9 till 5. £2100 a week and £8400 a month from just selling strawberries!! The average monthly wage in the the UK is £1100.

    At this rate.. If Eddie sold strawberries for a living he'd still be making £100,800 year ($130,000)

    Thats mental.. He's seriously gifted with the gab. He could sell poo to a toilet and cinco de mayo to Mexicans.

    Do you think he could actually make that much doing that though?

    Haha so true. British people are known for being some of the most moodiest people around. It's not our best quality.. We complain about everything from the weather to the grins on other people's faces.. and hate to see others happy or succeed.

    Well if he can keep up that energy for the entire shift.. Why not.

    Put it this way.. That fruit and veg stall made £4 in less tham 4 minutes because of Eddie.. If Edward Hearn wasn't there, all those people would have walked past. It's not easy being a salesman. But he looks the part and has the personality so he does it very well.

    If I could it as well as him I'd be doing it lol. 100k a year sounds nice.

    Hearn is just a modern slave owner that's all.

    been doing it for 35 years / its price and quality that sells not the patter
    he would have to take 500k gross to earn 100k net / dooable if you get a good weather year but your mrs and kids would only see you asleep.

    Best strawberries in Hull ain't cheap, I've done some recalculating.. New figures show if Hearn sold strawberries for a living, he'd go bankrupt and become homeless in 3 and a half months. Lol
