    In my unbiased opinion it is Eddie Hearn

    The return of King Khan
    British Beef, 2 undefeated prospects Okolie vs Chamberlain
    The phoenix rises with Brook vs Rabchanka
    The best heavyweight fight to be made Joshua vs Parker
    Who will enter the top 5 of the heavyweight division Whyte vs Browne
    Domestic Tearup Dodd vs Coyle
    Big step-up Cheeseman vs Jones
    Quigg going for glory Valdez vs Quigg
    It's personal, it's Haye vs Bellew 2

    and much much more to come!
    Who can compete?

    Hearn has had a good start.

    But the Brook fight is pants in reality. Joshua-Wilder is the best HW fight to make; I actually have more intrigue in Wilder-Ortiz to be honest. But yeah, he's certainly had a much stronger start than Warren so far.

    In short, no one can compete with Eddie. There's only one other living human being who could even come close

    Thanks for the input but you forgot to say which promoter is having a better start.

    Look I know Oscar isn't doing great at the moment but there is no need for the course language.
    Personally I think Matthysse vs Kiram and Linares vs Gesta is a good little card for you guys.
    We just expect a lot more over in the UK.

    British beef is a domestic scrap that nobody outside of the UK and most probably in the UK don't care about.

    Brook is washed up, that could be a great scrap but in the grand scheme of things nobody cares about it at all.

    Parker vs AJ is an excellent match up for sure

    Whyte vs Browne is also pretty tasty, I dig it.

    Dodd vs Coyle and Cheeseman are not fights to salivate over. I wouldn't even watch the 1st and my only interest in Cheeseman is to see a prospect tear up a bloke who went life and death with Brook.

    Quigg Valdez = snooze fest

    Haye vs Bellew at least has name value I suppose.

    All in all WBSS is much better overall really

    Warren needs to get Fury signed up quick, and Saunders to fight Canelo or GGG signed. Otherwise he is in trouble at the start of the year. Frampton vs Donaire against Khan's comeback will be interesting. Khan will probably win big, but if the frampton fight gets even half of the khan numbers I call it a success for warren.

    They also need Liam Smith vs Saddam Ali over the line fast. That's a well matched fight I'd say, pretty even on paper. And apparently Terry Flanagan is going to face Maurice Hooker, so that's another one to add.

    Eddie is ahead though. But with BJS vs GGG/Canelo, Smith vs Ali, Flanagan vs Hooker, Frampton vs Donaire, Selby vs Warrington etc, it's not a bad start

    you should watch the 1st one tbh, thats actually a really good fight. and I don't see how you arrived at the conclusion Quigg/Valdez will be a snooze fest? That should be quality. I agree with the last point though, hard to top the WBSS

    I'll pass on watching them,

    Has Quigg ever had an exciting fight? The bloke bores me to sleep
