    @NasalSpray can you find me one post on the forum where someone says Conor Benn is a good boxer or the next big thing? I’m struggling to think where on earth you’re getting he’s hyped from.

    Buatsi is set up for a big fall due to the hype around him. Fighting old super middleweights isn't going to help him progress in a dangerous light heavyweight scene, especially at world level.

    Where did I say anyone on this forum is hyping him? Matchroom hype train is fully behind him. He's headlining their next show on god nem

    He’s headlining a next gen show. Your rationale is ridiculous. So you’re saying promoters shouldn’t actually promote their fighters?

    Hearn should put Benn and Kelly in with a couple of very beatable also rans, build them up a bit more with the casuals whilst getting IFLTV to drum up some beef and then let them lose on each other to help pad out a PPV card next summer. Neither are going to be World Champions and that would be the best option to milk them before they are found out.

    I never said that either. Why do you always try to put words in other peoples mouths :lol:

    MATCHROOM is his PROMOTER

    This thread is about keeping track of MATCHROOM fighters who get derailed.

    Hence, why he is included.

    Jesus you are dense

    Poor matchmaking stemming from a need to replace retiring fighters capable of headlining shows such as Bellew.

    Also Hearn over matching fighters like Brook has left a huge gap for big names headlining free Saturday night shows.

    He’s not getting derailed because it’s common knowledge he’s not going anywhere in the first place.

    I don't (or rarely) laugh when fighters lose, I do however laugh when Eddie's Hearn suffers and his 'empire' takes a big hit as it did on Saturday. All promoters are ultimately greedy and self serving but Eddie has taken it to another level with his disdain for the fans.
