    I listened to most of the TalkSport show today. To be honest I thought Jordan was kind of put in his place a little bit - we didn't learn anything but Hearn is a good debater, he stuck to his lines and with a few corrections and factuals, Jordan looked more like sniping than countering.

    It sounded like the kind of argument I'd have with my mates and get them a pint afterwards though.

    Watching this at the moment, sounds like two bell ends arguing in the pub over an off-side decision.

    I remember when Fury announced his comeback and when some journalists tried to question Fury about the UKAD ban they were just ignored.

    It's a rare panel when all 3 are arseholes. Jim White the half wit who signed up to be a DK Probellum mouthpiece, and 2 posh eejits who couldn't fight a cold. Simon's so unlikeable he makes me root for Hearn.

    I didn't watch it but how many times did Simon Jordan say compelling? He loves using that word.

    In case Jordan's business acumen rubs off on him and MR goes into administration?

    I'm not a Hearn fanboy either. It's sad when people applaud him for paying his fighters. I don't give my employer a shout out when my wages go in.

    It’s all relative. If you work in an industry where being paid in time is the norm then it doesn’t matter. Compare that to a boxer whose in an industry where certain promoters have been shot, taken to court etc over witheld purses.

    Just watched this in full

    Credit to Eddie, blokes as cool as a cucumber

    He handled Jordans antagonising approach very well

    Eddie wiped the floor with SJ there.

    I think its hard to take the moral high ground when dishing out as many factual inaccuracies as SJ was. 9 times out of 10 he gets away with it as most TalkSport listeners mistake his opinion for fact , as he can come across as sounding intelligent and knowledgeable.

    Poor corner work from Jim , the towel should've be thrown in half way through that to save SJ to fight another day.

    What other sport do you have this sort of nonsense? Watched a bit and it was just 2 egotistical pricks shouting over each other and not making any real points.

    Pathetic
