Eddie is now building a nice stable of fighters at Matchroom, such as Darren Barker and Paul McCloskey. He has all the charm and genius of his dad Barry, and like his dad, he puts the public and the fighters before himself. His latest Prizefighter, the international heavyweights featuring Martin Rogan and Kevin Johnson will be exciting viewing. The Hearns and Matchroom appear the most selfless boxing promoters in the world. Could Hearn fill the void that Arum, King and eventually Warren will leave? Can he eclipse Goldenboy and Sauerland? Matchroom are certaintly the most considerate and conscientious boxing promoters out there. They also have an eye for talent and innovation.
Nope.. Arum and King have been doing their thing for decades.. You could say they're ATG's while Eddie Hearn is an unproven prospect.. Even after Bob is gone, he'll probably just pick someone else to take over Top Rank.. GBP is going to be around for a long time.. Besides, his boy McCloskey is about to get sparked..
I'm impressed by him, this prizefighter set for May sounds really good although it does have the look of a pull out or two.
Eddie Hearn is a great promoter, see him going places, says the right things and puts on the right shows. :rasta
Eddie Hearn 'a selfless man who cares about the boxing fan'. This is the man that helped pull that Audley Harrison event, what a load of bollocks!!!
Most domestic boxers have never had a payday like that before. If Hearn wants he can become the no.2 in Britain behind Warren :think.
I like him a lot. He comes across as intelligent, wit and even when he is spinning there is always an element on honesty. I'm a fan to be honest.
It's the type of promoting that we need to help draw boxing into the public eye, we can have all of the big money fights you like but if no one is interested then boxings going no where
