Amir Khan Vs Paul McCloskey Build-Up Thread!

How the hell can anyone say it's for the fans when he's charging them for a fight and card that wasn't deemed pay per view standard?

 

I see but I think Hearn is bit of a hypocrite as he was involved in the Haye-Harrison farce!

 

In what sense?

Haye-Harrison made absolutely perfect commercial sense for Hearn!

 

God knows he made random comparisons him and Top Rank, when they went to Showtime instead of HBO, greatness, even by his standards he was talking some serious crap.

Loved how Eddie Hearn just stopped him and asked how is it about the fans, didn't like Eddie through the Haye-Harrison promotion but gotta say that he has most certainly brought me around and I am know a fan of his.

 

Yeah but Hearn is not in a great position to be talking about fans.

He knew very well he was promoting a farce in haye/harrison, guy ain't stupid.

 

I agree that whole charade and talking up that fight really pissed me off. What made it worse was him and his dead talking down the true Boxing fans, saying that we don't matter.

Still he has scored some major points with me for speaking the truth about the crap Team Khan have pulled right to their faces.

 

the mismatch was bad for the sport of boxing IMO

 

khan-mccloskey is also a mismatch

 

i was expecting hearns to get passionate and at least throw something at a team khan member he was poor

 

Not on the level of Haye-Harrison. He and the rest talked it up to be a meaningful fight. At least Khan's lot are treating their fight for what it is and not pretending it to be anything but a tune-up.

 

Oooh less than 23 hours til Khan gets brought back down to Earth! Bet you can't wait Laz

 

Will you give credit where it's due IF Khan wins?

 

Yeah absolutely especially if he looks impressive again doing so. No one can deny that back to back wins over Kotelnik, (forget Salita), Malignaggi and Maidana are impressive.

 

Fair enough.
