Barry Hearn: The People's Promoter

Will this documentary be looking at his involvement in only snooker or will it go into boxing?

 

Oozes creepiness. Boy done good though.

 

at the Neil Robertson bit

 

Frank Maloney "I lost Chris Eubank to Barry over a cup of Earl Grey tea".

 

Great bit of tele.

Barry has done really well, fair play to him.

How much is he worth then? With the Darts/Boxing & Snooker, he has got to be earning a pretty penny, hasn't he!?

Bruno/Bugner "The Last Word".

 

Just watched it, pretty good, can't deny the man has achieved a fair bit, and that he has some charisma.

Really want to believe he is as decent as all the contributors would have you think, but can a man who has stayed at the top of the game for so long in such a notoriously cut throat business really be that decent and honest?

:think

 

Full footage of the fight was taped over apparently by ITV so that's the most complete version you are going to see.

 

Great show, a real grafter.

 

I was surprised that Barry still seems to control the majority of the business including the boxing, I thought the boxing side of Matchroom was 100% Eddies now.

 

I think Barry is still the man even with the Boxing, but Eddie will attract a bigger and younger audience and therefore is the face of it.
