    Damage is long done to his reputation, and rightly so

    Jordan lost all credibility when he claimed Robert Smith spike to matchroom on Friday.

    More importantly Robert Smith needs to answer as to why he is even revealing details to Simon Jordan.

    Robert Smith lied to Jordan about when he knew and lied to Shalom about when he knew about Khan drug fail. Probably best not to quote him

    Ever read his book on that saga? Might change your mind about him to be honest, one of the better football books I've read.

    I just cannot believe Jordan said that :facepalm:. wtf was he thinking? :duh It was like dropping yourself heavily in Round 1 with an uppercut thrown with your eyes closed and getting up on rubbery legs. Hearn is obviously bound to be aware of the basic facts before he smears them with his own bs. Jordan clearly didn't learn a thing from his last interview with Hearn. Complete sausage.

    Reading football books is mostly like reading the Sun ... its complete garbage and reads like it's written by a child

    That and his swearing at Hearn shows how immature he is and how little he knows.

    I can't take him seriously now.

    Utter nonsense. Try reading some decent ones and educating yourself.

    Best thing to happen to Hearn was Benn failing this drug test.

    Eubank Jr with a weight cut and everything he has been through (brother dying etc) v a juiced up Benn could have been very dangerous and possibly the end of Hearn if it went ahead.

    People have been giving simon jordan grief this week due to his row with Eddie, but I think it is unfair.

    Imagine sitting opposite hearn, knowing full well he has pulled a fast one over Benn and it should be a massive scandal. Having to listen to that dingbat pissing in your pocket and telling you its raining outside would be unbearable.

    Jordan is the only one in the media that is at least trying to hold hearn to account over the Benn situation - the rest of the sport doesn't give a ****.

    He ****ed up massively on the Robert Smith conversation, however. If you're going to go for the kill you've gotta land the killer blow.
