    Broner is such an idiot. If he didn't like the terms he should of just negotiated better terms, fewer fights per year or more money. Hearn clearly was open to discuss the terms.

    By making the details public he may have very well killed any chance of any further offers, Hearn might just decide he's more trouble than he's worth and move on to someone else. Broner isn't going to make better money elsewhere. He turned down $8 mill a year for 5 years from Roc Nation and now $6.75 mill from Hearn, what a fool.

    Some of Hearn's IFL videos have def crossed the line. His borderline racist 'black American' promoter voice used to send a message to Wilder was pretty offensive even if I don't think that was his intention.

    I'd still say that two wrongs don't make a right and this is another silly immature move by Broner who is essentially the Azealia Banks of boxing at this point.

    The biggest fools were Roc Nation for offering $40 million to this hack.

    True they definitely lucked out there, the Cotto deal was bad enough but the Broner deal would of lost them serious money.

    The Roc Nation deal was a joke. He wasn’t gonna be able to fight bums or lose fights and still have their checks coming in.

    It depends who he is fighting before we say its a good deal or not.

    Fight one would probably be a easy one. But if fight two is Khan, and Broner smokes him his stock rises but his next fight would only be 200k more and that could be Crawford or Spence or Thurman where he takes another L. He would surely get more fighting those guys above separately.

    If this 3 fight deal means he fights Eggington and other soft touches then its easy money. But im confident it wont be like that.

    I guess when you tell the world you have $1bn to spend people will want a larger slice of that pie. I think Hearn might be rubbing up people the wrong way talking like he's gonna waltz into the US market and clean up. Maybe Broner was encouraged to leak this deal, who knows? But for sure US boxing is gonna be a tough nut to crack for Matchroom.

    If his intention is to bust open wide the PPV model state-side, he ought not to be surprised if those who are making a fortune at the moment start to fight dirty. A very public rejection doesn't make his sell any easier....

    Can you imagine working with a crank like Broner where the sums are in the millions...Eddie did himself a favour by screening Broner here, the guy is clearly mental.

    That's 1 fight every 6 months which is twice a year not 3 times a year. What part of that offer is he not jumping on?

    poor guy, maybe he should try a job requiring forty hours a week or more, for far less.

    If you don't like the offer (which is more than adequate) at least don't make it public like that... What a moron... :facepalm:
