    Exactly. Hasn't even ran 1 show yet the haters are already calling it a failure. That's some real desperation.

    he is not a top fighter. He acts like he is Floyd Mayweather level, but he is more like Zab Judah when Zab started to lose more.

    Vanes wasn't a good example, since like Stiverne he was out of the ring for two years and jumped in with the number 1 in his division. That isn't manly, but stupid and desperate, since look at the result.

    Foreman talked about former world champions such Ali and Larry Holmes coming off long layoffs and immediately fighting elite competition and how they were easily destroyed because of it. Foreman despite being almost 40 in his comeback took over 20 fights over a 4 year period before challenging Holyfield, which resulted in a loss, but Foreman was competitive. If foreman fought Tyson or Holyfield in the late 80's early 90's he would've been easily stopped.

    Broner has made the right career moves, but unfortunately he isn't getting the job done in the ring, which is why his earning power has stagnated.

    Stevenson was pretty much holding out for the Hopkins or Kovalev payday, but neither were interested and instead fought each other. Adonis tried for the Ward fight, but Ward also had no interest, but in hindsight Ward should've took the fight Adonis is completely shot now.

    Wilder's team in all honesty moved him perfectly. By getting him all of those fights even if against less than stellar opposition they got Wilder the ring experience he was badly in need of due to his limited amateur experience. By the time he fought Stiverne in 2015 he was 32-0 and was ready to fight anyone in the division.

    Joshua on the other hand is quite the athlete and talented, but in my opinion was pushed too fast. He was able to pick up easy titles against Martin, who shamefully quit and Wlad, who was over 40 and coming off a long layoff. Joshua has accomplished a lot inspite of his lack of experience, but now his team are starting to face reality and recognize how foolhardy it would be to put Joshua, who is still very green with only 21 fights in the ring with Wilder. However, since Joshua has 3 world titles and claims he is the best in the division he can't hide behind his lack of experience.

    It’s 1 fight every 6 months. It’s 3 fights, but on that pattern it would really be 2 fights a year.

    Try not to be so small minded. I hate Eddie Hearn because of all the lies and BS he has been peddling since the Prizefighter days. I call him out on the fact he lies constantly but pretends to be a straight talker. I'm not therefore going to lie and pretend to be impartial. I'm not a journalist and I don't work in boxing. I'm just a knowledgeable fan giving his opinion while showing the appropriate level of respect to the idiots and sheep that often reply to me on this forum.

    I'm dropping facts and hate on Hearn. Both have equal merit and the latter was entirely earned by the big fat bender himself.

    WTF is wrong with you? PBC put on about 40 shows in the past 12 months. They're the most active promotion in boxing and have the best stable of fighters in the world by far. If Hearn could ever achieve that it'd be a dream come true for him. Unfortunately for him and all the sycophants like you, there is absolutely no reasonable argument for that ever happening.

    PBC has run tons of massive shows and has already done everything Hearn says he will do in the 2 year US deal he has with DAZN. Regardless of that simple fact, you still revel constantly in calling Haymon and PBC a failure. So please explain by what metric you judge success.

    From what I can gather, you claim ROI is an extremely important factor in your decision making. You seem to claim Haymon has taken hundreds of millions of investment in, used it poorly, and then not returned anything back in the time-frame agreed with the investors. Following that logic, I trust that if Eddie Hearn does not generate $125mn worth of increased subscriptions for DAZN in the next 12 months you will be shouting from the rooftops that he is a failure. That is, if you truly believe he has a $1bn 8-year deal with a broadcaster as you say he does.

    As I see it, you either work for Matchroom or are so hypnotised by Bloated Charlatan Hearn's brown eye that you can't help but talk pure balls just like him. Every argument you have made to me is a past Hearn argument. You may as well be copying and pasting from his IFL interview transcripts. If at all possible, try and apply some original thought to the situation.

    Put it this way if after 2 years Eddie Hearn has lost hundreds of millions and not built any box office stars then yes I will call it a failure. What else could it be called?

    So you agree that you expect Hearn to generate well over $125mn in new DAZN subscriptions in the next 12 months?

    Looks like Broner will get hit in the pocket for ignoring the NDA.

    Eddie also said his phone hasn't stopped since broner posted the figures.

    Will announce signings end of June.
