    His point is that AJ Bxing(Buatsi's PR Handlers) will be unlikely to work with Warren and BT given they are Sky Affialted. That is a Valid Point as Buatsi-Yarde would need strong promoting, can you imagine Hearn and AJ Saying "tune into BT this evening for a massive clash, it'll be like Joshua-Whyte all over again, two of England's finest young boxers" on BT Sport... Sky would surely want that fight as it indirectly involves Anthony Joshua...

    It's moving the goalposts. Hearn has more than once said no promotional issues on his side and the fight doesn't have to happen on Sky. By that I take it that he wouldn't deny Buatsi a very good payday if it was offered.

    All we can do is take what we hear and one side has said they want the fight. Now that may mean it doesn't happen but the only obstacle put up to the fight so far came from Warren.

    Warren is a outdated, bitter man. He probably still relies on correspondence through the letterbox to keep in touch with his fighters. Yarde and His trainer will make the final decision:

    "After the next fight".
    And Scott Quigg (with the same promoter) always wanted Rigondeaux after the next fight.

    Meanwhile, Hosea Burton who hasn’t had a decent fight since the Buglioni fight nearly two years ago is waiting for the call, any call from Hearn..

    Buglioni needs to try to come back and is at Hearns mercy...

    Callum Johnson’s world title fight looks like it’s makebelieve as he’s only entitled to 15% of an already small purse as Beterbeiv is not a big money fighter despite being a beast...

    Can somebody please answer the question that myself, Big Doofus and some others have been asking...WHY is Hearn not talking about making those fights for Buatsi?

    He's concentrating on his billion dollar USA deal, which so far has 0 fighters and the same number of subscribers. Kugan Cassius is impressed.

    Burton turns 30 in 3 months. His last opponent had 4 wins and a draw, but looking at his record these were obtained in gym fights and not one of his opponents had ever won a fight.
    WTF is Swiss Tony Hearn waiting for?
