Conor Benn Vs Jaron Ennis

You would be surprised if you knew how many boxers end up in debt to their promoter

 

It's obviously the biggest money maker, and yes it is a big fight with the correct marketing push- but I really wonder if it is as 'massive' as they say it is.

A lot of the sales pitch for this is based on the fights between the Dads. As good as these fights were, took place 34 & 31 years ago which means anyone under 40 likely doesn't remember them - that is a huge section of your average arena attending / ppv buying market.

On top of this, neither of them are top level world class, and in Conors case its questionable if he is even British level.

As much as the YouTube channels try to push Eddie's narrative that Conor is one of the biggest names in boxing - the facts are he's never had any large level of fanbase. His most recent fights he headlined have been In function rooms, and before that it was a less than half full UK arena.

This is only big because it features Eubank JR. I imagine in negotiations he could demand what he wants
