    So tell Mr Skinhead, how did Chisora cope and appear on ppv main events and fight for world titles without Eddie Hearn in his corner and selling his fights as grudge matches?

    Oh so you can't explain the success of other British fighters that made a career for themselves without Eddie Hearn and so want to now run away from the discussion?

    Apparently all a fighter has to do to forge a successful career for themselves as a fighter, is slap a world champion in the face!

    So why didn't your God Hearn think of that? It would have saved his fighters in his stable a lot of time and hard work having to climb up the rankings.

    And this is my topic if you didn't realise. So that means I decide what is being discussed.

    Is that all you've got to bring to table? Schoolboy insults that you'd never actually say in person!

    Why not take up a better challenge and attempt to succeed where the skinhead failed and try to explain to me, how other uk fighters have successfully managed to forge a career for themselves without Hearn?

    Was Hearn acting as their undercover promoter in the background, choosing instead, not to take credit for their achievements?

    I will await to hear what you Hearn lovers have to say.

    There are countless fighters yes, each with their own reason for success, but you pick the most predictable ones. Whyte would not have had a reason to succeed without Hearn, just like Bellew was not as successful till Hearn took him under his wing... despite having already had a mature career.

    Tyson Fury and his promoter Frank Warren barely compete with Hearn/ Matchroom whatsoever.

    And Amir was a national treasure on the boxing scene after showing up at the Olympics and getting Silver at age 17.

    Khan could have been promoted by a 10 year old and still been successful.

    Whyte had no such accolades, and never passed the eye test to get noticed by anyone who is a somebody in boxing.

    Try again.

    "who genuinely believe Dillian Whyte would be cleaning toilets and picking food out of bins, hadn't the great Eddie Hearn decided to step in and save Dillian's life"

    No that is not what we are saying. Whyte simply would not have been anywhere near as successful as he is now, just another Ortiz or a few levels below.

    He never would have made the earnings he has made since signing with Matchroom. He may have worked himself up towards a title shot and then negotiated a modest split with the Champ, and then god knows where Whyte would have gone from there.

    Browne, Parker, Chisora fights would not have sold as well as it did without Hearn's promotional prowess.

    Fast Eddy shifts tickets Fast.

    Not as fast as Wilder/Fury/Warren/Haymon though.... they just threw 100's of tickets out the window and firemen picked them up for free.

    Fury barely competes with AJ??? How?? He was getting world title fights when AJ was still feasting on his left overs. He's now ppv in America, something AJ is yet to do.

    He's now recognized in both the UK and US. The same cannot be said of Joshua or any other current matchroom fighter besides. K

    Amir khan yes, just like Joshua could have been marketed well by any promoter. I will concede that

    Yet you Hearn lovers seem to think it was Eddie's own hands which created AJ. Yet with Khan he done it all by himself :lol:

    Your hypocrisy and fanboydom couldn't be more transparent.

    And yet still, you failed to explain how Chisora was a success without Hearn.

    So you need to try again kiddo.

    You don't know that. I've listed countless of examples of British fighters who have had more lucrative careers than where DIllian whyte is today.

    It's just some narrative you've created to prop up Hearn.

    Dillian Whyte knows how to sell a fight, is a character and his fights are exciting. That's why he's mainly been successful.

    If Eddie Hearn was such a magician why are the likes of Okolie, Luke Campbell not already ppv stars? Because they are boring and have no personalities. The fighters are the phones doing most of the work, the promoters just put the shine, they do not lay the foundations. This new breed of ignorant boxing fans like yourself fail to understand and think it's the promoters doing all the work is which laughably stupid.

    As for tickets being sold, you missed out the fact that Eddie Hearn was shifting tickets illegally off to stubhub for most of Joshua's fights , pre Povetkin. Which is a lot worse than publicly giving tickets away to Firemen as a sign of respect.

    Why did you choose to omit that important piece of information? Bias or ignorance, you tell me?

    Basically if Whyte wasn't with Matchroom , he would have had some success , just not the coin to go with it.

    Omit?

    LOL there is nothing to omit as Hearn hasn't done anything illegal, don't try using you amateur journalistic hyperbole to spin the narrative, Stubhub is the official ticket distributor for Matchroom, don't like it? Tough luck.

    Funny you calling the firemen stunt as a show of 'respect' rather than what it actually was - a desperate PR bid to cover up the staggering number of unsold tickets at the time. After all, the stunt took place after 6 weeks of shockingly poor ticket shifting. They should have called Matchroom and Stubhub for some help.

    You've shown your hand as matchroom goon, defending their scamming operation where they were making fans pay 5 times the value of tickets.

    You failed to mention Stubhub is also one of Joshua's sponsors.

    It is ethically repugnant for a promotional company to be sponsored by a secondary market who they werhen selling them on for a profit.

    If you think that is comparable to two fighters giving away free tickets to firefighters who risk their lives everyday, some of them heroes from 911 surviors, then I really can't help you.

    While I agree the third party sales sites are a bit dodgy, I have bought tickets on there for 2 Joshua fights as soon as they were released on face value ( plus couple of pound handling fee ) . The only time they cost more is when people leave it too late and by others re sale tickets. If there wasn't the demand there wouldn't be the business. No one holds a gun to the head of the customer do they.
