After Eddie Hearn / Matchroom chose to go to DAZN, an alliance has emerged among the other promoters to freeze Eddie Hearn out. Therefore, no one wants to work with him.
... and it's also part of the story that while Eddie Hearn was on top (with Sky Sports) he did not treat his promoter colleagues with respect.
Unsurprisingly, after saying he probably won't watch Brook v Khan, Eddie has once again backtracked and said he watched the fight and enjoyed it. We know Eddie doesn't have to promote fights he's not invoved in. I'd never expect him too. But the manner in which he goes out of his way to put down fighters and fights he isn't involved with is so childish and bitter.
