    Done well for Carl Froch imo.

    Got Bute in the UK.
    Got Kessler rematch in the UK.
    Got him 2 fights with Groves including one that sold 80k tickets. OK, those 2 fights were more forced on Froch but still you can't complain.

    And DeGale would actually be a good domestic showdown. Probably as good as anything else available other than Golovkin?

    Agreed, but Eddie and Carl are borderline lovers IMO.

    He knows how to match fighters to develop them

    He builds fighters and their rankings

    He has become the strongest promoter in Britain and has become the main man on sky

    He has gained good working relationships with the other leading promoters

    He puts on shows that are 10 times better than we had a few years ago

    He works with fighters with an eye for the future rather than single pay days

    He's given fighters more opportunities and given the British public bigger fights than other in the uk

    Scott quigg just needs to sit on his title until hd fight one if the 3 other champs. His career is right where it needs to be.

    Froch has fought 2 huge domestic fights and might have a 3rd which would also be huge. Why turn them down at the end of his career

    Joshua is fight a very god level of opponents for his fight 8 or 9 fights. He is actually exceeding most prospects in term of opposition.

    And crolla had his shot to get his ranking up. The fight ended in a TD. Nothing you can do about that. Should he have won then he'd be there ready for a step towards world honours.

    Plus the fact you said he thrives off rematches but only used 3 examples out of all the shows he's done. Those rematches are big fights. Why pulsing he make them?

    Found something on this... Quote:


    IT'S a classic mystery involving a beautiful girl and a heartless villain.

    Just who was the bully who made glamour model Jodie Marsh's life a misery at her private school?

    Former classmates were quick to identify a suspect when the Es*** Wives star said she started wearing her outrageous outfits in a quest for fame to "show her bullies I wasn't ugly and could be something".

    And the name that came up was Eddie Hearn - son of top boxing promoter Barry Hearn. One ex-classmate claimed: "Eddie fits the bill all right. There was an 'in-crowd' who used to pick on Jodie."

    Another added: "Eddie was part of a popular group. But I don't think he was popular, so much as a bully - and people were scared of him. He and Jodie didn't get on very well. She got a lot of sh** because she had a big nose. She wasn't very popular and definitely didn't enjoy school."

    Friends of Jodie - a close rival to Jordan in the upfront glamour market - have also pointed the finger at Hearn, 24, who now runs the golf section of his father's multi-million-pound sports management and promotion empire and also manages champion golfer Greg Owen and rookie John E. Morgan.

    But he firmly denies that he was the bully.

    "All I can say is there is no truth in it," he insists. "I've got nothing to do with the matter, I don't know what you are talking about ."

    Millionaire's daughter Jodie, 24, was educated at pounds 10,000-a-year Brentwood School in Es***, where famous old boys include Foreign Secretary Jack Straw and comedy star Griff Rhys-Jones. She has three A-levels and once dreamed of becoming a lawyer.

    Jodie has said she was picked on after rejecting the advances of a boy - but has never named him. She said: "This boy was the ringleader of the year, incredibly rich and popular When he asked me out I said no because all I wanted to do was learn...and then the nightmare began.

    "The bullying started when I was 11 and continued right through school. I was a bit of a boffin and got bullied for being clever. I was also bullied for my nose, which had a huge bump after I broke it playing hockey. Then I had a nose job and got bullied because of that."

    Eddie's father Barry Hearn, who is chairman of Leyton Orient Football Club, made his name in the 1980s as manager of snooker legend Steve Davis. He then broke into boxing, promoting world title fights for Frank Bruno, Chris Eubank and Prince Naseem.

    Asked if Eddie Hearn was her playground bully, Jodie smiled wryly and said: "No comment."

    He's got 3 World Champs under his wing.
    If you see what he did to darts (PDC).
    He sold out Wembley with the most succesful British boxing event ever.
    He's got the biggest HW prospect.
    He stole Degale from Hennesey.

    I don't see how this is bad. Hearn in my view is one of the most succesfull managers from the last 2/3 years.
