    I remember a few weeks ago Eddie claimed they had sold 80,000 tickets. Then the week after he said 'we've sold close to 70,000'. I doubt they've sold more than 50,000 in reality, they are probably giving the remaining tickets away to girl scouts and homeless drug addicts to make Wembley look full. Eddie's new pal Billy Joe is helping him get the crack addicts in to the stadium.

    It's against the rules to post links to sources.

    You need to check the Guardian for the quotes.

    I'm surprised it's taken him this long to use this angle to sell the fight was expecting the whole Brit/Russian beef at the moment to be used much sooner. You'd have to be an idiot not to use it to your benefit. Hearn in just doing his job and trying to make as much money as possible by selling as many tickets and PPV's.

    Yeah just doing his job spouting xenophobic anti Russian propaganda

    You matchroom goons will co-sign anything just so long as you can justify it by stating it makes them money.

    Eddie could be starving children and forcing them into slave labor and you goons would celebrate and glorify it

    ''He's just trying to make as much money as possible to sell those tickets''

    Its a pity Povetkin doesn't have the backing of Kadyrov, then we'd be guaranteed a positive test for AJ post fight.


    Hearn milking this despicable fabricated delusional Left Wing Soros/corporatist backed fantasy Red Scare for all its worth I see, what a piece of human excrement he is. He and every other so-caled progressive should be ashamed of themselves. They'll all look back at 2017/18 in 10 years in shock, realizing they all became the very thing they made countless films back in the 60's and 70's bashing, Right Wing fear mongering red baiting McCarthyites.

    Supposedly Joshua is this big draw that people can't wait to line him to buy tickets as soon as they are on offer, so why does Hearn has to use this anti Russian angle to drum up hype?

    It’s absolutely reprehensible for Hearn to make it a political thing. Where’s the respect for Povetkin? Unless it comes from Povetkin’s mouth Hearn should shut his mouth. It’s Hearn’s job to sell the fight yes, but there are ethical boundaries.

    I'll be waiting for the news two Russian boxing fans were caught on CCTV entering Wembley holding a bottle of Novichok disguised as a bottle of Pepsi...

    It was the best of promotions. It was the worst of promotions.

    Tomorrow Eddie will bring a puppy to the press conference and put a gun to its head and threaten to shoot it if the event does not sell out.
