Shock Horror a Promoter actually promoting an event. Did anyone see even an interview in the last two Warren shows.
Saturday's a great day for sport: The famous Glasgow Rangers kicking off the league campaign at lunch time, FA Cup Final and then some boxing.
Hearn seems really up for this fight camp promo. It's as tho he's set himself up to deliver a real good promotion considering the circumstances. The bt shows, whilst delivering a night of boxing have been a tad underwhelming . Hearn will see this as an opportunity, no doubt.!
Mick has been promoting his Channel 5 shows better than the BT efforts. It’s really not hard to promote an event nowadays with social media but Hearn obviously has a massive advantage over other promoters in terms of reach/numbers. Fair play to him but the cards are weak even by recent Sky standards.
At this point most people will be tuning in just to see what it looks like rather than the actualy fights. Win win
Watching some of the interviews with Hearn this week you can tell how excited he is for these events and how much he loves the sport. Compare that to Warren who had all the enthusiasm of a man putting on a show to save the lives of family members being held at gunpoint.
Only seen clips on YouTube but it already smacks of high production values, especially so when you consider it's in his garden. I think (hope) it'll look great on the night. Like others have said, fair play to Hearn..he knows how to do it in style and doesnt mess about.
Let’s not forget, Hearn is going to be trying to sell a £20 PPV from his garden at the end of August...he has to go all out with the facilities. It wouldn’t shock me, if he tries to do AJ-Pulev in his garden as well as even before COVID, I’m not convinced that the box office interest would be there for this fight.
Am I the only boxing fan in the UK not that bothered this event is on? I think its dreadful. The only interest I have in this card is a friend of mine has had a decent bet on Reece Bellotti beating Jordan Gill at 3/1. I just can't get excited about this one, the main even though will be rather one sided in my opinion. Cheeseman wins comfortably.
