    Makes sense. Probably has a decent deal too as he had leverage with pbc no doubt and the champions over there. Eddie has 126ers and the belt is useful here

    I don't know about "again". I don't think he'd signed with them before.

    Smart by Eddie. He probably knows Warrington is likely getting banged out again by Lara, so he will have a ready made replacement (minus the fan base).

    Smart business by hearn. Plenty of options to keep the title inhouse with kid or other matchroom fighters.

    Already heard him talking up Galahad v Wood as ‘Sheffield v Nottingham’, as if that’s even a thing.

    Its only a thing if wood is elevated to a full champion. If he is hearn sells it well. He will put the spin on it former gym mates 2 world champions massive unification fight. Truth wud b neither have beaten a world champion to gain their titles. But it has the potential to b a good fight.

    Smart move. Doesn't move tickets so hoping Warrington beats Lara.

    Galahad did force a World champion to relinquish his belt in the biggest duck in British boxing history.

    This signing has the same feel as those fans of football clubs where Tony Pullis or Fat Sam are appointed manager.

    Frampton relinquishing his European when Barry became mandatory was understandable. Warrington quitting was just shameful.

    U didn't answer the question. Warrington beat kid. Frampton never faced him.

    He also has long term options in Lara. So if he does do that which is a big if. He will take him back to the US and likely make Lara vs Galahad and Wood vs Warrington with the winners meeting.

    I think Hearn likes the idea of mini tournaments to crown a solid champion. Done the same with Estrada, Chocolatito, rungvisai and caudras
