Why is Hearn bothering with this Monaco crap? Hasn’t he got enough on his plate already- he is spreading himself far to thin. This card is horrific already, but add that to the lack of atmosphere at these types of Monaco shows then it really stands to be a poor nights action.
Last two cards have been shocking. There are no point in these shows anymore. It’s just an excuse for Hearn and his chubby checker sidekick Frank Smith to have a jolly in Monte Carlo. Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee out on the lash in France accompanied by Creepy Adam Smith and Django Johnny Nelson.
That's a poor card indeed, however I must admit that in a weird way Zhilei Zhang v Alexander Ustinov catches my attention. Unstinov got outpointed by Charr of all people but he'll still be the very best opponent Zhang has faced.
Good to see Lebedev fighting again even if it's a mismatch against a undefeated fighter with a padded record. I am also interested to finally see Zhang against a "live body" and durable gate keeper in Ustinov. I have no interest in the Yafai bum curosale carousel though.
What even is the main event out of that lot? Yafai presumably because of the world title. Frankie boy wouldn’t even put this on at York Hall.
There is no one there. Hearn’s big names are all occupied around November/December already. The best you can hope for is another bum show for Yelleussinov. Hearn won’t waste any of his Brit ticket sellers on a show in Monaco because all the tickets go to wealthy gangsters and casino businessmen. Just a load of dossers being shipped out to Monaco to box on a pointless show.
They are adevrtising the Lebedev fight as a "WBA championship fight"? What trinket version of it is it?
