    He also held his own sparring Conor Mc 5 years ago. If he’s a step up then that’s a worry.

    I am expecting Robert Guerrero, who is a dreadful opponent

    Everyone is slamming the David Avvenysian oppenent (rightly) but at least there is the smallest possibility (very ****ing small) the undefeated lad might be OK. Where as the South African is a washed up corpse

    So much spin in this I feel dizzy.

    ‘He was good enough for Ennis to choose, Koogz’ but conveniently leave out the part where Van Heerden was in fact a late replacement for Dulorme who had covid.

    Conor Benn is being managed and coming along nicely. The problem is Eddie and Conor (and his team) are telling us the lad is something he’s not (right now). His progression in fights is spot on. It’s just a shame Matchroom are lacking stars so are really pushing this lad - to his detriment in my opinion.

    Just seen that Hearn said he probably won't bother to sit down and watch Khan v Brook because both men are finished ha ha. He is hilarious! What a man.

    We know both men are finished at world level but if Hearn was promoting this fight he'd be telling us it's unmissable because it's a grudge match between two of the best ever brits etc etc.

    Hearn says he's not bitter and tries to get away with believing as much with a wink and a smile but he's as bitter as any promoter. Every genuine British boxing fan is going to watch Khan v Brook, obviously. Those who won't pay will stream.

    Prime Haye v Bellew twice springs to mind

    He was trying to make it 6 months ago. Now he claims he won't even watch it.

    I doubt he watches anything other than his own shows. Appears to have no interest in the actual sport

    Exactly. Just fell into boxing the same way he could have gone into any of Barry’s other sports. Says he’s done at 50 anyway so only another 8 years of his crap.

    Earn is becoming very bitter imo. Very snappy, sensitive, touchy. All his years of goading everyone in the industry about how he's the best and how they all need him, and how he and his company are next level, might be coming back to slowly bite him in the bottom...

    Arrogancy is never a good thing.
