Hearn is a star in his own mind. It is evident in every interview he does. He has even spoken about 'the legacy he wants to leave,' like he is some kind of champion. Hearn conveniently forgets that when the bell rings he is sitting in the crowd.
Hearn isn’t getting to play the moral high ground on this one. He got Eubank to boil himself down to a skeleton and wanted to sneak a Roided up Benn into the ring against him to take his head off. There is stacking the chips in your favour and then there is just being immoral.
Interviewers need to ask him about his fake amateur record. He claims to be 4-0 as an amateur boxer, but despite being the son of a boxing promoter, no footage or records exist of him ever having a fight.
This. Reminds me of when someone asked Lamar Dean Povetkin Whyte if he's ever boxed and he skittered around the answer so much, kept saying "I've a wrestling background". Pretenders
Hearn is so rattled by Eubank because he knows he got caught lying and cheating with the failed drug tests and is banged to rights. Not only was what he tried to do dishonest, it was dangerous and the whole world saw it. He also says he plans to sue Eubank, and while I'm no legal expert, I'm pretty sure that's hard to do when everything that person said is true.
Im sure id heard Eddie Hearn talking about being useless as a boxer and that he got beat in his first fight
He even starts saying at the 1.57 mark of this interview "I knew he wasn't going to let me talk" but he catches himself. He just used Hattons death in a very scummy way I think. Classic Hearn. This content is protected
Not Hearn's biggest fan at all about himself, promote your fighters not yourself. He makes every press conference about being the voice at the table, Jr certainly gets under his skin. Happy to throw verbal cheap shots, but when returned with interest he always talks about getting lawyers involved. Done well for himself off the empire his father built but he's very much got a spoilt rich kid attitude.
Hearn is very smart here. The build up to the last fight was all about the failed tests and rehydration clause. Now all the focus has shifted and has anybody even mentioned Benn ot these stupid clauses? Hearn is a master manipulator.
