Not good when boxers think they don't need their promoters anymore and can go it alone. Just look at how rubbish a typical klitschko card has been. I think AJ sticks with Hearn unless he can get work in America which may not be an option. Even if AJ could fight in America, you don't just start off PPV unless maybe it's against Wilder. He would probably need to be really pushed over there to become PPV. It's just easier to stay home where he sells tickets and probably Sky Box Office too.
All I know this kid will never ever be put in a real test. Hearn won't take any chances at all, eventually idf title will be vacant down the line and they will line him up against a road sweeper for the vacant title. Its his cash cow and he will protect him all the way.
