    Surprised, but its a good move for Hughie to move away from mick.

    Loving the potential fights against other Match Room HWs in AJ, Whyte, Usyk, Parker, Hunter, Hrgovic, Gassiev, Bakole, Kuzmin, Zhang and Price.

    Hughie signs with "that cockroach Eddie Hearn" ??

    I said Hughie would be much better off with Matchroom. Lots of potential fights there.

    Hearn's heavyweight stable is not bad but looks a bit touch-and-go at the top level lately. But Hughie's currently a little below the top level, so that's fine for him.

    As a Hughie supporter this is disappointing. Mick reportedly re-mortgaged his house to put the Parker fight on.

    Both Big Peter Fury and Hughie were furious in the build up to the Parker fight because Hearn tried to hijack Parker for AJ. Big Peter Fury branded Hearn a “cocksucker” for what he tried to do.

    I’m disappointed for Mick tbh and I know money talks but I am dismayed that they’ve made a deal with Hearn.

    Hearn said a Heavyweight or two are on that card. My guess is Hughie and Povetkin

    lmao, Hearn will go from having AJ and Whyte as his main British heavyweights to having Hughie and Price.

    Hearn spent the whole of the last 12 months slating Tyson for being a “boring” fighter and has proceeded to sign his less talented, less famous and far less exciting in the ring cousin.

    Another one for the compendium.
