    Why non-PPV?

    I could argue that Haymon is struggling to sell his fighters as PPV then right?

    If Spence was British, he'd be Brook 2.0, and would be a PPV fighter....

    He’s also brought Linares over here to the UK which has to be a good thing,Crolla was big in his hometown and got put in his place by Linares.
    Also Wlad v AJ was one of the best fights we’ve seen in years period,Paulie M said the atmosphere for that fight in the build up and on the day would take some beating and I’d have to agree as that was a genuine 50/50 fight.
    Haymon fighters are just too inactive as so many fight only once a year.

    Non-PPV because you can't compare brook or AJ to Mayweather. The PPVs Haymon has put on the past 10 years Hearn look likea total mug.

    Haymon had been paying fighters millions to fight on non-PPV shows in sometimes very competitive fights. His fighters are known all around the world. Hearn pays no-name domestic fighters bugger all to fight nobodies and you're saying one is awful and the other is the Messiah of boxing.

    Hearn is just another promoter. He's nowhere near the top of the game right now and he's done nothing in my mind to outshine what Warren did with Sky before him. Hatton and Nas were global stars. Massive names. Much bigger than AJ. Are you now gonna tell me Frank Warren was great for boxing and a saviour to all boxing fans at the time?

    Hearn is a bigger hype job than any fighter right now.
