This card, Paul Smith and other grumblings

No

And this is a topic you continue to post on yet do not understand the basic premise that boxing is a business first, and promoters and fighters have to make money to keep going.

Under Frank and the others; namely Hatton, Maloney, Hennesey and so on, this was nit happening, fighters were not fighting and everybody was frustrated. We as fans need to commend Eddie Hearn and Match Room for rescuing what was a pretty dire looking domestic scene, not criticise him.

Last nights card was about one man by and large and that was Tony Bellew, the undercard was always a stocking filler from the word go, Eddie and MR never promoted this any other way. The main event delivered IMO, I thought it was a sensational fight, Bellew stepped up to 200lbs and fought a tough guy who's very experienced. As a boxing fan, who watches this free on Sky Sports 2 when there's **** all else to watch, I have to confess I'm happy.

Understand the budget of a boxing show before lashing out silly and uneducated accusations about Match Room.

 

Welcome to the UK boxing scene :good

Thats the status quo mate and has been for some time

 

:good

 

What about people who bought tickets before the pull outs and can get a refund on their tickets?

 

Case of **** happens really.

Given the state of the ****** cards in recent times it's quite childish to only blame Hearn.

 

put 1 fight on then....20 quid any ticket for 1 hour

i would rather go a local gym and put 50 quid in their pot to watch a spar than 9/10 fights matchroom has been putting on

and i am a matchroom/hearn fan

 

I don't think Ive ever seen a spar as good as that, that is a sensational exaggeration :good well done

 

Agree... The dark days pre Matchroom Sky monopoly were so much worse and nigh on impossible to rescue this card with all the drop outs. Eddie just had to hope one of the undercard fights would be a barn stormer to paper over the cracks

 

That card last night was worse than anything FW has put on in a long time, it was way worse than that crap card with Fury and Chisora, yeah Frank puts on some crap cards but why when we discuss Hearn do you always bring up FW, That was a awful **** poor card from Eddie nothing to do with other promoters.

 

If ****** was putting on more cards you'd have a point. He puts on very few and they are still ****ing **** for the most part.

 

You obviously never watched the other weeks copperbox bill with Bradley Skeete and the likes then the flabby furys it was woeful

 

There's just no reasoning with you when it comes to Hearn and Matchroom.

I was at the Matchroom show in Glasgow the other week and it was the worse show iv'e ever attended and i have been to some bad ones before under Frank ******, Maloney and Hayemaker.

You constantly talk about Hearn been 'the savior of British boxing' while Frank, Maloney, Hatton and Hennessey are useless when that is simply not true.
It's only since Hearn got the Sky monopoly that other promoters struggled to get their fighters out because they didn't have TV because Sky put their eggs into one basket with Matchroom.
So you're the one with the uneducated accusations, especially not so long ago you said "no one at Sky sports knows who Barry Hearn is" It is because of Barry that Eddie landed the Monopoly.

I notice time and time again you come on here accusing people of having a 'hate campaign against Eddie Hearn' which is totally wrong because it's the quality of his boxing shows which people don't like.
People are spending their hard earned cash going to these shows and watching home on Sky (which isn't free by the way) only to be left totally disappointed.
So, next time read the posts before you get you're claws out you stupid ***** :-(

 

I watched it the entire bill, It was **** but not as bad as last night, Skeete fight was as boring as Fielding Adamu, Fury is always entertaining and at least it had several KD's and the Chisora fight was ok considering he was fighting KJ, The matchroom show on Saturday was the worst i have seen for a very long time i criticised that Copporbox bill heavily like everyone else but last Saturday took the ****.

 

"Sky Sports don't know who Barry Hearn is"?

I challenge you now to find that post . . . . . . !!

Match Room and Eddie Hearn presented themselves as the best viable option for Sky Sports to do business with. You dont understand business so there's no point going over old ground.

Eddie and Match room are nothing more than an outsourced service provider to Sky Sports, thats good business on Sky's behalf and suits Eddie fine.

Out with the old in with the new, Maloney, Frank & the remainder are the old and Eddie Hearn and Matchroom are the new. Eddie is the closest thing we have in British Boxing to Dana White in the UFC, he's transparent, honest and gets his fighters out. Unlike his competition who are all vastly becoming non-competitive :good

 

P.S.

My opinion of you from your posting content is that you are a part time boxing fan with limited knowledge of the sport who aspires to be a more educated one.

Keep going your a way off yet
