    Suspect Russia since he’s had a lot of them on his shows or probably Germany since it is a big boxing country.

    I'm going to guess Germany and/or Italy.

    Hearn must hate his Missus or something...the geezer doesn’t appear to spend any of his time at home.

    Wish him well in his new venture.

    Underwhelming. The Sauerlands pretty much have Germany locked down and Italian boxing isn’t up to much.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if he works with the Sauerlands. As he seems to have a good relationship with them and their focus is on wbss

    Lets speculate for a minute. He's clearly got deals with a German and an Italian broadcaster. It appears the shows will be on Friday nights. Saulerland don't have a tv deal anymore so he's going to use some of their fighters I imagine, but they don't seem to have much left. As was said earlier Italian boxing is pretty dead. As these have got to be arena size shows, will he be once again using his British stable of fighters to fill holes in the cards. If yes, it's getting very very thin. It's fascinating mind, with the potential to see him going down as , perhaps, the most innovative promoter in boxing history. Surely, the workload will catch up with him in the end.

    He's made Franks business look like Steptoe and son in comparison to Matchroom.

    If they were both a soap, Eh Day is Eastenders and Frank heading for the same fate as Brookside ambling along with the odd decent script watched by reducing viewers by the year.

    Well, love him or hate him, you can't accuse Eddie of not trying but yeah, Italy is a very odd choice. Can see why he'd try and get into Germany and he does get on very well with the Sauerlands. More opportunities for British fighters fighting abroad I guess.

    They need more opportunities at home. I don’t think Eddie nor Frank are putting on enough shows lately.

    Probably to make up the DAZN numbers he needs to hit. Doubt these cards will be overwhelming.
