    Agreed with kapparino, and warrens card is quite an embarrassment

    the Simeon fight was actually a good fight tbf, got lost a bit amongst the AJ/Wlad hysteria. But under Roach, he's been a bit more attacking but also shipping a lot more shots and Valdez has also looked vulnerable a couple of times recently which makes it seem a really exciting fight imo

    Frank kicks off the year this weekend with Spence vs Peterson.

    Also on that card is -
    Easter vs Fortuna
    Kownacki vs Netu
    Sergiy Derevyanchenko vs Dashon Johnson.

    He follows up next week with Jorge Linares vs Gesta.

    Also on that card is -
    Lucas Matthysse vs Kiram

    The week after that is the Yarde and Dubois card which will be worth watching even if the opponents aren't great.

    Nothing for March , but hes back April with Frampton vs Donaire. That card will probably have another Yarde action packed fight on it.

    So you take away Joshua and there's nothing in it.

    I am not a Brit but to me Eddie Hearn has been the best for some years...

    To be expected from Oscars no 1 fan.
    Certainly Hearn is carrying on from a great 2017 and giving us some great fights,is it any wonder guys like Danny Jacobs who were stuck with their one fight a year would want to sign with Hearn,not every fight has to be a big title fight does it?just seems that stay busy fights,showcase fights are frowned upon for some reason and yet these same clowns never said nish when Ward was having his three tune ups.
    Al Haymon is responsible for guys like Thurman who only fights once a year.
    Eddie Hearn gets the plaudits cause he’s delivering good cards and to a lesser extent so has Warren and Kalle with the two tournaments going on is delivering some mega fights like Groves v Eubank,Gassiev v Dorticos ect.

    All of Gallagher guys do,plod forward and take shots is why they get found out on the big stage,his advice to Quigg against Frampton was awful and Quigg not being the sharpest tool in the shed just believed him lol

    Yep in BJS he’s got a potential Middleweight champ who could take the lot imo.
    Warren knows his stuff and knows how to bring on fighters though in BJS and Furey he had his work cut out,if he can get Furey Enjoying the sport like Saunders then he can be up there with Hearn for sure

    Jacobs is having his first fight of the year in April ffs half the year will be over, he actually had his first fight in March or Feb last year? So far Eddie is all talk.

    April is like 6 months after his last fight with that prospect nobody ever heard of

    What good cards did Frank put on because he isn't part of WBSS lol

    Whoever Jeff Horns promoter is, that guy has balls to let him face Crawford and give the fans what they want.

    Frank Warren is giving us the Untouchables card, then Gassiev-Dorticos, followed up by Joshua-Parker and Canelo-GGG.
    That man is incredible!
