    He's just generally very unlikable. Comes across as arrogant and annoying.

    We don't like arrogant little tossers that are rich and rub it in peoples faces.

    Plus he looks like a very slimy person that i don't think any man would trust near their GF.

    I don't think he understands boxing. His dad was the same. Moved into boxing without showing any respect. Fancy putting Joshua in for a belt before he had even done ten rounds then let him face Klitschko with just 18 fights... Joshua was over his head and a good prospect could easily have been ruined. He had to show a lot of stuff he didn't know about himself to get through that..it was a complete gamble that thankfully paid off. Barry Hearn guided Herbie Hide and the same thing went on with him. Thrown in with Riddick Bowe before he'd beaten a real contender or been the distance.

    With the false veneer of a polite gentleman?

    Because that would describe Joshua to me.

    Yeah Joshua just went to war to earn his money.

    Personally I like what Hearns has done to boxing in the UK, fights are huge events now and that's cos of him.

    As the people buying the fights, aren't we the hand that's feeding him?

    Are you the one putting good fights on from one month to the next not all shows are ppv are they
    Name another promoter that is putting on good shows after good shows a few stinkers here and there but when you have lived through the sky fwank days well anything is better I suppose

    Never knew the fans were in touch with Bronte alhaymon etc etc
    ***** promoters then just let the fans be the matchmakers that don't sound like a bad idea

    Imagine if Frank Warren and BoxNation signed Joshua. I wonder who he would be fighting, what sort of money he would be making and whether he'd be providing a platform for fellow fighters.

    As fans, we are where he gets his money from. He is simply doing what he thinks will generate the most money for himself.

    So how many ppv you paid for this year
    By the way you did a great job setting up Murray rosado last week
    Him self go tell josh klit and brook that whiled your at it
    He is masking more millionaire boxers than a certain promoter ever did
    One loaded all his eggs in to o e basket thrice whilst the other takes care of thee whole stable
    Obviouly he will have his favourites and higher earners but I dont hear to many complaining
    Look how many fighters jumped ship to m r and look at how many defected the other way it saint close mate not remotely
