    Hearn also stated Bellew and Usyk sold $3m in 5 minutes.

    Can nobody see that Hearn would've promoted this fight way better?

    Brendan Schaub was the perfect example of someone completely out of touch with the sport.

    Claiming "Fury is getting the backing of UK fans because Joshua is a coward".



    Genius promotion that.

    How do we get the largest group of HW fans on the planet to view this fight? Let's criticize them.



    Promoting this fight as the 'Winner gets Joshua' instantly makes it a much bigger fight.

    They're just cutting off their nose to spite their face though.

    Schaub came out with some nonsense like "The UK fans appear to be leaving Joshua and backing you".


    I know boxing has fallen down the pecking order in the US, but I didn't realise it had reached the stage where it considers a spot on a Carl Frampton undercard to be worthy of headlining a PPV in the US......

    But then again, I guess Spike O'Sullivan just got a spot on US PPV.

    It's gotten to the point where bold face lies can be claimed as fact, because one side screams it so loud the other side can't be heard. Clearly a moronic statement from Schaub, but most US casuals who watch wont bother looking into this and take it as face value which Schaub & Showtime know.

    He just seems like a yes man.

    Showtime needs a troll like Carl Froch, who whilst very annoying 99% of the time, always takes swipes at Hearn and blames him for everything.

    HBO went too far the other way though, with RJJ and Lampley arguing like an old married couple at every opportunity.

    So what? Carl Froch sold 80,000 tickets to Wembley in 15 seconds.

    UFC is going to literally blow boxing out the water this weekend in terms of PPV, As for McGregor bit of a toady imo but this guy i reckon will make more dough than any past boxing star, Irish Whiskey brand is so simple an idea but pure genius at the same time.

    Money Mayweather my arse !

    Whats the point of blowing out Boxing if UFC can't pay their fighters decently?

    I could not believe my eyes when of all people they got Brenda Slob in as a respected annalist for the beginning of that LA one. Brenda Slob???? They may as well of invited the LBDC down to share their impartial views.
