Big Boxing Thread

Is it just me that wonders about the credentials of fighter managed by the Hearns who boasts an "unbeaten" record which includes two draws?

I don't give any Hearn fighters credit, unless Bazza or McG have said they're good

The sky end of round highlights seem to consist exclusively of hearns' man landing punches.

It begs the question as to how bad Sky Sports would have to get before you cancel your subscription?

The boxing could not exist and I would still pay for sky sports.  My biting point for the channel a month is probably £300 a month. I am obviously in the minority and watch more of that than most people do hours at work.  For the marginal customers I totally get your point.

That was the best fight tonight.

Our Sky is going very soon.

We've only got a basic package, and it's about £60 a month.

Just got some building going on, but will be sorting out the new box once it's done.

Agreed I was watching a8 races at crayford on the net thinking why am I just not watching this on the TV this boxing is wank.  Eddie Hearn has an even smugger face than his dad if that is possible.  Every time I look at Hearn Jnr I feel like he is stealing a living 90% of the time with what he actually produces for sky on a bog standard night.

Chris Eubank Jr is the most bog standard twat i have sen in my life.

Unless i am massively mistaken, I am SURE I heard his dad (why on earth is he insisting on being called "English" btw???) calling out Golovkin recently. Please make this so we can end this nonsense.

On the subject of Hearn, he DOES have 3 of the hottest prospects in world boxing in Brook, Joshua and Campbell to be fair to him, and he is a promoter, is he meant to not promote them?

Haha, I actually like Eddie, and you can't knock him for being good at what he does.

You guys aren't the average joe public, so know that he's having it right off.

They're just happy enough seeing people get schooled, with the odd decent fight thrown in.

You can admire a thief's ingenuity but he's still a thief.

Given the level of interest created by him the signing of Eubank Jr will prove to be a masterstroke. Hopefully the market thinks Jr is bog average and I get a good few bets out of him.

[McGlashan]

Somebodies asking for £2.9k on Terrence Crawford by Dec on Betfair and the size of bet sticks out like a sore thumb.

6/4 is available with highstreet firms and has been all week long. No strong opinion on this fight myself.

he is meant to promote them but none of them are at the level you speak about,  you sound like his brother!!!!


trying to imagine brook selling out vegas.  I can just about imagine AJ doing it in 3 years.  But brook really?  As for Campbell do me a favour.

Try selling out Sheffield first. If people cared about Kell they'd be asking what really happened when he got stabbed.

Crawford drops him at he end of round 1. Dude's passing the eye test with flying colours.

[Bazzaboy]

The cards served up this year by Hearn have been horrific. He has had one, maybe two decent cards all year.  A look on boxing forums shows the general feeling towards him. I'd be interested to see what numbers he has done this year with regards to viewing figures.
