Stevieda Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Sounds good, but will you get your money back when the fight doesn't happen?^^^ Eddie Hearn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is beyond delusional. I last seen him on the Burns/Mitchell undercard 6 years ago and he was shot to bits. I'm pretty sure he is not getting his license back so plans for world domination seem premature. Let's be honest he's a horrible c**t anyway. In other news it would appear Uncle Eddie has signed up Canelo for a multi fight deal on the DAZN platform. That's some coup our Uncle and I would imagine will make the mind up for other big names to move to DAZN. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAGer Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 11 hours ago, Boostin' Kev said: Surely not. Apparently a 10 fight deal with a minimum of $365million guaranteed (more dependent on the scale of event and opponent). Brilliant signing and it should lead to more following. From our point of view, hopefully it leads to a few of his fights being on regular Sky Sports at least. But I'd imagine if they get any decent opponents lined up for him it'll be a Box Office event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Been reading about it, looks like it's DAZN puting up the cash for this and nothing to do with Matchroom contractually. Won't do Hearn any harm though with his connection with DAZN. Pretty mental nonetheless though would have expected Showtime to have been a stick on to get his fights through PPV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Aye it would appear Hearn has had nothing to actually do with the Canelo deal but will certainly be a big bonus for Hearn in attracting top names to now sign for him to perform on DAZN. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickoverayard Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Its a massive coup regardless who was behind in. The dazn platform will skyrocket now.... this may sound bad but it had to take a massive ethnic name like a Canelo who has a massive fan base, the whole of Mexico get behind him and going for $100 per ppv to $10 per subscription this will do great business. We have AJ and Canelo fighting on dazn along with WBSS who will be next? I hope garcia, davis, spence jr and the Charlo's follow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Garcia is a certainty and hopefully the rest go and get boxing regularly. The inactivity of some of the quality fighters over there is scandalous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickoverayard Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Agreed they fight once a year cant remember thurmans last fight. Say what you want about eddie but one thing he does is put in the graft and doesrigjt quailty fights. With usyk being on-board you think loma will come along? See a mega fight with him and Garcia on the cards if they both sign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Interesting times just now with HBO finally ending their walk away from the sport and DAZN getting Alvarez after chasing the likes of Broner and the Charlos. Not easy to be optimistic about fights getting made though, can see this just being another roadblock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Pacquaio to fight Broner in January. Hopefully Pacquiao can unleash a beating that puts Broner into retirement. Broner has been ordered by the WBC to fight Linares, with the winner being mandatory to Garcia, but obviously fancies the payday more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Broner has 3 wins in the last 3 years. One a SD over Granados which he could have lost, and the other two against Khabib and Theopane. The guy is irrelevant as far as I’m concerned but he’ll keep getting opportunities as long he wants them sadly.I mean.... In boxing terms he is irrelevant, but no can ever take away from us what Maidana did to him. For as long as people discuss favourite or most hilarious moments, that entire match will always be relevant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean but when do these kind of things ever end up working for us as fans? PBC looked promising for a while but didn't really end up that way although it's still the best right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Assuming it’s a routine win for tommy coyle tonight? Other boys record doesn’t look that impressive. Quite like coyle, seems a good type. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
