Eddie Hearn and Frampton .....

Anybody else noticed how a hate-Hearn agenda seems to have enveloped 606 since Mcguigan fell out with Eddie and took Frampton ???

For me falling out with the odious, arrogant mcguigan is another reason I like Eddie Hearn...........

Would GGG v Macklin........Martinez-Barker, Martinez-Macklin happened under Warren...........Nope...........Cleverly had to beg for Kovo....

Let's get real Hearn is better for the fan than Warren............

You used to criticise Hearn all the time haha. Telling people you didn't trust him and just to wait until he started delivering nonsense fights.

Come on Truss, if you wanted to pick a fight with Strongy you could have done better than this.

BTW personally I have been a skeptic since Brook struggled with Jones and McCloskey robbed Prescott....that was waaaaaay before Frampton even signed for him....I think.

I agree he is better than Warren for big fights. But in the last year or two his so called eliminators that never actually deliver a title fight are a bit of a rip off. So can no longer listen to him regarding "some" things. But again I agree that he is putting on more good shows than bad which is good.

I don't dislike him to the extreme like some...but when it comes to Burns, Brook and this PPV show in a couple of weeks, his explanations are just fake and obviously fake.

Can't separate them both have self interests at the top of their agenda , Hearn has the more attractive stable at the moment , however Warren isn't worried to sacrifice some of he's fighters to the slaughter , Leushing v Tito, Jennings v Cotto etc....

Hearns cards have been awful recently one sided dross, we need rival promoters but who see business. They need to get Frampton v Quigg ASAP before one of the loses , strike what the irons hotter than luke warm.

Cheers Rodders

I don't particularly like him...........The mcguigan bit was sarcasm.......

I don't want an argument with the village-606 idiot either..

Just think he is better for the sport than warren..........

and that all this negative stuff happened after Frampton.

Warren's lost ambitious fighters left, right and centre.........

Add Alexander-Purdy and more Hearns fighters have been sacrificed in two years than warren's in twenty..

Way I look at it no promoter is ever going to do things that make us fans 100% happy because some things are just not smart business sense and let’s not kid ourselves here they enter the game to make money, not out of some sense of altruism. For me I am still pretty much a glass is half full guy when it comes to Eddie. Does a lot of things I like such as keeping the new pros in action every other week rather than every other month and is willing to send his guys overseas if opportunities arrive.

Sticking Jennings in with Cotto isn't a big deal, he was a domestic level fighter who only had one shot at the big time, he wasn't a money maker so it was an easy option. Sticking a cash cow in a risky fight is a different ball game, you then have something to lose in the long term. Putting Cleverley in with Kovalev was risky, putting Froch in with Bute was risky but Hearn sticking Purdy in with Alexander was not.

My problem with Hearn is he wants a monopoly on boxing and he has spoofed a lot in what has been a carefully orchestrated media PR campaign where he has sold a vision I believe he cannot deliver.

Hearn also seems to be inexperienced evidenced by his fighters being stripped of their belts. Is Burns next?

The PPV thing is also a bug bear with me. I don't have a problem paying to see the very best fight or if there are good names in competitive fights on a stacked card. Eddie has done a fair bit of bluffing around PPV but as I see it is floundering a bit with Froch v Groves.


Warren had it too easy for too long and is now struggling badly. It's a big challenge for him to give Matchroom a run for their money. There are interesting times ahead.


What I think nobody wants to see is Warren and Hearn fighters being kept apart ala Golden boy and Top Rank. The boxing scene in Britain isn't big enough to support this kind of split.


I feel Hearn has really hurt Warren and I wonder if the blood letting will continue?

You're hardly averse to wearing the cone shaped pointy hat.

i find it funny that he was constantly calling out quigg and singing frampton's praises.
now frampton left, he's got quigg and the tables turn 180.

boxing is a funny old game.
