It increasingly seems like Hearn is done with the US scene except if it's Canelo and now doing a lot of business and PR work for these human rights abusing dictatorships.
I always say none of these promoters are saints and I'm no PBC stan but I respect Haymon for not doing business with the Saudis/UAE/Qatar unlike Hearn and Bob. Principles gotta come before profit-maximization idc what anybody tells.

A world where principles always take a back seat to profit is a shytty world and humanity starts to find out more and more by the year, as we slowly cook ourselves because ppl can't take as much as in the last year, always more and more, eventually totalling the planet. I ventured off a bit but point stays, Hearn can :camby:for assisting to the sport washing of these fundamentalist dictatorships.

fukking promoters treating the sport like a cash grab.
If Elon Musk offered Hearn 50 mil to stage Joshua vs Whyte 2 on some asteroid colony this greedy fukk would do it.

I don't even mind them Saudi/Billionaire Supervillain nikkas etc... getting a decent fight every now and then, but the pandering every super fight to them fukks is ridiculous.

Zepeda/Prograis will prolly break illegal stream records cuz nobody trying to pay for that shyt, but everybody wants to see it.

the bolded is jokes :dead: and #facts

everything is a gotdamn PPV these days

PBC - PPV level fights on network TV they said' now its network TV level fights on PPV
TR - Had the nerve to put Fury vs Whyte on American TV PPV with a god awful undercard
DAZN - Supposed to offer fights on a low monthly subscription that suppose to kill PPV; deviated from the model big time this year to put nonsense like Canelo vs Bivol (US) or Garcia vs Tagoe (Canada) or (in UK) KSI/Youtubers/Jobbers and Benn vs Eubank on PPV

Now we have Triller pt.2 with MarvNation taking a perfectly good network TV fight and making it a PPV no one wants to buy for good fukking reason

thats true but then i look back at dude going life and death with jesse hart in both fights and that doubt kicks in :francis:

I think he a different fighter now.

He punches with way more intent to hurt. I lowkey think he was phoning it in during a lot of those TR fights. Then I remember the buzz among the press during that Jake Paul Andrade superbowl card that Zurdo met with Hearn in some hotel to try to get him over to Dazn.

but yes, he lowkey ruined his image during those Hart fights. My goodness those were struggle.
