Comments Thread For: Hearn Says Thurman, Not Eubank, Is Top Target for Benn: We've Got The Money

[greeneye99]

I don't know the relevance of this post. All it really says is Jermall wanted no part of Andrade. How can that be anything other than negative for Charlo? It's as if there's absolutely nothing to gain for Charlo. What is he doing in this sport anyway? I thought he wants to collect belts just like his twin. I don't even know why some fans are justifying this.

This particular Fanboy or Trolls agenda is different...
He just likes to post negativity on every Article containing anything related to Eddie Hearn/Matchroom/Dazn
I'm convinced he's not into posting about the actual fights or any Boxers
Just here to hate on Promoters and Tv platforms showcasing the fights
Smh

Why does he need to? He has the wbc title??? I’m really not following why you seem to feel pbc fighters must leave Haymon in th welsterwright dicision but Benn doesn’t have to leave matchroom. You’re not making any sense here mate

I'm not saying anyone has to leave anyone. And I never have. You are the one that said Benn needs to sign with PBC if he wants to fight their fighters. But nobody should have to leave anyone. PBC should learn to be a sport friendly organisation and make the best fights, or the most lucrative fights for their fighters. So for Jermall for instance, they should be open to trying to get him big unification fights regardless of who promotes the other champions. At WW they don't have to if they have all the top guys, admittedly. But if a big financial offer were made to a fighter nearing the latter stages of his career, then they should be open to that. But they prevent all this because of petty grudges. You don't have to like people, just be able to get the business done. Look at the Charlo brothers. They've gave Jermell everything, bent over backwards for him. Jermall? They've gave him nothing. All because of a petty grudge against Hearn. Mall will be a huge underachiever and he's not got the balls to do something about it. It's all very childish and it's the fans that lose.

Stop it mate, stop. Man you Hearn guys are just masters at running with his propaganda. Meanwhile he NEVER GOT A MEANINGFUL FIGHT WITH CANELO OR GGG. He didn’t even get a fight with sanders! Mate it’s not haymon’s job to prop up hearn’s failing business

And if you're Thurman you want the biggest purse possible. The hell with the network it's on. Epecially when you don't have an exclusive network deal as a fighter and you don't have a promoter

Yeah, see, that's your problem here - what you stated ain't true. You way wish it was the case, but it's not. Full stop.

Back when PBC was overpaying like crazy, Tim Bradley's contract with Top Rank was up. It made all the sense in the world to go over to PBC because there wasn't a lot left for Bradley to do at Top Rank, and PBC had all the exciting welterweights. There was a PPV payday or two waiting for him. But Top Rank had taken Bradley from fighting for Shaw for peanuts and got him his first million dollar payday, his PPV fights against Pac, Marquez, etc.

He resigned with Top Rank. He was happy with that relationship and wanted to keep on with it. No interest in crossing the street.

Mikey Garcia kept his options open and went where the money was always? Good for him. How did Mikey's career go after he left PBC and went to DAZN? Oh yeah, he fought some nobodies for fat checks and then retired.

Nobody fighting at PBC is interested in fighting on DAZN. Everybody's happy with their options, because Haymon has so many of the relevant American fighters.

Bradley made $7.5 mil in the first Pac fight. He won and you can just imagine how much more he made in the second fight being the A-side. Three Pac fights made him lots of money.

PBC's first televised fight was in Mar 2015. A year later the Pac/Bradley 3 took place (2016). He retired after the fight.

I don't see why Bradley would not have re-signed with TR when PBC wan't even existing at that time. And Bradley was making tons of money.

You probably need to revise your post and check the dates. Bradley's first fight with TR was in 2011. PBC's first fight was in 2015. So....

No, but it's his job to prop up Jermalls failing career, no?

If that line of thinking enables
you to take your mind away from the topic of this article then you run with that mate

You must not have much of a memory.

He resigned in 2016, after the third PAC fight. There was a lot of talk about him going to PBC and fighting the likes of Porter/Garcia/Thurman, and it was kind of shocking he didn’t, because there wasn’t anything left for him at Top Rank - he was on record that he wasn’t going to fight his friend Terrence Crawford.

Which turned out to be true - Bradley wasn’t interested in a proposed Vargas rematch or Postol and retired a year later.

He re-signed in 2016 for what? He just completed his 3rd fight with Pac that year and was contemplating on retirement due to health reasons. He was even talking about the damage inflicted on his body as far back as the Provodnikov fight.

I don't see the point of repeating he re-signed in 2016. He retired! You're blaming him for not signing with PBC when he's concerned about his health? He made more money at TR than what Thurman/Garcia/Porter made combined. Which makes it senseless to talk about how money grow on trees in the PBC garden. Thurman/Garcia/Porter were fighting on free tv and making $1 million each. Significantly less than what Bradley was making.
