Sounds like Crolla wanted him pulled out well before the 11th. Gallagher is a complete wanker who puts his own ego above the safety of his fighter, this isn't the first time he's allowed a fighter to take far too much punishment.


Just listened to that yesterday funnily enough. Did feel sorry for him when he was going on about how badly his daughter has suffered due to the abuse his family get from online trolls.

Aye, he does come across as a bit of a bell mind.

I don’t think anyone would’ve complained if it was stopped 4 or 5 rounds earlier.

Would have liked to have seen Kowkncaki v Andy Ruiz, noticed it was being talked about had he won, interesting fight.

Ruiz is aiming for 2 stone weight loss before his next fight. His attitude and condition for the AJ rematch was one of the most disappointing things I've seen in recent years.

Dont think any of them are trustworthy and Arums gonna dismiss it ( and Warren will back that up ) while Bob tries to get people to believe that Pulev has a chance of knocking out Joshua

Exactly this. Single-ing Hearn out for talking shite is a bit rich in the boxing game :lol:

They’re all at it. Promoters are total bullshitters.

I actually like Hearn though and think he gets some unfair stick.

Think theres an element of jealousy from Warren and Arum about Hearn, Hearns brought boxing back from where it was to be bigger than ever, he’s used and benefitted from Joshua and set up so much with matchroom and sky and Warren and Arum have to use Franks sayings ‘ in his slipstream’

bullsh!t and bias from the lot but i prefer to listen to Hearn that Arums wandering, waning mind or Warrens green envy n hope that Fury and Dubois can save his skin

Aye, agreed.

I really enjoy any stuff Hearn does with IFL and can listen to him talk boxing all day.

Hearn is a bit of a tosser, but he doesn't have a reputation for promising now and worrying about actually paying later.

Listened to an interview with Darren Barker a while back and he mentioned how immediately after his first fight with Matchroom he asked Eddie how long it would take for him to receive his purse, he was told Monday morning and assumed Hearn was bullshitting him as the likes of Hennessy and Warren were well known for taking an age to pay their fighters but couldn't believe it when it was in his bank on the Monday.

Don't think there's been a single accusation levelled against Hearn on that front which is a rarity amongst major promoters.

I enjoy ifl. Kurgan is a bit clicky with hearn like. But then he gives him a lot of content from his shows.

I’d love to read a frank warren autobiography....
Love or hate he will have some amazing stories.

Have you seen how clicky he is with Dillian?

No. But know dillians management team won’t let Steve bunce have access to him.

I know for a fact Hearn makes sure he can see funds in an escrow account before selling fighters a dream pay wise

Met him at a launch party, seemed a decent guy to me, but he had paid for all the beer :lol:
Also had to look up to him which I don't do too much at over 6ft myself.

I think to really dislike him you've probably got to be a fairly keen follower of boxing and even then, it depends on your stance on certain things I suppose. Undoubtedly been good for the sport all things considered and only what, 40?
