Say what you like about Eddie, he is the biggest promoter in the uk by far, he backs up his claims, he is very honest, isn't bitter and threatens to sue people every five minutes.
I believe he debunked warren and Hennessy pretty thoroughly in this interview.
+Cornwall1888 He is the biggest because of a terrible contract for british boxing
+Cornwall1888 A Hearn, honest? Haha. Yeah, and so is Sepp Blatter.
***** tell us 3 lies from the interview
Cornwall1888 The coffee mug is actually his, he never paid for that sofa, & the hair on his head is transplanted bum fluff.
he is but he is NOT honest lmfao id vote him prime minister he biggest best liar there is
That is actually a bloody good interview. Even if you're not a boxing fan, few lessons of how to conduct yourself in business right there.
I love Hearn. Young, fresh, to the point and outright professional. He is the biggest promoter in the UK doing our boxers proud and so instrumental in putting British boxing on the map.
Give the guy a break, he provides great cards for us all to stream for free
Gg
+The Pugilist Specialist i pay gladly for ppv and often pay an extra fiver in the way of a tip.
+Schmichael Owen who watches tv in 2015?
its ANTIQUATED! and old
Yes stopstream all the way
+peckerdecker its more stable than streaming and if you have sky sports you're more likely to watch tv.
Eddie Hearn shut everyone up in this interview 😂😂 Say what you want but this man is good for British boxing.
once again, and I will keep saying it, get them all in a room, and interview them together....
+PredatorBites UK Good comment mate just like they do with the middleweights the gloves are off and shows like that. I think it would be a good show.
+fredinabun ; that won't happen because Eddie will want it on sky Warren will on boxnation hennesy on c5 mcquigan on itv
they can meet in a neutral place and kug can do the questions
Warren would never do it !! He's jealous to death of matchroom and he wishes box nation was as big as sky but it isn't it's crap !
+Simon Devine BoxNation is a decent channel but the roster of fighters just isn't good enough. Last year Eubank Jr, Fury and Frampton were on the channel. Now even Chisora has gone. I would love BN to succeed but they are in desperate need of British boxers
Eddie Hearn vs Frank Warren 2016 make it happen!! (head to head debate)
Live and exclusive on IFL tv
+anUntouchable hearn would wipe the floor with him
+iAmPrinceHD - in HD!
+iAmPrinceHD should be on boxnation
+anUntouchable Would probably be PPV though
if it wasn't for matchroom we would have nothing to talk about..matchroom is running the show, and it is getting bigger by the day!
+Lloyd Watters Your way off with that comment by the way. First off i want to say i like matchroom so im no hater but you only think that because you get to watch matchroom fighters on sky. Lets say sky worked with all promoters and lets say that all British fighters fought on sky sports matchroom wouldn't be as big as they are so they wouldn't have all the fighters they have and you would see a lot other boxers on a daily basis because matchroom get to raise a boxers profile because they have the outlet but if every fighter had that same outlet then they profiles would be just as high as Joshua and Crolla and Quigg and all the other well known matchroom fighters so matchroom is not the bee all and end all and boxing would still be in good shape without them and as i say maybe British boxing would be better if sky worked with all promoters.
gotta LOL at casuals like you
+fredinabun ; yes that's why I think it's running the show because they have a partnership with sky..i watched frank warrens show and I didn't think it was great maybe because the fighters have low profiles I don't know..I agree all promoters should work with sky! but the man himself will have a say in that lol.
Lloyd Watters i totally agree with you that when you watch other shows with British fighters on it don't seem as good because we don't know them much.
That long winded comment by fredinabun turned out to bre bullshite then eh
Eddie Hearn is such a good promoter and is doing an amazing job with boxing. How can people slag him off! Keep up the good work Eddie!
That exclusive deal was very clever for Matchroom to acquire. Best promoters in the UK.
Love these insights into the business comings and goings. More please....
Fuck me Eddie has robbed K2 and Henessey lmfao.
He taxed them correct lol
Eddie got the game by the balls but him being so humble is winding up the promoters even more. Y don't they just wrk with the man. Everyone will make "carrot". Fucking egos
Kuggz ain’t putting out interviews like this anymore
the fact that eddie was on the table at the vlad fury press conference was abit desperate
I get the impression he doesn't want to work with the Eubanks (probably because of SNR) but can't help see the pound signs that come with junior's career
+Ben Lowe I can't see bjs giving Eubanks the rematch anytime soon. He says let Eubank go the WBA route but I feel that bjs thinks it's too risky for little reward. Bills joe wants the big money fights
+Lee Dobson Must be a nightmare dealing with the Eubanks
+Ben Lowe his best hope is that in the future Al Haymon comes calling
But he is not going to be able to use his name in the states, this is where he is well known and the Eubank brand is strong and they are burning all their bridges, Boxnation and Matchroom in less than a year
+Ben Lowe yep there going to be working with box nation and al haymon
Thanks to IFLTV for interviews like these. These kinds of interview are fantastic. Nice to know what goes on behind the scenes.
Watched all of that : ) thank you very interesting. How good would it to have Hern and Warren in the same room having an interview. Could you make it happen boys???
Very insightful, I really enjoyed this
really like Kugsns interviews and what he does covering boxing on line.seems to have really good relationships with everyone in the game which brings the best out of them interview wise.....great work
sorry....meant to say Kugan
Carl Stanley ....yeah your right I love he's work also..#topman kugan
Kugs is really developing the art of shit stirring and taking it new levels....don't get me wrong, I'm loving it, just hope he doesn't disengage those he is interviewing
why does eddie get a lot of hate. He is on top of british boxing. Yes he does chat shit sometimes but he does deliver most of the time.
You have answered your own question, because he chats shit!
+Luis Carlos Hernandez He delivers utter shit in the main
+Luis Carlos Hernandez what does mr hearn deliver? PIZZA?
this man wants to charge LOTS of money for CRAPPY tacky boxing mis matches
this why boxing has been DEAD for 16 years- people and poltiics of likes of mr hearn
+Luis Carlos Hernandez Because he says things like "I think Brook beats Mayeather Jr." and then manages to hold a straight face after saying it. lol. I think he is great, he is like Ricky Gervais in "The office" and these interviews are like an episode
+Luis Carlos Hernandez Because him having an "exclusive deal" with sky, is utter bollocks. It's ruining the boxing scene in the UK, there are so many people who don't want to work with Eddie... He's a rat and spews more bile than a bulimic alcoholic on chemotherapy.
Really great interview. Learned a lot about the boxing game from this!
Warren always mentions Matchroom, Eddie only mentions Warren hen they have accused him of something
What a shit business Boxing is.
one split here, another split there, yet another split over there....this is why Tyson lost all his millions
A Ali exactly mate. Everyone has their sticky fingers in the pie.
Lol when Eddie talked about the planes, I was thinking of his used cars salesman thing, then he giggled and mentioned it lol
Eddie's card at the O2 was fantatich! Thanks ifilm for the footage.
great interview, very interesting
Interesting interview!!!! Thank you IFL for this insight, i want Eddie Hernes job.
Great interview!!!
Great interview
A saviour to British Boxing!!! Well done Eddie Hearn!!!!!
can we not have 2 mics kugi ?
Kugan why do you disable comments on certain videos, they're usually the good ones as well?
Eddie is very patient. I don't really care about contract details like this - I just wanna see good fights.
+Chris McFarlane Easy be patient when you have Sky backing you. Although fair play to Eddie. He could sell a gift wrapped Turd to some British Boxing fans.
+Chris McFarlane he is also patient because he knows the Eubanks need money, the Dad is using his son's career to pay off his debts, that is why there is always an issue over money, because the Dad wants to get paid
like the interviews usually but how many times does the question have to be rephrased?
I think the Eubanks are just scared of the fights that Eubank Jnr will be expected to take in the future. That's why they are retracing their steps by going back to Blackwell for the British title. Whereas, if he remained with Matchroom, he would be expected to take a fight against Daniel Jacobs.
Excellent interview.
This 50min video got uploaded 7 minutes ago yet it's got 2 dislikes already. How does someone dislike a video they haven't even watched?
obviously hate Eddie
We dislike conmen like Eddie Hearn
+*unknown* i get that totally and i'm no fan of eddie hearn but thanks to IFL we get to see things like this interview that we wouldn't see otherwise. I want to see these interviews as it add's another perspective to things, may not like the person being interviewed but have to appreciate IFL's work
jealousy
+Lee Dobson great words, props
So Sky and Eddie Hearn initially said no to the Fury Klitschko Nov 28th date because it was too close to Joshua's British title fight. Thats what Eddie just said. Then they had a rethink. Or were forced to have a rethink. That's a serious clash of interests. Bottom line - unified HW title fights shouldn't get delayed because of British title fights. In the end sense prevailed. But we obviously need another prominant PPV platform to help avoid ridiculous situations like this.
That's a prime example of why this exclusivity is a bad thing. it will be interesting to see what happens with the re-match. Will it be in the U.K on a matchroom card?
what was this tweet??
Awesome interview
Like them or Loathe them Matchroom has brought boxing back to the big time in the UK, long may it continue!
Quite enjoy reverting back to these interviews. Although some of the specific fights etc he's mentioned never came to fruition, in a broader sense, he's delivered exactly what he said he would, and plenty more.
Interesting to see what happens in the next 12 months though in terms of his SKY contract, as surely DZNE will be looking at entering the UK market soon. And I would happily pay 100 quid a year for all of that boxing content, let alone all the other sports they already have
Thought he made it crystal clear in my opinion.
6 year deals gotten to his head!
I'm shocked that sky would do that deal hats off to eddie the arrangement that they've got is gold dust respect to matchroom
Great questions from kugi bear
Brilliant interview Eddie has integrity like his old man. Any up & coming fighters should watch this.
His total honesty in his comment on if you believe in match room as your promoter is essential to understand how he & match room work.
As a coach you feel every shot your fighters take, you build a relationship with them that allows you to get inside their heads to understand how they tick. This allows you to handle them accordingly.
Eddie shows these attributes in this interview & comes across as genuine.
Match room are undoubtedly the main boxing promotion company in the UK.
People need to sit down listen to what’s on the table, think could I do this without them!
Too many times fighters think they’re being stitched up only to find the grass wasn’t greener on the other side!!
What your promoter gets for their work in building your profile is earned by them.
Going it alone isn’t an option!
So it’s better to go with the best & certainly when they actually have best interests at heart.
Match room deliver 👍🥊🏴
Great interview - Enjoy these 30 minutes+ interviews koogs would love a few more with a Groves, Callum Smith, Quigg
great interview! v honest! a genuine guy is eddie!
why after paying £16+ for a ppv fight do we not get it in HD?
What Frank Warren interview are they talking about?
top interview
his interviews are going to be ppv soon
Love Eddie , always entertaining
Eddie Hearn seems like an honest decent bloke.
great analogy about the air space and ppv. great interview kugan and Eddie. Eubank will be back I hope
Always a good listen Eddie, I think you have PPV fights and PPV fighters and there is a big difference, there are very few PPV fighters but lots of PPV fights, I believe AJ is a genuine PPV star but Brooke and DeGale unless they are in mega fights or unification bouts I can't see them doing the numbers
eddie hearn has the whole thing wrapped up , love this guy he is a genius , proper business man
2 years later and the rivalry is still going strong
Why was Hennessy and Fury not informed prior to this and why did the purse split not change after Brook was dropped from the card. I just think this monopoly Matchroom has been given over Sky has gone too far. Nothing against the stable but a competitive market is better.
Guessing the new PPV channel from Frank Warren would have to be different from Box Nation. Since BoxNation already offers a PPV for a fight anyway.
ITV could blow Sky out of the game any time
+alex campbell No they couldn't? Where would they get the money from? You do realise the reason ITV don't do boxing anymore is because Sky wiped the floor with them?
+Callum Shaw they could
It's the same with football
Commenting as I watch I believe in Eddie Hearn you gotta want it both parties as songwriter and charity promoter I wish when I worked with promoters on big festivals that they would have eddies attitude there's always room for everyone to be successful in this life clearer heads need to prevail
shave his head and it's dana white
fuck sake man loool
The gezzer is on point on everything
way too much talk of PPV...SO US SKY BOXING FANS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO ALWAYS PAY OUT MORE FOR A DECENT FIGHT ??
+Ben Lowe We won't, that's the thing. Brook is essentially a ppv fighter already, DeGale will co-headline a British ppv card in the USA along with say an AJ or Brook.
+Ben Lowe why do you fear boxnation or free to air itv getting David Haye fight? You love match room don't you?? 😬
+Ben Lowe I can't see DeGale being on Sky's standard platform again unless he's fighting in America and its being screened here, why would he? He got 1.3 mil for fighting Bute in Canada... DeGale won't headline UK ppv unless he's co-headlining.
Brook will fight IBF mandatory but no doubt it'll be on AJ card or something and it'll be ppv
+Donny Danko shut up mug,you prob not a boxing fan..do one.
With the Fury/Klitschko fight PPV available on sky box office. You might need to revisit this with Eddie, Kugan.
its all very pedantic. matchroom has an exclusive deal with skysports & skysports ppv. however they dont have sky box office which by offcom has to be a separate entity. therefore boxnation can stage ppv with sky box office (ie the providers of movies and wrestling) without interference from matchroom who are skysports ONLY!!!
ITV need to start showing boxing matches again, that would make things much more interesting for us boxing fans
This hasn't aged well
Eddie hearn a very smart business individual. UK boxing has never been this exiting since the lennox lewis days. Uk boxing is being talked about and thats what matters. For sure some of the fights are not PPV material but people are interested and purchasing, so overall its a win win situation for boxing, the fighters, the promoters, the fans.
We all know Channel 5 is the home of British boxing....Who the hell are Sky?
that jumbo jet thing was a metaphor, not an analogy
The distinction you have to make is Sky SPORTS box office which Eddie and Sky box office. Other promoters can put shows on Sky box office but if they want to put it on sky sports box office it has to go through matchroom and I'm sure matchroom get a cut of the ppv etc.
interview Mick n Peter about this too
Eddie Hearn is the best promoter he can deliver the best fights!!! If I was boxer I with sign for match room boxing. 💰💰💰
"24 hours a day" is the moment The Fonz jumped the shark.
its rather simple, give the people what they want and you will get your own rewards
Great interview. Would love to have seen this type of thing back in the days of Duff, Barrett, Astaire - and then Frank, etc. Just hope Kugan didn't p--s Eddie off too much toward the end. British boxing currently enjoying a real high, much of which [directly or indirectly] must be attributed to Eddie. Like it or not [I do, FWIW], it is what it is...
well done kugg another good interview.eddie is switched on
So basically im reading this as.... if a UK boxer is not paying a percentage to matchroom they wont be able to box in a huge fight on these shores with another promoter ... Doesn't seem good for the sport and the prosect of undisputed world champions
Eddie they have there own tv box national still pv on different channel..
Hearn vs Warren behind the gloves !
Haha people slate Brook/Gavin but it's actually the most enjoyable card I've watched in years!
Wish sky sports would show the ufc instead of BT sports
Nope they would make it ppv I'd rather leave it on bt sport
maybes but i dont think they would as its not that popluar in the uk
There's a touch of David Brent to Eddie , sounds like trouble at the mill to me.
Big Frank ready to pounce and poach :)
I agree with a great deal of what Eddie says but the PPV figures weren't just off the scale because of Anthony Joshua alone, if that was the only big fight on the night I wouldn't have purchased it. I paid the PPV money because of the entire card so he shouldn't get too carried away by linking the PPV viewing numbers with Joshua.
I know lots people dislike Eddie Hearn but i think he's a decent guy. Also i think the Fury's are genuinely nice people and British boxing is buzzing thanks to these people. Tyson should of won SPOTY in my opinion.
I like Matchroom, and Hearn Promotions. But is it ever good for one promoter to have so much power?
+Christmas Carl no its not
The monopoly is no good for British boxing fans but it is great for match room, Lazy on sky's part though.
Why didn't he inform Hennessy? Seems pretty sneaky to me
You tell em ed
Eddie is just like a politician.
Eddie, Frank, Mick Hennessey & Kelly Maloney all around a table just 'shooting the breeze' would be simply 👌.
Cmon Kugan, if anyone can make this happen it's YOU my friend
If they had a face to face debate filmed by IFLTV Frank would be screaming lawsuits within five minutes ha ha
win win they all make money
One point regarding Eddie Hearn if I had a business and needed it running this guy would make it a success.....He misses fuck all
Eddie is sky sport. LOL. Well done eddy. Very well done
Eubank strikes again. He just loves to be awkward. Crazy.
british boxing is buzzing right now. eddie hearn has played a big part in that. and will continue hopefully.
eddie they didn't sell 4000 tickets but they were simulcast on showtime. Whereas nobody overseas buys your fights.
