    Ironic how Barry always claims to care so much about opportunities for kids to play sport in this country and wants more focus on it, yet he’s also happy to ship all of the events held here over to Saudi Arabia in order to make a quick buck. Respect him a lot as a businessman and think he’s great at it, but equally a massive hypocrite.

    • @coachleemarshall

      I get it. I love boxing. I have just watched in the space of a year all the dream fights I want and more to come. No atmosphere but I'm going to have to get past that plus some of these fighters some people or casuals have not heard with some upsets along the way. When you have a builder changing his life over night rather than giving it up or getting a grand for a fight over here it's hard to argue.

    When you consider Rashford is on £300k a week for sitting on a bench mostly. Littler's winnings do seem a bit on the low side.

      World cup final viewing figures 1.5 billion
      World darts final 4.8 million
      312 people to darts 1.
      So Rashord earning 300k is equivalent of a darts player earning less than a grand.

    When we went to the world final 5-6 years ago, you had to buy beer vouchers before going to the bar. The sign above the bar said it closed at 10:30pm so we stocked up on vouchers to save queuing twice.
    Then because the match was looking likely to be over fairly quickly we went out to buy the rest of our drinks only to find the bar was closed at 9:30pm with no way for us to get a voucher refund.
    As a group this cost us £50 in unclaimed vouchers.
    Felt robbed!!!

    Hearn making the money and players getting robbed. 17 weeks and 5k plus venues and they payout £275k for winning the prem league of darts. 7-10 million I would guess from watching for 17 weeks and nevermind the sponsorship. Unless your in top 8 and winning, dart players are not making much after tax.

    Without ronnie everyone knows snooker would be a bore fest today, and have no appeal, and this hearn claims snooker today is wonderful
    He is a total bullshitter, always selling his lies.
    People like hearn is always looking to exploit people for there own benefit, not for the benefit of the sport.
