Warren V Hearn - The Rematch

[Fenster]

Shut up you insufferable cretin.

"Warren recently issued his financial statements, which are grim reading: Frank Warren’s W. Promotions had accumulated losses of £4.36million, net current liabilities of £3.7m. Hearn/Matchroom have net assets of £15.6m and profits of £5m."

[Master]

Warren has his own channel and he has been sued and owed $20 million dollars to King, he came back from that.

Bazza pulled a stroke on Warren and Don King at the same time. Benn-Eubank II contract was winner and loser goes to them. It said nothing about a draw!!! Owned the pair of 'em at the same time. Fact.

So, is Warren-Hearn the British version of Top Rank-Golden Boy?

Everyone is entitled to make a mistake once in a while, as long as you learn from them. It happens to the best of them.

Eddie Hearn hasnt built up a stable from scratch, he has bought existing talent.

Frank inows how to build a fighter. I dont think Eddie will finish Frank Warren. His dad had less and less to do with boxing as the years went on because it needed a big investment to build a star. Eddie has been given a wad of money to fuck around with by his dad basically.

He is putting good fights on BUT one of the reasons Frank and his fighter get so much shit is that they have shows where the quality of the opponents arent great. Basically cheap labour, so they can sell tickets and earn. If Eddie keeps making big fights and his fighters were to lose badly or even just retire, he wont get much return for his investment.

You have to remember boxing is a business and for the promoters to be ale to fund big shows they need to build capital with a few mediocre shows.

Im not a fan of Warren the man but he does get a lot of unwarranted shit when you look at what it takes to keep going in his line of work and how many promoters have come and gone, lose money etc and that he is still around and one of the top operators is testiment that he has been doing something right.

You mean did. They can't get away with pulling the wool over punters eyes like they used too.

Whether or not Barry's interest and investment dipped at one point, currently Eddie/Matchroom is wiping the floor with Frank. It's a mismatch.

Right now Warren is a domestic promoter, he's got zero world champions. He's in a position where he'd have to invest more money to take Cleverly back to world level and Cleverly wasn't a ticket seller when he was a world champ.

The only thing preventing him being completely fucked is Box Nation. That looks to be doing OK. The guy who owns Rainham Steel just made a big investment and they're going to start an HD channel. Hopefully it keeps going but I notice they don't have the Mares fight this weekend. I want to see Warren survive just so his channel survives.
