Eddie Hearn answered this week to Turk’s comments Alalshikha about the fact that they no longer want to support fighters who simply run in the ring, without pulling on his seasonal cards in Riyadh.

Hearn partly defended defensive fighters, saying that boxing is “sweet science” “hit-and get hit”. However, Hearn claims that there is a “balance of skills and entertainment,” and the fighters must do it to make them exported.

Hearn on the ban on Turki runners

In the case of Turk’s directive, in order not to include runners in his events, fighters must be ready to risk hitting his cards. Hearn has several runners who are trying to turn into stars, and wants them to be on Turki’s pages. If they cannot meet his requirements, then on them. For those who do not adapt to boxing, they are exhausted.

“You have to do a mixture well. Ultimately, this is a sweet science. Hit and do not go. We understand, but it is also an entertainment business,” said Eddie Hearn Fight Hub tvResponding to Alalshikh’s Turks, saying that he no longer wants to fight the type of “Tom and Jerry” on his Riyadh season cards.

Turki explained very much in his position. He wants to engage fighters. There is no mixture, as Hearn says. He wants fighters who placed it on the line. He tries to save boxing and he can’t do it if his cards have fighters who run away all night.

Hearn has several runners that he must remain steadfast, Shakur Stevenson and Richardson Hitchins; That is why he is cautious about what he says and does not quite agree with Turk’s desire to entertain the fighters. He can’t just lose Hitchins and Shakur, but they don’t meet the requirements to be electrifying for fans.

Defense of “Sweet Science” Hearna

“So people do not want to watch, or a very tiny minority of the audience. And they are very well-educated boxing people. They don’t really want to watch the defensive defensive class of a guy winning every round, and he doesn’t really respect himself, showing aggression, trying to end the fight at any time,” Hearn said.

Fans who like to watch movement and the style of impact, prefer these warriors to mix it more. However, they also appreciate this approach. Unfortunately, there are not enough of them to justify having them on the main cards.

Fans will tolerate runners if they are buried in pre -sight pre -sight, outside the mind, but not on the main cards. When fans buy PPV events, they don’t want to watch the runner. Most fans are not muddy. So, when they pay for a boxing card, they spend money that they could employ for other things, such as needs. Hearn has no contact with this type of person.

“It’s very tough. If you have an smart conversation with a warrior. If they know that they can win every round box, I can’t really go, I really can’t go to the warrior and go:” Look, buddy. I know you are a great boxer and I can win every round, but I really need to change your style, stand and trade, “said Hearn.

As a promoter, Hearna’s task is to tell their warriors that they have to change their style if they are uninteresting because they cannot sell. What’s more, it looks bad when fans boom or sit quietly without reacting to running. We all saw Shakur Stevenson’s fights with electrician Josh Padley and Edwin de los Santos. These are uninteresting fights. Hearn must have an “smart conversation” with his warriors if they are not entertaining.

Turk’s vision: End Runners

“They will look at me as if I was furious. But in reality, if you are not entertaining, you will become tough sales. And if you become tough sales, you can start a shortage of possibilities, especially in vast fights,” said Hearn. “And his Excellency [Turki Alalshikh] In a sense, put your flag on the sand there and said: “If you don’t have fun, I don’t want you on my programs.”

Hearn must tell his fighters, Shakur Stevenson and Richardson Hitchins. If they want to be included in the Turki cards, they must mix it. He should not take care of whether they look at him, as if he were crazy when he tells them to stop running, standing in his pocket and fought. If they want to get vast bags that Turks pay, they will listen to Hearn and agree.

Hearn should not feel guilty, telling them what they have to do. If they don’t like it, it’s on them. I don’t see Shakur deciding to change his style to become more aggressive. It can’t and not.

Hearna fighters must adapt

Stevenson knows that he is too feeble and penniless offensive to defeat William Zepeda and almost every good lightweight. There is no other choice but to escape. Shakur also has a gigantic ego and will feel that Turki will still want to employ it, even if he threw Louis Armstrong stadium at Queens next month. If Turki decides to exclude him, Hearn will get stuck with him. Shakur will not be joyful fighting to change Chump on smaller programs.

“But everyone is different. You also reach the stage in your career. Floyd [Mayweather Jr] He was a good example. And probably Canelo is now, where if I can have an effortless night and earn a huge amount of money, it is called Great Business, “said Hearn.

Turki is still ready to pay Canelo for his cards, but if he continues to work as he did against William Scull, there would be no shock if he was excluded because he is no longer entertaining. Canelo’s last three fights were uninteresting because he lacked gas after the first quarter of the battle. He didn’t try to play safely. Fortunately, Mayweather is still not fighting because his fights have become incredibly uninteresting when he reached 30 years. He made a minimum to win and pass at the speed of his hand, movement and careful equipping. Ultimately, Floyd chose Cherry all the time and none of his fights was entertaining.

“This does not mean that if I am called to go to the trenches, I am not prepared to go there. Canelo is a great example,” said Hearn. “If he were called, he would go to the trenches against Crawford, he will do it. But I tell you what. He would rather get without a trace on his face and say:” Thank you very much. “

Canelo is elderly and has shown in the last few fights that he can mix it only for three rounds before fatigue. The point is not that he deliberately plays it safely. There is no fuel tank to be challenging to fight for more than three rounds. He doesn’t try to be uninteresting like Richardson Hitchins, Devin Haney and Shakur Stevenson. He can’t fight challenging because of his age and cardio problems.

“And there is nothing bad about it. It’s an smart business, but it’s good that it is a mixture. After all, Floyd, at his own discretion, robbed the bank every time he fought. He entered there and won each round, he was not hit. Thank you very much. Thank you very much that there must be a mixture. I just don’t think Richardson. [Hitchins] He is a uninteresting warrior at all, “said Hearn.

The price of uninteresting boxing

Hearn sailed away from the original point. It’s about Turks Alalshikh, saying that he doesn’t want safety fighters on his Riyada seasonal cards. Fighters who have uninteresting styles, such as Mayweather Jr., have nothing to do with this era. It is a relic from the time before the Internet. Turki pays checks for fighters and wants artists. If this means hearna warriors, Richardson Hitchins and Shakur Stevenson, they are not invited to his events, so it is. Hearn cannot sell these Turk fighters if he doesn’t want uninteresting fighters at his events.

The sale of tickets for the event on July 12 next month is supposedly feeble, and Shakur is a factor. Why should Turks want a warrior known for his uninteresting style to be on his cards if fans think he is uninteresting and can’t sell tickets? This means that Hearn wasted his money by signing Shakur and since signing it has no value. Once he fought for Hearn against Josh Padley, a tiny warrior without power, not a world -class.

“Is he a boxer champion? Of course. Is he a chance and is exchanged a beard in the air? Not really,” said Hearn.

Hitchins is also known for its uninteresting style and has been booed in recent fights. You would not expect Hearn to talk about it because he promotes Hitchins. He does not intend to criticize him, but his performances are often uninteresting. Hearn chose George Cambosos as his opponent, not pretenders who would potentially beat Hitchins or make him look bad, like Subriel Matias.
