Eddie Hearn is crazy when Richardson Hitchins announces a free agency after the victory of George Cambosos

Eddie Hearn sounded furious on last Saturday, responding to his warrior match, a welterweight master of IBF Richardson Hitchins, announcing inside the ring that he was a free agent after winning George Cambosos at Madison Square Garden in Novel York.

Hearn says he has invested a lot of money in the development of Hitchins (20-0, 8 KO), maneuvering him to the title of the world and the fight of Cambosos. He lost his money in Hitchins’ fight. He felt that he was a stab in the back, a sign of disloyalty, which Richardson, 27, decided to announce to the world last Saturday, that he was a free agent.

Hearn’s Lost Hitchins Investment

Hitchins, of course, counts, it’s someone with a lot of money, such as Turks Alalshikhh, to collect him and pay him millions, as if we saw with a former match warrior, Edgar Berlang.

Richardson: no power, monotonous style

Hitchins did not show the talent who defeated the best fighters at the age of 140. He can defeat some of them, but he probably lost to Gary Antuanne Russell, Alberto Puello and Teofimo Lopez, because he has no power. Hitchins’ crime is restricted to stab and law.

This style will not work against Russelle, Lopez and even Subriel Matias. This can explain why Hitchins did not show interest in the fight against Matias or Russell. These guys beat him. The novice in the division, Keyshawn Davis, would also be a nightmare for Hitchins, like Ernesto Mercardo.

Hitchins is like another type of Devin Haney. There is no power and must be carefully adjusted, otherwise he lost. It is not clear why Hearn wasted money on him because he is not talented enough to defeat the killers in the division obsolete Mayweather game.

“There is no loyalty in boxing. I remember when I met Richardson Hitchins. The door of his car fell. I spent a lot of money, investing in a youthful man I really respect,” said Eddie Hearn IFL TVResponding to Richardson Hitchins, announcing that he is a free agent in the ring last Saturday evening after the victory over George Cambosos Jr.

I don’t know why Hearn is so nervous that Hitchins announces his free agency. He should say, don’t let the door hit you. Now I can focus on fighter -friendly fans.

The real question is: why did Hearn invested money in Hitchins when his combat style is monotonous, not one that resonates with fans? It was a mistake. Hearn has fighters who have much more fans -friendly styles than Hitchins, which he should build. In the case of Hitchins, it must be protected, because if it is inserted with good 140-pound, such as Gary Antuanne Russell, Ernesto Mercado, Keyshawn Davis and Subriel Matias, would probably lose.

Even Arnold Barboz Jr. And Jake Cattell would be 50-50 fights for Hitchins. He would be pleased with these guys. The only good thing in Hitchins is a garbage conversation, which he performs outside the ring during interviews. He is not a social media guy such as Shakur Stevenson, who publishes on X every day and has vast supporters. Hitchins’ account in social media has very few observers.

Ticket sale: Hitchins problem

“I turned him on Madison Square Garden [against John Bauza]. I recorded him in Orlando [against Jose Zepeda]where we didn’t really sell a lot of tickets and lost a lot of money, “said Hearn about Hitchins.” I adhered to it. I ordered him in Las Vegas [against Gustavo Lemos]Where we didn’t sell many tickets again and lost money. “

The manweather style fails Hitchins

Hearn should have woke up and feel coffee when Hitchins fights with Bauza, Zepeda and Lemos, they did not sell tickets. In addition, Richardson was booed by fans in these fights for his monotonous, most vital combat style. At this point, Hearn should get a clue that the USA on the west coast does not like their hit Retro style manweatherwhich does not work in this era.

“As for Richie [Hitchins] He is concerned, Keith Connolly said: “Make sure you are a free agent.” But that’s fine because you know what you are dealing with. Do I want to be in the Richardson Hitchins industry if so? “Hearn said.

Hitchins has already shown his hand, announcing to the fan that he is a free agent and there is no match. Why would Hearn still want to work with him after he did it? I wouldn’t do it. Let him leave. When Hitchins begins to lose and discovers the money, which he thought, will not be there, he is not there, he will come back. These two problems of Hitchina are these:

  1. Dull fighting style: he uses the style of Mayweather Pot-Shot, which does not work in this era to entertain fans. His fight with Cambosos from the surplus was monotonous to watch.
  2. Lack of power
  3. It must be protected: Hitchins promoters must avoid putting him against killers aged 140 or 147 because he lost. He is not talented enough to defeat Russell, Mercado, Keyshawn, Brian Norman Jr. or Giyasov Shachram. Everyone can see it.

“Edgar Berlanga, who also [is with Keith Connolly, won the lottery, but Turki came along and [signed him]-said Hearn about Berlanga, a warrior who recently decided not to repeat the match again, despite the fact that he was maneuvering a great payment against Canelo Alvarez.

“If he suits me,” said Hearn, asked if he would be ready to cooperate with Hitchins again.

It seems that Hitchins thinks that Turks Alalshikh collects him like from Edgar Berlang after leaving the match. According to Turk’s reports, she will not cooperate with the Hitchins, unless he is with Matchroom. It does not leave Hitchins as soon as you swallow his pride and return to Hearn, hoping that he will still welcome him.

Junto Nakatani Banking size vs. Naoya Inoue

Image: Junto Nakatani Banking On Size, Youth Against Naoya Inoue

“I think my size and youth should be a gigantic advantage. It gives me an even better chance to win,” Nakatani told The Ring.

Inoue’s reluctance to make the jump to 126 pounds at featherweight may be the most truthful admission of his physical limitations.

Inoue has fought fighters who hydrated to be hefty, but Nakatani is elevated. At 5’7″ or 5’8″, he has the skeletal leverage of a natural featherweight or super featherweight.

Most of Inoue’s opponents end up with confined time as they have to rush to hit him. Nakatani can theoretically sit outside and throw a punch without putting his chin in the red zone.

The numbers support this belief on paper. Nakatani will enter with a three-inch height advantage, a slight reach advantage and a five-year age difference. He also has natural size from climbing three weight classes, which he plans to exploit for the full distance rather than chasing an early finish.

“This fight will 100% be a war and I think I will win by decision once I overcome everything Inoue throws at me,” Nakatani said.

In his December victory over Sebastian Hernandez, Nakatani was forced into a fierce fight in which both men landed heavily, taking 273 punches in a back-and-forth fight that went the distance. He showed toughness, but also suggested he could get hit when exchanges open up.

It’s not that Inoue is afraid of fighting a bigger opponent, but more that he is a perfectionist who knows that when you lose your physical advantage, you have to rely completely on your endurance. Nakatani is the first fighter in a long time who can actually make Inoue look petite in the ring.

Erik Morales Gives Fair Verdict on Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2: “Who Will Win”

Erik Morales delivers honest verdict on Mayweather vs Pacquiao 2: “That’s who will win”

Mexican boxing legend Erik Morales, who is the same age as Floyd Mayweather, presented his version of the 49-year-old’s expected rematch with Manny Pacquiao.

The two pound-for-pound icons will face off in a professional competition on September 19, headlining the Netflix event at The Sphere in Las Vegas.

However, their second meeting seemed to be in jeopardy after Mayweather stated last month that it would be an exhibition match.

Pacquiao and his team have since stated that it will be a fully sanctioned fight, but we are still waiting for an official announcement.

Their first meeting took place in 2015 and earned Mayweather a unanimous decision victory in an event that quickly became known as the most lucrative boxing event of all time.

Shortly thereafter Pacquiao claimed he entered the welterweight fight with a shoulder injurybut he never had the opportunity to exact his revenge.

But now the 47-year-old hopes to break Mayweather’s 50-0 record after ending his nearly four-year hiatus from professional boxing last July.

But while the Filipino drew with Mario Barrios, the then-WBC welterweight champion, many suggested he and Mayweather shouldn’t be entering the ring at this stage of their lives.

One of them is Morales, who fought Pacquiao three times, winning the first meeting but losing the next two. He told Fight Hub TV that the rematch would be won by the Hall of Famer who turned down the fight the least.

“We’re not at the age to get into fights. But hey, it’ll be intriguing. Whoever arrives the least injured and a little faster, [will win]”

Ahead of any rematch with Pacquiao, Mayweather confirmed he would fight Greek kickboxer Mike Zambidis on June 27.

Deontay Wilder Manager: Joshua’s fight ‘never was’

“You can’t be disappointed with something that never happened,” Finkel told Sky Sports. “Eddie never contacted us and Joshua obviously had no intention of fighting Deontay Wilder. Same venerable story, just novel date.”

The comments question Eddie Hearn’s recent suggestions that Anthony Joshua could face Wilder ahead of his planned clash with Tyson Fury in slow 2026.

Joshua is instead scheduled to face Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Riyad, ending any immediate speculation about the long-discussed clash with Wilder.

Just a few weeks ago, Eddie Hearn was here calling Wilder a warm-up fight for Joshua’s scheduled fight with Tyson Fury. This is a solemn marketing move. This keeps the fans engaged and gives the impression that AJ is willing to take on the most risky puncher in the league just to keep himself busy.

However, Shelly Finkel’s answer is fascinating. He firmly stated that there was “no reason” to be frustrated because no real approach was ever taken. If Hearn was solemn, the first step would have been to email or call Finkel. According to Wilder’s camp, such a thing never happened.

Instead of Wilder, Joshua is now officially scheduled to face the little-known Prenga. This move serves two purposes for Joshua’s camp: It is a much safer fight as Joshua rehabs from his car accident earlier this year. It also opens the door to a massive fight with Fury in slow 2026 without the risk of Wilder ruining a payday with one right hand.

This has been a pattern for years. We saw this in 2019 when uncontested talks failed, and again in 2023 when both were on the “Day of Reckoning” card but never actually paired up.

Wilder, who recently returned to the ring after a victory over Derek Chisora, also mentioned his interest in a future fight with unified champion Oleksandr Usyk.

Finkel’s comments suggest that Joshua’s fight remains in familiar territory, being discussed publicly but never formally pursued behind the scenes.
