Eddie Hearn has never been afraid to ruffle a few feathers and this week he featured one of boxing’s biggest stars.

Although Hearn had exhibitions on both sides of the Atlantic last weekend in Diego Pacecho vs Steven Nelson and Dalton Smith vs Walid Ouizza, his attention was apparently temporarily drawn elsewhere.

The only other card of note took place at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo, with Naoya Inoue defending his undisputed Super Bantamweight title from Fourth round victory over South Korea’s Ye Joon Kim.

The Matchroom boss has been constantly calling for INOUE to face his charge of Murodjon Akhmadaliev, the former unified titlist who is now mandatory for the “WBA Monster belt”.

However, the Japanese star is reportedly set to face WBC #1 challenger Alan Picasso in Las Vegas next – and as such, Hearn outed him in his latest interview with IFL-TV.

“Why should Naoya Inoue be given a pass to fight low-level opponents and impose obligation? Not once, not twice – but three times!

“I feel like if it was AJ… Imagine if AJ ducked Usyk. A lot of people said not to fight him, but he said, “No, I’m the champion and I want to be undisputed.”

“That’s what you do.

“Inoue is undisputed and great pound for pound. But I must say his resume is quite ***, to be forthright.

“I think Naoya Inoue is very disappointing as a champion. Fight fans need to wake up here to what’s going on.

“He has now been ordered to fight MJ twice. And he paid the WBA money to let him avoid it!

“Now he will fight Picasso! He’s an artist, right? He’s been spotted doing some pastel work lately! What the fuck? “

It remains unclear whether Akhmadaliev will get his shot at Inoue, and traction will also gain for a substantial fight against four-time world champion Junto Nakatani, as well as Go Ball.

Couples were ordered to fight for the European title at the beginning of this year, but the “killers” released the belt, which was then picked up by Sheffield’s favorite against Ouizza on Saturday evening.

Although the fight between Smith and Azim would undoubtedly capture the imagination of British fight fans, “Thunder” is five years older than his countryman and much more experienced and there is a feeling that they may not meet for several years.

“I don’t think they want to fight Dalton Smith in the near future. Why would you have?

“At this stage of their career, I think it is clear who is better than the other. This does not mean how it will end.

“But Dalton Smith fights in this fight all day as a huge favorite. For someone like Adam Azim, this is not a risk that is worth taking now.

“He is a teenage child and deserves care, as if he looked after Dalton Smith.

“Now it fits Dalton Smith, but now he should not fit Adam Azim. This is how it is, it does not diminish how brilliant both are fighters. “

Smith will be a challenge to the winner of WBC World Title Fight between Alberto Puello and Sandor Martin, who will take place on Gervonta Davis vs Lamont Roach Undercard on March 1.
