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:
- 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.
- Lack of power
- 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.

The Brit was dropped twice by massive underdog Prenga in the opening round of their clash in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, but ‘AJ’ managed to recover and record a big knockdown of his own in the second round that resulted in the stoppage victory.
Joshua and Usyk now train together, having famously had two battles for the unified world heavyweight title in 2021 and 2022, and the Ukrainian has had his say on his stablemate’s victory over Prenga.
Speaking to TalkSporttwo-time undisputed champion Usyk praised Joshua, insisting ‘AJ is back’ before predicting that Joshua will now claim a knockout win over long-term rival Tyson Fury in his next bout.
“Anthony Joshua is next undisputed champion. First round it’s a test but AJ is back.
It’s boxing, [the] big upper cut is good, it’s a knockdown. AJ [come] back and win.
“Greedy Belly [Fury] will speak now and say weak chin, Greedy Belly get out. AJ wins [against Fury], [he will] knock him out.”
Fury was victorious on Friday as he earned a seventh round retirement win against Mariusz Wach in Thailand, paving the way for the showdown against Joshua later this year.

Anthony Joshua may have earned a knockout win over Kristian Prenga but the fight certainly didn’t unfold as most people expected.
Joshua was facing the Albanian in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Saturday, and it looked like a massive upset could be on the cards when he was dropped twice in the opening round.
‘AJ’ was able to recover and went on to secure a second round knockout victory to prevent the shock lossseemingly paving the way for the battle against Tyson Fury later this year.
One man who was ringside to witness the battle was former cruiserweight world champion Tony Bellewand he praised Joshua’s ability to turn things around in the fight after describing it as ‘chaos’.
“We predicted round two but I don’t think we foresaw that. That was chaos. He doesn’t see the uppercut coming and finds himself on the floor without knowing how he got there.
“The second one he did see it coming and he was able to clench down on the jaw. He got up and then the experience that he has he used tonight because he tied him up. Against Andy Ruiz he didn’t know what he was doing and didn’t know how to do that, but tonight he did.
“He showed once again there is no quit. To be that hurt in the first round and get up, that’s the recoveries of power. People talk about your chin, but it’s not, it’s the level of fitness that gets you up from the floor.
“When Joshua gets a fighter hurt he’s the best finisher in the division. Whenever he hurts someone they’re gone. I haven’t seen him drop anybody and they survive, only Andy Ruiz. He’s a ruthless finisher.”
The clash between Joshua and Fury is now expected to be announced soon for later this year, after Fury won his own interim fight on Friday by defeating Mariusz Wach.
