Simon Jordan appeared to question Eddie Hearn’s future in boxing after warning him that Saudi boxing bosses are capable of taking full control of the sport.

Jordan and Hearn engaged in another gripping debate during: live broadcast on talkSPORTmuch of which focused on the matchday chairman’s involvement in Saudi Arabia and, in particular, Turki Alalshikh, who played a key role in establishing the region as a major player in the world of boxing.

Alalshikh paired Hearn with long-time promotional rival Frank Warren and pitted them against each other in 5vs5 tournament in Saudi Arabia in June, with Warren Queensberry prevailing with a whitewash.

Following its inaugural appearance in the US last month, the Alalshikh Riyadh Season enters the UK for the first time on 21st September with the IBF heavyweight world title fight between Daniel Dubois and Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium.

As the talkSPORT pundit stated, Jordan recently had doubts about whether promoters were even necessary, and during a face-to-face meeting with Hearn, he reiterated that suggestion.

“When you replace the establishment, you become the establishment,” Jordan said.

“We are in a special time, these guys are making these fights especially for them.

“They just show up, and for me that’s not a substantial skill set.

“I wonder if the ultimate goal would be for the Saudis to say, ‘What do we need these guys for?’ They’re glorified agents, we can get fighters.

“If there wasn’t a damn good reason, why would I hang out with Hearn and [Frank] Warren.

“If I can economically turn off the lights, why do I need them?”

Matchroom was the main promoter of the first American Riyadh Season card which saw this Terence Crawford He won the WBA super welterweight title by defeating Israil Madrimov.

Hearn insists the event would not have been possible without his company’s work behind the scenes.

“I think it’s a bit harsh,” the 45-year-old replied.

“We have a huge business in running global sports. That skill goes deeper than just being a glorified agent and making deals.

“A few weeks ago we ran a season in Riyadh, USA with a 40-person Matchroom team.

“It was an event that could not have taken place without us in terms of promotion, infrastructure of television transactions, licensing, contacts with commissions, local governments and local authorities.

“This work is just amazing, and as the programs get bigger and the work changes.

“This is not a deal-and-cut situation.

“We and Queensberry are doing a huge amount of work ourselves, taking into account the demands of these people, and Turki Alalshikh demands that it is not basic to do it alone.”

Earlier this week, Alalshikh announced he would be capping pay-per-view prices to ensure fans paid no more than £20 in the UK and $20 worldwide.

Former Crystal Palace owner Jordan has dismissed Hearn’s suggestion that his company is crucial to the Saudis and believes they could monopolise the sport if they wanted to.

If he can gain the knowledge needed to fight the fights you cannot fight.

“He can gain the knowledge necessary to organize the events that you organize.

“So given the scale of the budget and the scale of the opportunity they have, they can turn the lights out if they feel like it.

“Now, whether they want it or not is another matter whether there is any benefit from it.”

Pachaco (23-0, 18 KO) was last seen in August, beating Macej Sulecki with arrows in the body in six rounds, while Nelson (20-1, 16 KO) also dropped out in the same month, defeating Marcos Vazquez Rodriguez in five rounds in Los Angeles.

Pakco began carefully because he devoted time to looking at the rival, who was already successful at the beginning, leaving forward and releasing his hands.

In the fourth round, Nelson took the cut with a brisk right hand of Pacharo and it seemed that this tilted the scales in favor of the 23-year-old.

Nelson had vision problems, which allowed Pasteco to make a few eye -catching counterattacks and combinations, especially in the seventh round, after which he slowly began to unscrew the screw as he struggled.
