Knock the c()nt out James please, I dislike you although warming to your change of tack recently, I hate that c()nt, KO, belt, adios.

I know it's getting repetitive but that film Déjà Vu gets another viewing.
Politically this has nothing to do with the fight.
Yet again this is a UK Promoter being put in his place by the big boys. Chump change to Al this purse bid but what it says to Hearn - as King did to Wazza - is if you want to dine at the Mister's table..... Get ready.

Has Hearn ever won a purse bid????? Bjs/Ryder, cradle/flannagan and dirrell/degale all lost.
And he thinks roc nation won't be able to compete with him for froch/ward!! At least with all the money he saved he will be flying to Oakland 1st class!!!

He won the purse bids for Smith-Ochieng and he won the purse bids for Saunders-Ryder the first time, but they filled in the paperwork wrong

There's European title fights too on top of all the fights that were negotiated that didn't go to purse bids or that didn't happen through bad luck such as Bute v Froch and Crolla v Abril. Ultimately people can sit and laugh but as I'v said, no UK promoter was winning this bid unless they got tipped off on what Warriors boxing promotions were going to bid. We'll see evidence of this if Quillin ends up beating Andy Lee, Quillin aint coming to the UK if he beats Lee.

[rio]

Agree....Warren better put his money where his mouth is if quillen beats Lee especially after hammering Hearn about sending his fighters stateside to lose instead of getting home advantage. Also BJS is clearly warrens no1 fighter in his stable so he better try his best and more to get it over here.

Andre Dirrell is a 6/5 underdog to win this fight, anyone else surprised at this?

I def thought the bookies would have made Dirrell the favourite, dissapointed they did not as i was hoping to get some value on DeGale, i favour him to win this though i realise its a tough assignment, reckon he can pull it off though.
