So basically it’s a book which he’s worked on for a grand total of about 6 weeks. Should be incredibly insightful then.
I can just picture the scene, Eddie sitting in his Dad's mansion, hammering away at his typewriter, words of wisdom rattling out of his fingertips like there's no tomorrow.

Or, he sat at his desk talking ballony while some young ghost writer wrote the thing for him. Seems a far more likely scenario.

I imagine a scene similar to the one in 'I'm Alan Partridge' when he goes to watch his all the unsold copies of his autobiography 'Bouncing Back' being pulped.

"What does it take to succeed? What is the mindset required to be the best? How do you stay at the top of your field? How do you come back from failure?

Eddie Hearn knows what it takes. In his remarkable career, Hearn has worked alongside some of the biggest names in sports entertainment and has seen first-hand the grit and relentless determination that it takes to succeed.

Structured around the key skills that Eddie Hearn values the most, this book looks at his business, life, and the drive to succeed. Covering subjects such as discipline, passion, preparation, motivation and failure, this book shows you what it takes to get the most in your life and career.

In this insightful and revealing book, Eddie talks about the highs and lows of his career - from negotiating a billion dollar boxing deal to selling out Wembley for the Joshua Klitschko fight - and draws the valuable lessons that we can learn from boxing's toughest performers.

Book Description
A motivational and inspirational guide to success, from one of the most successful and recognisable boxing promoters in the world.

I’ve got smith’s book. It’s not that bad really. It’s a bit samey and he mainly talks about Ricky Hatton and their early sky career.

I’ve certainly read worse boxing books. It’s not badly written it’s not just particularly interesting or insightful. I suppose if you want to hear about shades of morales Barrera or corrales Castillo and how he approached the commentary it’s “interesting”.

I always stopped into charity shops in Liverpool to check out the books. I was never in a shop without a Jordan autobiography. Loadsa different ones as Well!!! I was in prison in Spain for a month and one of the 10 or so English books was a fuking Jordan autobiography!! Who reads all these books that she has managed to write more than 1. And I find it hard to believe that the content of her life warrants more than 1 biography. I had to do a night of security in a club in Spain for her and she seemed as thick as a plank :bag:

Broadcast live on Sky PPV at £9.99 a paragraph...
Have to admit him singing "aint no sunshine" on IFL and the his "middle 8" bit where he is referencing "the ppv is back" etc - I just hope someone with some computer skills could edit that out and bring in his quotes from some social media boxing site post Cleverley vs Bellew 2. "the ppv model doesn't work".

Hodder & Stoughton will publish boxing promoter Eddie Hearn’s first book this October. Relentless: 12 Rounds to Success offers insight into Eddie’s way of working and the lessons he has learnt in life and business.

Huw Armstrong, senior commissioning editor at Hodder & Stoughton, acquired world rights in print, serial, digital and audio from Matchroom Boxing.

Eddie Hearn is one of the most recognisable faces in boxing. His company, Matchroom Boxing, have represented some of the biggest names in sports entertainment, including the likes of Anthony Joshua, Katie Taylor, Tony Bellew, Carl Froch and many more. Under Eddie’s leadership Matchroom Boxing has returned to the forefront of the sport around the world. His combination of charm, drive, and serious business judgment has driven him to the very top. His innovation in the sport, such as working with social-media stars, global expansion, and targeting new audiences has propelled him and the sport to new heights.

In Relentless, Eddie will reveal his business mindset. Structured in twelve rounds and the key skills that Eddie values the most, this book looks at business, life, and the drive to succeed. From his beginnings selling double glazing to selling out Wembley and negotiating a billion-dollar streaming deal, Eddie draws the valuable lessons that he has learnt along the way to inspire readers to apply them to their own life.

Huw Armstrong says: “Eddie’s career has been remarkable. His rise as one of the most prominent and influential voices in the sport is unparalleled. This book will offer readers a side to him they don’t often see – the grit, determination and relentless pursuit for success. I can’t wait for this book to be out there; it’s not going to disappoint.”

Eddie Hearn says: “I’m very proud to release my first book Relentless with Hodder & Stoughton this October. Lockdown has given me the opportunity to focus on some projects that I wouldn’t normally have time for, it also gave me a chance to reflect on my career and experiences so far. This book reveals my strategy for success and how a positive mindset and a relentless worth ethic can help you achieve your goals. I feel in the current climate, with the challenges that undoubtedly lie ahead, the contents are more relevant than ever.”

The hardback, eBook and Audiobook will be published on 29th October 2020.
