Well at least it's a positive after the disappointment of another yet another Fury duck. :maybe:

“There’s gonna be a big night in December, and we’ll be announcing very soon. It will be massive. You’re gonna love it. I can’t give you all the information at the moment, but everything’s going in the right direction for it to be a historical night in boxing.”

“It’s gonna feature boxers from all over the world. You will be surprised by the names. There’s some great British fighters too.”

“I don’t want to say too much because I know I talk to much. As I said, we have been approached regarding that date. It’s six weeks, we’ve got a big international stable of fighters, some of which would be ready to fight on December 23. We’ll see what happens.”

“I think, at this stage, if AJ fights on December 23rd it would be internationally. I think that’s all I’ll say on it.”

Plenty of words and absolutely no substance. Eddie should have been a politician :lol:

Yeah, a lot of words. Just a shame that, in your usual rush to jump all over Hearn (or AJ) you end up looking a bit of a prat again.

The first 2 paragraphs were said by Fwank.
It also appears that Hearn was asked the question rather than releasing an announcement. Oh deary me :doh: :OhYes:

Warren confirmed he was working on it and told TalkSPORT that fans would ‘be surprised’ at the fighters who would star on the card.

“There’s gonna be a big night in December, and we’ll be announcing very soon. It will be massive. You’re gonna love it. I can’t give you all the information at the moment, but everything’s going in the right direction for it to be a historical night in boxing.”

“It’s gonna feature boxers from all over the world. You will be surprised by the names. There’s some great British fighters too.”


Asked by Boxing Social what he knew of the event, rival promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed that he has been approached about one or more of his fighters competing.

“I don’t want to say too much because I know I talk to much. As I said, we have been approached regarding that date. It’s six weeks, we’ve got a big international stable of fighters, some of which would be ready to fight on December 23. We’ll see what happens.”

Asked if his star heavyweight attraction, Anthony Joshua, could feature, the promoter remained tight-lipped but was far from ruling it out.

“I think, at this stage, if AJ fights on December 23rd it would be internationally. I think that’s all I’ll say on it.”

Hearn messes with his head so much he can't even differentiate beween Warren's empty words and Hearn responding to a question.
