The younger Nigel would not have reacted so calmly.

Jnr said he is going to give the undercard fighters 50 grand between them because he felt bad about the money they lost from the first time around .
Hearn sniped " is that 50 grand each ?" Can't help himself, can he .
I think it's a decent gesture even though it probably won't be the same lads that lost out .

How many where on the undercard
6-8 boxers?
Split £6k each??
More than decent.
Plus, Hearn did say most of them got a run out within a few months anyway
Hearn with his crap comments.

Just take him with a pinch of salt. He was probably a bit spoilt and nasty as a youngster but he's turned out alright really. Good work ethic and a nice man at heart - albeit with an ego the size of a small planet.

Eloquence and the ability to hold a room is a big part of being a promoter yet in both press conferences so far Eddie has been outclassed in those areas by Eubank and has had to resort largely to making sniping, slightly cringeworthy comments while Jr commands the attention of the gallery

To be fair, I can't really disagree with that, Eubank was on fire.

After all that, tickets weren't that hard to get... 130,000 in the Spurs presale? Do they have 130,000 members? All of whom want to go watch boxing... Turki lies through his back teeth when it comes to tickets.

I bought some for other people and some to sell. I will sell them straight back to Ticketmaster, the market is weak. It won't even sell out.
