But Palooka, with the greatest of respect to the general public, they can be hood winked far easier than the likes of you and me who have a little more knowledge and savvy regards the fight game and how good fighters are or can be :TU:
Thanks for that Quixall :TU: but I don't think the likes of us compare in Eddies mind (and to his accountant) to the 1000's of paying casual customers that can be fleeced for a long time. As long as the many put in he dough the boxers, promoters and managers can live with our sniping/moaning.

Oh yeah, the likes of Eddie Hearn operate with the intention of trying to con the casual fight fan into believing the bull that is said about fighters. Luckily for Eddie, the likes of you, me and other notables on this forum do not amount to anymore than a few 100 people, so it doesn't matter that we can see through the bull and see what Brook is all about.
