Recommended a 20 minute video of them facing off, has anybody clicked on this?? What could they possibly have to talk about for 20 minutes?? Is it just some banter juice with the Archbishop of Banterbury??

When I saw it.. I thought why??

Why is it needed?

The Hearn-Higgins one was decent but a little cringe too.

This was just a show off session.

They’re promoters. Promoting the show tonight and themselves. Will probably get a million or more people watching it or clips of it so I get it.

If there had been one with Warren and Whyte’s lawyer last week then I’d have certainly watched it!

Hearn had Paul on toast, Jake trying to claim his ESPN KO of the year makes him a top fighter

Yes Promote the show by all means but its just about "witty" slanging matches I can go to the bar or watch a roast, what was the actual conversation about??

Allegedly the biggest fight in ages but the two promoters are having a head to head rather than the fighters. Says it all.

Build up has seemingly all been about these two clowns and not the fighters.

The fighters have as well.

I think people are showing their age here. Jake Paul is a mega draw to the younger generation. Everything he is involved in will do good numbers so they are just using Jake Paul's drawing power.

It’s what you’d expect it to be about. Eddie criticising Jake’s boxing opponents, Jake saying he’s better than he is and then talking about the fight.

They seem to actually quite like each other and I think they’ve seemingly done a good job promoting this.

Yeah - that’s my take too.

I think this will do well for DAZN. Certainly more cost effective for them than having Mikey Garcia against Jessie Vargas which probably cost them $10m+.

I’m looking forward to the show. Some good undercard fights and a pick-em main event.

Yes don’t forget the Billericay Boxing King has a similar record to Paul. 4 and 0, 3 by way of

No I'm aware of the social media power of the Paul's, I don't think even any of his fans particularly care about seeing him argue with in their eyes some random Essex widebody for 20 minutes

So if I can sum up the video without watching it

Eddie respects Paul's hustle but he has never fought an actual boxer, Eddie has prospects who have 1 pro fight than can destroy Paul

Paul has been gradually stepping up his "competition" knocked out an accomplished (washed up small) MMA fighter in a highlight reel KO and he's taking boxing seriously and can actually be champion, he's also trying to get fighters paid

Am I close??

eddie like a boss getting his face more visible in the head to head weigh in shots than paul did. if i dont see eddie at a weigh in i just cant get as excited for a fight

Boomer is now trying to manufacture a fight with the youtube lad

Paul looking like Jimmy saville according to mcgregor

It was in my recommended too. I didn't watch it. I should have reported it for offensive or inappropriate content.

If that makes me old, I'm glad to be old. Both are insufferable pudenda. I used to quite like Hearn when and thought. he'd done wonders for British boxing. Recent things like this have definitely soured me on him a bit.

I watched it.
Surprised Paul hasn’t chinned Hearn yet.
“Average is a compliment”

I was surprised how seemingly honest Eddie was about Paul. Knowing Paul is out of contract and does good business I’m surprised Eddie was being more complimentary.

paul says he's 6'1 or 6'2 when he's clearly about the same height as 5'10 ryan garcia, was probably insecure around long tall ed

Yeah I was shocked to read 6'2 so it's bollocks then??

total bs, not even close. i understand adding an inch, but 3 or 4
