    People call Eddie the silver spoon kid, probably always will. But you can't deny that he's carved his own path, massively expanded what once was a small regional boxing promotion into the new leading international promotion (since showtime have decided to close doors). But he's the perfect face of a promotion, personable, cutt throat, blunt, but not nasty. He has ten times more humility than his peers like Oscar De La Hoya, Bob Arum... Even Dana White has been downright evil and shady!
    Wonder when he'll manage to get Carra VS Neville signed though 😂

    Great interview again. Great insight in to another industry also. This is becoming more than a football channel but a great platform of entertainment.
