Kugan, you do the best interviews and make the absolute most of them. I think Eddie is pretty honest, it's all about money but he wants to see the best fights happen at the same time. Keep up the great work I think you are fantastic for boxing and give fans a great insight into 'behind the scenes' stuff that you never really hear about. Much respect
Fantastic interview - Eddie talking about breaking down the trust barrier. This kind of openess breaks down the trust barrier with fans. Wonderful. Fascinating. Even useful to me as a businessman to know you deal in such a fair and open manner. Well done Coogs
What I like about Kugan is he doesn't try to navigate an interview to a certain agenda, he just asks a pertinent question and lets the interviewee expand on it without interruption. As a result, you can get some fascinating insight in his videos. Hearn has really risen in my estimations for being open, honest and willing to break this all down.
Kugan almost always navigates to an agenda you muppet. When did you ever hear Frank Warren reveal the intimate details of his business model to all and sundry not to mention exactly who was present, who said wot to whom and how much and who got paid?Kugan always mentions:1. Warren when interviewing Hearn, and vice versa.2. Groves when talking to Froch3. Joshua when talking to White4. Brook when talking to Khan5. Eubank when talking to BJS the list is endless. IN court its called leading the witness and elsewhere, providing enough rope with which to do the hanging In other words after casually flicking a match into the powder keg, he just shuts up and lets his victim do the rest. Eddie Hearn is loose-lipped in the same girlish way as an Alex Ariza. Sure, he is riding high now with the backing of Sky but his fast and loose way of telling everything to anyone is unsustainable. Kugan really takes advantage of this weakness in Hearn which will surely come back to bite him hard in the bum.How do you think Warren has lasted so long in the game?Hearn is a good salesman but without his dad and this unpresidented relationship Sky dished out to him. He would have ended up as team leader in a Romford double glazing company.
+boza edwards I agree he does navigate to his own agenda, but it's the agenda of what 90% people talk about online, I don't think he's taking advantage of hearn. Hearn knows exactly what's happening, he knows the type of questions that will be coming his way. As Hearn said, this medium is not the corporate crowd, when commenting on his swearing, he knows his market and is getting people on the Matchroom gravy train by being transparent. Because he knows this approach is what people want, he sees the RUclips market for what it is and uses it. The reason Warren is still going is because he is a name, and he was successful and can still live on that success. Hearn is much more open because he doesn't screw people over as much as the other promoters. How many boxers hate Warren? I would guess a lot more than Hearn. Sounds like I'm a fan boy of Hearn, but hey this is how I see it!
2 sides to every story but I feel like Eddie is telling the truth here, a lot of insiders are saying that Eubank Sr is off his nut and he really acts that way.
Frank Stein He said it near the start of the interview...I agreed with what he said re eubank snr being difficult,which he should have already known,considering his dad managed him during the majority of his career,the hair comment was just my weird sense of humour,although it is true,no harm intended,no hidden meaning.Thought it was a great interview,explaining the planning surrounding setting up a fight etc...Hearn is doing good things for boxing,the interviewer is good also,he has great access to most of the top fighters in Britian...Great result today Crawford winning again,cheers from Australia.
hearn has messed up big time here, why he didn't have eubank senior carried in on a golden throne while everyone in the crowd is forced to their knees to worship his greatness then just keep things simple by giving senior the mic so he can commentate from the ring while he's refereeing and marking the score cards
Eubank Sr. cost Jr his fight with BJS too, when I saw him not talking to Jr in between rounds you could see it was all just a show for Sr. He could've been giving him his wealth of boxing knowledge and told him to step on the gas, instead Jr got "when you sit down make sure to bend your knees" and silence... he wanted to do the bullshit theatrics and Jr fell too far behind. He needs to ditch his dad.
Love the transparency with Eddie no other promoter sits down and talks the business like Eddie he's main reason British boxing is great at the minute! Great work guys!
Real good insight into what goes into behind the scenes. Very interesting, Eddie gets stick but he is a stand up guy what he's doing for British boxing is bordering on legendary. Keep doing what you doing brother!! ps big up Kugan!!
I seen interview with Frank Warren talking in interview in how much hard work the Eubanks are and all their crazy demands. How they never took that contest with all noise they have been making.. Eubank Jnr shit himself.
Best interview with Eddie by a country mile. Have a lot of respect with how Eddie handles things, and fighters are not getting short changed under the terms clearly explained in this interview. Fair play very enlightening.
This is how you conduct an interview. Ask a question! And keep your mouth shut, allow the answer to expand from the individual giving it. Also props to Eddie and his old man. What they have done for the fans has been brilliant over the years. 👍
I don't care what anybody says. I respect Hearn and the job he does as a promoter at Matchroom. He seems to do his job fair and square. I don't understand why people give him such a hard time (especially over social media, which is pathetic) when in this instance he has blatantly done everything within his power to make the GGG vs. Jr fight happen. People can say what they like, but until they are actually behind the scenes themselves and realise the pressures of deadlines, the political disputes and all other demands that are entirely out of his control then for me these will always be invalid and useless comments. This seems like a man genuinely exhausted from trying to give people what they wanted to only be frustrated and let down at the last hurdle. Like he said, its his reputation on the line, and therefore I know I would definitely do the same if I were in his position. I also don't blame him for getting the Brook fight so soon after either, fair play it will be a massive test for Brook moving up the weight classes but at least we are getting 2 elite level fighters that are going to give it their all no matter what, and we all know in the boxing world anything can happen. As a Brit I will be routing for Kell but have respect for GGG and wouldn't be too disheartened if Golovkin did get the win over him, he's a beast after all, and just the fact that he's fighting for the first time as a pro in UK should be enough for us to shout about, especially against one of our own. If the Eubanks want that fight so much it will happen in the future. They will just have to wait their turn. Good look Kell, a lot of respect for taking on the man nobody else will.
Probably the best interview about what it is to make a boxing match I have ever seen. Top work Kugan, and fair play to Eddie. Should be required viewing for anyone who wants to pass comment on boxing. I can see the situation and I hope Brook does indeed provide a challenge for Golovkin. Great work.
I love these interviews about how the business works! Far more interesting than a boxer bollocking on about how he's gonna knock someone out, this is how the world turns.
This is the best video you guys have done yet; very interesting and informative. Reading "The Hate Game" by Ben Dirs at the moment and a lot of what Eddie says sounds similar to bits in that book.
Really enjoyed this interview it gave a useful insight into whats involved in putting on a boxing show..My heart goes out to you Eddie I was feeling your stress when you described negotiations with 'English' lol... Keep up the good work bringing these big show to the UK..
I would say that this is one of my favorite interviews so far! Very insightful and incredibly interesting. You really have to feel for Eubank Jnr with his Dad making SUCH a mess of everything!
Wicked stuff Kugan and Eddie and no Eddie that stuff you was talking about is NOT boring, so interesting to find out what gets discussed in these meetings and how much control people want and also how you break down these events financially!
great interview! watched the full 52 minutes. Brilliant to hear such an open & honest opinion from Hearn. I salute you Kugan, you done good. intriguing for us fans to hear the details of how these events are put together
Superb interview Kugan. I see people bash Eddie on social media all the time, but he genuinely tries to make the fights fans want to see and put on a solid undercard. Well done for landing GGG to fight in the UK. Can't wait to be at the O2 for this!
Fascinating interview and a great insight, would love to see more interviews of EH talking about the business aspects, I was hooked from start to finish. Please please please do more interviews like this one!!! I also get the impression that Eubank senior still thinks he's the star of the show and good on Eddie for saying "enough is enough" besides, Golovkin V Brook is a much more interesting fight, can't wait!
Very good interview. Eddie keeping it real and explained it how it was... Frank warren did mention a few times in the past that the eubanks are a nightmare to deal with... Either way, its a win win for eddie, i believe GGG wins even though im a big Brook fan, but keepin it real, and the eubanks learn there lesson and take the fight for december with less of the drama this time round...
This is one of the most interesting videos you have done yet. This inside information is what really hooks people.
+Eddie Hearn Very interesting and dynamics on putting boxing show on. GGG vs Brook is going to be tough the guys a machine.
+Eddie Hearn this is brillant lol
Respect to Eddie Hearn for being so down to earth, honest and open
Top bloke

+boza edwards it's his opinion no need to be rude

Hilarious cause its true
+Eddie Hearn nice to take time to respond and value all us RUclips crowd. Credit to iFLTV they do such a great job..
2 sides to every story but I feel like Eddie is telling the truth here, a lot of insiders are saying that Eubank Sr is off his nut and he really acts that way.
Like the fact this was commented before you interviewed him
I agree with Eddie Hearn.I've followed boxing for nearly 40 years and it's true..."when you cut your hair shorter on the sides it looks longer on top"
I don't get it
Frank Stein He said it near the start of the interview...I agreed with what he said re eubank snr being difficult,which he should have already known,considering his dad managed him during the majority of his career,the hair comment was just my weird sense of humour,although it is true,no harm intended,no hidden meaning.Thought it was a great interview,explaining the planning surrounding setting up a fight etc...Hearn is doing good things for boxing,the interviewer is good also,he has great access to most of the top fighters in Britian...Great result today Crawford winning again,cheers from Australia.

Eubank will have the last laugh when he's enjoying a mega fight against Tommy Langford.
assuming he's being sarcastic lol
@wutup5566 he's having a laugh you muppet
Much respect for Hearn for sharing all this palava on IFLTV.
Eubank Sr. cost Jr his fight with BJS too, when I saw him not talking to Jr in between rounds you could see it was all just a show for Sr. He could've been giving him his wealth of boxing knowledge and told him to step on the gas, instead Jr got "when you sit down make sure to bend your knees" and silence... he wanted to do the bullshit theatrics and Jr fell too far behind.
He needs to ditch his dad.
I know what your saying but I get the impression from jr that he wouldn't listen he thinks he's a lot better than he is
This Interview is Legendary
Hearn for Prime Minister!! The public could do with the transparency
Eubank Sr tryna be mayweather you ain't got that power son
EDDIE HEARN is a very fair, smart business Man
fair? he sells most of the big fight tickets to stubhub touts.
+jamestoni evidence? not just blah blah on yellow pages - real evidence.
yeah brook,go up two weights and get your ass beat.but don't worry,it will line our pockets
Love the transparency with Eddie no other promoter sits down and talks the business like Eddie he's main reason British boxing is great at the minute! Great work guys!
i like how fast Fast Eddie does business,he got some Dana White in him!!!
the man kept it 💯 in this interview. .. 👏👐
You like assholes?
+chochopav you just can't be a pushover in this business
Eddie Hearn earned my respect after today ..
thx for the interview Kugan!!!
really good interview. You don't get this kind of stuff from anybody else love it. Well done kugan and Eddie for smashing it again!!!!!!!!!
Real good insight into what goes into behind the scenes. Very interesting, Eddie gets stick but he is a stand up guy what he's doing for British boxing is bordering on legendary. Keep doing what you doing brother!! ps big up Kugan!!
I sat and watched this whole thing straight through. It was a fascinating look at how these fights are put together.
Great interview, nice one for the detail
I seen interview with Frank Warren talking in interview in how much hard work the Eubanks are and all their crazy demands. How they never took that contest with all noise they have been making.. Eubank Jnr shit himself.
What an amazing interview . I couldn't see Don King doing this, Thank you and well done.
love watching these interviews
The section on the break down of the p p v split is absolutely class , good on you E H, English as lost the plot
Best interview with Eddie by a country mile. Have a lot of respect with how Eddie handles things, and fighters are not getting short changed under the terms clearly explained in this interview. Fair play very enlightening.
I believe this fight is a lot more competitive than most people think. Brook is a really good technical boxer with decent power.
great interview.
This is how you conduct an interview. Ask a question! And keep your mouth shut, allow the answer to expand from the individual giving it. Also props to Eddie and his old man. What they have done for the fans has been brilliant over the years.
👍
This is too funny!! I would loved to have seen that meeting with Eubank, Hearn and Sky.
Best interview on IFL TV ever
Best Hearn interview I've seen!

Great inside to this interview thank's Kugan.
Some great fights to look forward to,
Great! Very insightful! Thanks!
I was waiting for this ...thanks.
Eddie Hearn is great company! Very likable, and apparently honest. I hope we never find out otherwise.
Fantastic interview. Particularly the breakdown of cost vs. revenue and all that goes in to making a fight. Superb
great interview, props
Entertaining and informative video - one of the best yet.
IFL seriously need to get better equipment for sound. Apart from that love the channel/vids.
