Eddie Hearn hasn t made a lot of friends in the United States

DiBella is not the only promoter who has criticized the way Eddie Hearn operates. Hearn recently became embroiled in a high-profile battle with Leonard Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather Promotions. Ellerbe accused Hearn of wasting over a billion US Dollars of DAZN’s money without making a mark in America. Hearn replied by calling Ellerbe a nobody. Eddie Hearn then went on to say that he would like to sign Gervonta Davis in order to spite Leonard Ellerbe. Hearn : “I mean, if he’s not careful, if Gervonta Davis’ contract is up, I may just have to break the bank to sign Gervonta Davis. Just purely for entertainment. Can you imagine me standing there with Gervonta, going ‘How you doing, Leonard? How are ya boy?' " Watch Hearn sing about Ellerbe here: Bob Arum of Top Rank promotions has also taken to Hearn: "You know, he opens his mouth about anything. You ask him about the weather and he’ll blame it on Al Haymon. He’s f------- bizarre." Hearn has said Bob Arum and other US promoters who have criticised him are 'irrelevant' and 'washed'. Hearn believes that his rivals are jealous of him for making a mark in the US. Before the launch of Matchroom Boxing USA, Hearn used similar language to refer to Deontay Wilders' manager, Shelly Finkel. Hearn and Finkel were unable to come to an agreement for a bout between Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder Whilst it is rare to see major US promoters agree on anything, it is clear that they are all united in their for Eddie Hearn.
