Wall Street memes Casino I’m fine and sports book this is cougan CES for iel TV why do you do that before you start every interview you go this it is it like I’ve got him I’m I’m resurrecting my platform it weren’t that bad what resurrecting your platform

On pip down son uh it wasn’t actually that bad getting old of you this time took me four days I didn’t drive you man too much it’s a bit of a yo yo yo what about when I posted last night in the gym at the office and you go wait wait

Wait you’re here you’re in the country I thought you was going to America I’ve been in America I thought you going back to America I I was in America I just in Africa as well some point Frank was in Africa um yeah no I was in America and got back

Yesterday and I’m think I’m going back to America trying to make the ray Ford fight on Saturday um and then go straight to Riad for the snooker re season World Masters of snooker of which you’ll be at I’m going to come never been to Snooker in my life I’ll

Come good and then um ready for the big one knockout chaos squeaky bum time great card as well seen it all announced in its fruition and um feeling good mate great to see you after a great trip to Orlando and then New York and now back with the

OG absolutely um let’s talk about the promo video I mean do you have any idea I seriously because I was generally interested in like how much that cost to put together like it looks absolutely insane but all of them do to be fair do you know what I think there’s always the

Perception that Saudi Arabia just have you know an unlimited pot of money and they just throw money at everything but there is so much more of a strategic plan there is very smart people involved and it’s so surreal like when we did the day of reconing card I went to his excellency’s house

And all of this stuff is his brainchild right so everything you see in terms of the way that the promos are set shot um the theme right so the zombie theme for Day of Reckoning and when we was in um Riad last time for the Day of

Reckoning we sat down and the promo for AJ against Wilder was knockout chaos right so but he’s so enthusiastic so you sit down and he says right let me tell you about the promo and the idea for Joshua Wilder and I’m like right and he says knockout chaos and I’m like right okay

And then he says it Street Fighter the promo is going to be but you know and they walk down the street and they bump into each other and they turn round and then it cuts into the game and I’m thinking what I mean firstly how have

You even come up with this idea secondly and then you know his creative teams there and they’re talking about how it’s going to be shot and how much time they’re needed obviously Wilder gets beat and then it’s in ganu knockout chaos same strap applies and

Once you see it come into I mean it’s like a fullblown Hollywood movie you see how many people were on the set like extras I was laughing yesterday about when we did the Day of Reckoning there was a bloke who was one of the extras who was

My ashray I don’t know if you’ve seen it but basically when I was on the the desk smoking a cigar there was a guy who actually auditioned for the role to stick his head through a hole in my desk and go and be the astay that I’d put my

Cigar into like all these people are are obviously actors but in on that particular promo there was like hundreds of people on the street it is unbelievable and I said um in an interview when I was in America with obviously more reputable channels um I said I can’t wait to get back out

There because and I’m not just saying that one I mean the word was fantastic the hotels the food but the energy of what they’re doing I know that when we’re there so much more is going to happen next week for the world of boxing

Obviously we got the 5 by five we got to see how that plays out looks like an announcement I think on the Saturday after the show like future fights if AJ wins does he fight hergovich doeses he fight the winner of usyk Fury what else is happening what’s happening for rad

Season next year when’s the next snooker tournament it’s it’s amazing and the promo was just mind blown absolutely mind blown ever seen anything like it in fact I think we’ve got one of the best content people in Alex hes who’s our head of content he you know who has been

Putting together some unbelievable promos from him recently he’s probably watching that going come on guys up the budget but that’s just Next Level [ __ ] how much of that is actually AI generated none of what well I mean other than obviously the computer stuff but everything is shot in person

Like did you see the usick fury PR hold on one second hello yeah speaking how you doing ju just picking this back up here no what it is no no I thought that was a wind up I thought you cuz you picked up the phone mid interview I thought what’s he done here

He’s got someone coming on is it the tattoo bloke is it chisora or something I don’t know what what was it no I’m having a do a a dining table delivered today but it’s they told me that they was going to ring me and if I missed a

Call then like cuz they I told them to give me an hours no they’ve just they’ve just rung me and I had to answer it because they just told me the time that they were coming I I can’t imagine you on a dining table it’s a lovely dining table to be

Fair imag you on a dining table why what do you think I’d do like sit on the street I just can’t imagine you cooking dinner or I don’t cook dinner to be honest getting a deliver and sitting down on a dining table going oh hello just going to enjoy my dinner I can’t

Imagine you doing that where where do you think people eat food then just not just me but just in general like where on on your lap I don’t know I live on mine I don’t really cook but that’s about to change um Eddie let’s go back to um quite an

Eventful seven days obviously for yourself could we talk about Ryan Garcia yeah um yeah I mean we’ve seen a few posts going about over the last of day or so um your thoughts I mean I think Ryan’s behavior is quite erratic to be honest with you like and I

Don’t know what’s going first of all by the way I really like the guy I think he’s you know we get on really well so I’m don’t want to say too much to to knock him but I do think his behavior and his mannerisms at the press conference and just what I see

On social media um and obviously last night with the what do you what do you kids call it these days the weed The Joint I mean I don’t know what M I have no idea what you’re talking about well not a vape you mean no have you seen the

Picture yeah I seen the picture yeah yeah whatever it’s doobie I know the Mary Jane yeah yeah yeah yeah um kids don’t do drugs no well definitely don’t and I think he just did didn’t seem himself at the presser if I’m honest I think that I’ve been around a lot of

People and a lot of Fighters that I’ve seen go through problems And I’ve never been wrong when I thought to myself I think this person’s got an issue here and I I think you know there’s a few particularly and I don’t think they’ll mind me talking about it because you know it’s a valuable lesson and one was Scott Fitzgerald and another one was Amo

Williams who you know thankfully has come through the other side has you know has done brilliantly well but I just noticed mannerisms around them and this wasn’t you know ammo nothing to do with substance and stuff like that but just you just see see something changing them mentally emotionally in their behavior

And I saw that in ammo and obviously I saw it in Scott and they’re both very two different situations and I think I see it in Ryan and I do worry I mean forget the fight like I hope he makes the fight and but he really needs to get into training

Camp and I I I’m worried about the people that he’s got around he’s not even responsibility but what I saw in the last few days and obviously what came last night is is erratic behavior and erratic behavior stems from something you know it’s you don’t just all of a sudden

Start doing when have you ever seen him behave like this before when have you ever seen him do that before it’s completely un Ryan Garcia so what is steming that and the other thing I’ll say about about and this is important actually for especially kids and and athletes and

Everything and this might not be very popular with some people but I think that weed really is a bad idea like I think people think that you can smoke weed and it’s legal and everything but I cannot understand for the life of me how you think it’s okay to smoke weed all day

When you wake up in the morning like and I know that some people use it for therapeutic reasons and by the way this is only my opinion before anyone at home starts get what is he talking this is my opinion I’ve seen people start smoking

Weed and think it’s great oh this is and then next thing is something else next thing it’s MDMA next thing it’s Coke next thing is and I just think it’s a dangerous dangerous slope and I’m not saying this about Ryan gar but I just think in general I don’t

Think that putting that kind of stuff in your system away from the therapeutic side can ever be beneficial for your mind and your mindset and actually focusing on what you’ve got to achieve especially as an athlete and this isn’t a knock on people that smoke because whatever it’s your

Own but I just do not believe that you can be 100% mentally laser focused especially in a job like boxing if you’re doing that and again this is not on Ryan Garcia this is just in general so my advice to Fighters out there who actually do smoke weed is I think it’s a

Terrible idea I really do and that’s only my opinion as a 44 year old balding fat man but yeah I I I I do worry about Ry go Behavior I do I know does have have you ever tried it weed yes yeah what yesterday or no it’s the

Only drug I’ve ever tried and you can lie detect to me on that and I’ve see some of your interviews going oh he no never ever but I did you smoke not a lot but yeah like went to to them a couple of time oh no actually no that was a

Hash cake when it but they told me it might have had a bit of acid in it absolutely lost my marbles in Amsterdam once scared the life out of me so I went into this bar in Amsterdam I think I was about I don’t know 20 yeah early

20s and I was with my mate Spence and Danny as two of my best mates and we was in Amsterdam and I went into this bar or Cafe whatever it was and it just said like cakes on the thing and it had like this sort of I think it was like ja

Japanese right Chinese writing I don’t know what it was anyway I went yeah I went um can we get three of those cakes please and the guy went oh no just uh just get one and then just share it between you and I went no no well just

Give us three and he went seriously don’t have three and thank the lord we didn’t have three so I bought one of these cakes and we just ate it right went out for a Chinese like I’ve never laughed so much in my life it’s just people walking past and I it

Uncontrollable laughter right anyway after that went to some bar and I’ve come out the I’m in the toilet and I’m like like it’s almost like strobing and I’m like what and the floor is going like this and I’m like and where I haven’t done anything like that before I

Just I think if you’re going to do that kind of stuff you just got to let it go haven’t you you’d like just go with it I’m like holding onto walls anyway I’ve gone outside Spence was waiting for me outside come out I’ve gone up to him

I’ve grabbed him he’s turned around he’s gone to me oh mate I went where’s Danny went outside Danny is just walking up and down like a zombie on the street we were flying home that night so anyway we’re trying to I’m we’ve gone to get a drink

Of water I’ve got a drink of water there as I’m going to get it the water’s going like this up and down away from me I can’t even pick up the water get a cab to the station Danny’s up in the front Spencer next to me he’s going oh I went

What’s the matter he went Can You Feel the fireworks going off inside you I was like no and Danny’s in the front telling me how bad the war is and all these houses is derelict I get to the airport looking for my gate to check in I’ve

Looked up at the screens you know the the boarding gate all of a sudden this screen sprouted two legs it’s come down it’s going pop pop pop and it’s landed on my shoulder I’m like this man it it’s the most terrifying F thing I’ve ever done I’ve sat on the EasyJet flight home

To staned took me about 2 days to get over it from that day never touched anything ever again and that’s my story for any kids out there but it was quite funny we do laugh about it the time but I don’t like to be like out of control you know like

I’d go to a club and have a drink and like used to get hammered but I don’t even drink anymore I don’t even like getting hammered like falling around and not being able I’ve never seen you like even socially smashed ever but I I never got I never got you would have never

Seen me walking around like falling over and stuff like it’s embarrassing but I used to get I used to have a good drink but not now no interest you’re an athlete no but I just it makes me feel awful but anyway I don’t know where we

Tangent it off on my Amsterdam story but yeah drugs uh don’t do them you know the thing is about drugs this is what I tell you about cocaine right right the problem with cocaine this is why I’ve never ever and I swear I’ll swear on any

Never touched it in my life and one of the reasons that I’ve never touched it is because it becomes a norm you know what I’m saying like people will just go out and do it like it’s just a regular it’s like having a beer and I don’t want

To be in a position where you’ve got to stop doing it you know or it becomes a thing and again nothing against people that do it everyone’s got entitled to own opinion but not for me mate never been a thing for me and I’m and even

When people around me were doing it all the time I would always say n and the night would change you know we we turn up at 9:00 have a right laugh till about midnight and then I’m just like basically on me own thinking what’s

Going on here went to a club once in uh mikos oh mate black coffee you know that night it’s like a club night it was the worst and the next day everyone’s going that was unbelievable that club when it I was thinking I left I went and got a chicken

Sha at half 10 terrible okay anyway just Eddie just I’ve got I’ve got loads of knowledge I can give young people I really have I don’t I don’t doubt that I don’t doubt that um obviously the basis around this obviously was a we Cut That B he went on

For about 10 minut absolutely not we we’re raw mate we Eddie her brutally honest here um obviously the concern you have is about Ryan Garcia and his well-being and um his health more so but do you have a concern about that fight taking place with Haney I think when when someone behaves

Like that always but look it’s April 20th the guy’s training the guy’s fit if they can get him into Camp I think it’s fine but what you don’t want to do is like the whole thing is wild like you know you need the right people around

You it I can’t stress how important it is because there are so many and I don’t think his relationship with obviously with golden boy is particularly tight you know who’s his manager he’s got all these people around him you know Ryan Ryan yeah right like you know he’s a celeb isn’t

He and I just think that world just Ryan yeah Ryan you know turns up it’s got the flares on you know I mean he’s a good-looking boy isn’t he turns up he’s sitting on a throne he’s got women throwing petals over him I’m watching this game what on Earth is going on here

And he’s and you know he’s jumping up and down jumping up and around and then You’ got Devin who’s just like the complete flip side you know Devon is everything you should be in a fire completely dedicated to his craft mentally completely tuned in on what he needs to do in his

Preparation what he needs to do in his ring in the ring what he need to do in his career and I just know that Deon is going to turn up 110% every time and he will be concerned de because your training really with thinking is this

Guy actually going to make the fight and I hope he does I’m sure he will but it is a concern you know for sure do you know what while you were talking for the last five minutes I kept glaring because I’m pretty certain when I was here last time that picture of you

And Canelo wasn’t there it might have been somewhere else but it def always come down that wasn’t there last time never come down I promise you I’ve never even when he left me it never came down what maybe you moved it I don’t know no it’s always been there it’s all even

When we parted we we didn’t even really part ways but even when he took another fight with the PBC I always kept my Canelo Alvarez picture up so don’t start saying that just because we might work together again I popped him up in the back of a photo interview I’m not that

No I’m not saying he did that I’m just saying soon as like the last week maybe you got it out of the draw I don’t know no no is he coming homeed um look I think I’ve seen I I over the last couple of days have had so many people

Messaging me oh congrats getting Canelo back no not yet at all um I went to see cell recently we spoke we speak most days in the last couple of weeks um there’s nothing agreed there’s nothing signed but I think we’ve got a great chance of of working with him again um it would

Be an honor like think the guy is an absolute Legend as a fighter as a human being and um I would love to do his fighting May and September and for the rest of his career really I think you know I think he enjoys working

With us and and um hopefully we can make something happen for him in May is there more options to H mongia I get that right banga Benz for S yeah I mean we can bring anybody to fight s look the obvious fights to make through the platform are

Hing M gear and Eda blanga Eda blanger is the WBA mandatory ha mongia is a brilliant fight you know he’s just stopped John Ryder he’s a young Mexican very strong I think that and Ben aidz tremendous fight and you know I spoke to Samson lekovic last night and he said oh you

Know you said that um canelo’s never been offered a fight with Ben aidz I said no no can Ben aidz was never part of the PBC plan that they presented to him fact so and it really baffles me I find it very funny when people say oh canelo’s ducking like I promise you

Canelo will fight anyone Canelo fought bival at 175 right which he probably shouldn’t have done and got well beaten and he’s desperate to fight him again desperate to fight him again as a massive Underdog he has no problem fighting Benavides in fact that’s a kind of fight that would excite him but he

Had a plan with PBC that couldn’t be completed not his fault so now he’s looking at his options and he wants to fight in May it’s not going to be Ben aidz but Ben aidz can happen in September no problem but you know one of the problems and I said this the other

Day in an interview with like the PBC guys is they won’t let their Fighters come and fight on an it’s so weird like so it’s it’s like if you’re with us you have to fight our guys and if you’re not with us we’re not going to let our guys

Fight with you but Ben aidz is apparently so desperate for the fight and you know I like Samson a lot and know Samson says oh we’ll fight him for free we you know all this kind of General stuff I said look if Canelo works with us we’ll make the fight with

Benavides and he went yes no problem just give us the US TV on Amazon I’m like what no mate if Canelo comes with us on des and Desa putting up the money for mongia and Banger and all these people Desa going to put up the money

For Benitas oh oh what mate you’re a challenger do you want to fight the king or you just only if it works with your promoter no so hopefully we can have a relationship with s where we plan out his next four or five fights and I believe that will include mongia Ben

Aidz bival balanga all these people look at the guy’s resume he’ll fight anyone and you know what he wants more than anything because I sat down I spoke to him in person he wants real fights he wants Wars he wants people that come to fight he was so pissed off with a Charlo

Fight the last one he’s like I hit him early on and he just survived for 12 rounds running around the ring he Saidi want people that come to fight me and that’s why mongar is a great fight even banga and of course Benavides these are people that will try and win

They’re young Fighters undefeated Fighters that will give him no respect and try and walk him down and have a fight with him that’s what s wants so if we can be a part of it it would be an absolute honor you’re optimistic though I think we’re I think we’re Front

Runners but again who knows like he’s going to talk to other people on I’ve always said on a Level Playing Field he will choose us every time but if he gets a great offer from someone else he might do something else but I think he knows we don’t mess

Around we don’t deviate from plans we don’t tell porkys we don’t wait to pay people we have funds and we are ready I think we always kind of saw that situation of Canelo returning to you at some point in his career whether it’s at this stage we knew it’s easy to say now

Isn’t it no so smart but listen when he did a three fight I said when he did a three fight deal I said who knows whether this is going to be a one-fight deal or a three- fight deal because you know boxing’s full of people that don’t

Deliver on Promises full of people that don’t deliver on promises and we’ve always tried to be the one that does deliver on promises and our reputation and our track record is second to none and the reality it is all these people have to go elsewhere sometimes for the benefit of their career some

Choose to go elsewhere they all either come back or they go there’s no one like you lot reality Canelo Alvarez he knows who the best promotional company is in the world Devin Haney when one Undisputed top rank came back there’s so many other Fighters even the fighters that have

Left you know will say to me I mean you look on another level but sometimes you got to do what you got to do for your career um but I’ve got the pajamas out I’ve dusted them down just in case I knew you’d put that picture away not the picture the

Pajamas and and they’re ready they’re ready for CCO de meire touchwood fingers crossed okay um right in Aven newes how we getting on with Connor Ben we’re good actually yeah Connor was in yesterday um and from about 20 Fighters that have called him out we have really targeted two

Three I think we’re down to four how many of those are potential pay-per-views in the UK obviously in I mean at some point in the next week two weeks we’re going to get the decision on the appeal if he wins the appeal which we believe he will he

Will fight in the UK on pay-per-view there you go so out of those four names you’re telling me Conor Ben versus ABC and D are all Pay-Per-View fights correct that’s strong correct I Like the Way Conor Ben is still going at it with tank Davis who just announced a fight with Frank Martin

Yeah but Conor was frustrated cuz Connor really wanted to fight gavonte and I said that’s a really tough fight but he’s like no I and he’s bigger than Javon and javante is a pound-for-pound great fighter but he really wants that fight he really wants that fight but

He’s not on the list of four and I’m not even going to tell you the list of four but that is what we’re down to now one is a huge huge name I mean one of the greatest fighters of Our Generation another one is just a massive

Massive state I fight another one is could be a fight for for the world Welterweight Title which is very very encouraging and the other one is a former two division yeah two Division World Champion big name so Conor is going to be in a massive fight next but

We just have to wait until we decide whether it’s going to be in America or whether it’s going to be in the UK more of your emails getting leaked online um I suppose you when you you’re writing these emails you have it all in mind that this could be the case but

What do what do you think about kind of the the gap between the 10 and the 25 which is why he was posting in the first place well I said he could make anywhere between 15 and 25 million fact if the fight does a million buyers right he

Would make $25 million I don’t think it does a million buyers but if it did I don’t know half a million buyers he probably makes $20 million but he doesn’t see tank the problem is is you got so many people in your ear in boxing who just don’t

Know what they’re doing tank should be controlling his own business having meetings with people and understanding the finances of how shows work because he owns the revenue now in these shows you know so just like Canelo Alvarez just like AJ he’s he’s that kind of star

But what happen is he just got people in his ear Eddie H man you don’t [ __ ] that guy he’s he’s going to do this he’s going to do that you can’t trust Eddie Hearn oh on what on What basis what on What basis can you not trust me speak to

Any fighter that we’ve worked with and and get them tell we’ve we haven’t delivered we never paid them we I mean it just doesn’t exist but people will get in people’s ears so and if he thinks he could can beat Connor Ben he should have had the conversation but yes you are correct

Every time you send him an email you know there’s a very good chance he going up on Instagram in fact once off stuck it on me on an Instagram DM and I had to pipe up a little bit back just in case he posted it even though I was shitty

Myself I was going to go I’m sorry Javon but I thought no he’s just going to repost it I was like oh mate listen don’t talk to me like that g twice the size of him yeah but he’d still kill me um K saland making some comments yesterday to say that potentially a

Fight there for chis bank with Kell Brooke what what’s your thoughts on that I think they’re just saying it because they’re going to come round for the Conor Ben fight what why would you fight Kell Brook for less than half of the money that you’d get to fight Conor

Ben makes absolutely no sense Jan Beck was also mate as if they’re going to fight Janet Beck for a fifth of the money that that they’d get to fight Connor Ben what a kazak middleweight who’s an absolute huge 160b Beast versus a 147 that apparently can’t knock anyone

Out anymore I mean I actually nearly messed you bank this morning cuz I was driving and I was like because I was thinking you know all being well with the appeal we would be able to go to Conor Ben to Chris Ubank and say you know May June Wembley

Stadium Spurs wherever mate it’s right in front of you and I was actually thinking how mad is it this and this is another example of people that either get poor advice or have people around them that they and and by the way that’s not kala because kala knows this is the

Fight to make kala must be smashing his head against a wall every day speaking to you B I just can’t believe what’s happening here I was going to message him this morning which is kind of irrelevant now because we were talking about it on iel but I was just going to

Say mate am I missing something here like why what what are you doing he’s got people going around the Middle East talking to people like there’s no interest someone said oh yeah maybe Canelo fight come on and you’ve got the biggest fight of your life right in front of

You 147 pounder who you’re saying is small can’t punch can’t do this for the most amount of money you could ever make and ever dream of it’s just it’s baffling I actually said to Connor Ben yesterday I said I reckon Chris Eubank is Junior is the only person that I

Could sit in that chair here in theice office and not talk sense into I think he’s just beyond help in that respect like every other fighter I believe I can explain the situation just say mate like you have to take this fight like if I’m representing Chris

Eubank Jr and ker is a y know good talker smart mind great promoter is’s my mate he must be G mental because I’d be sitting down with Chris going like this is if I represented him and going mate I what are you doing you have to sign this

Fight like what you you’re a massive favorite in this fight you can have a stadium fight make so much money and I think you’re going to win but and he just s there it’s like oh mate so you know has has Canelo ever mentioned Eubank to you

No I don’t even know thinks he knows who he is I me definitely got to know you bank is he might he look Canelo would love to fight in England I’ve looked at it 100 times the numbers it you’re so far out on the numbers that Canelo Alvarez wants

It’s actually impossible unless it’s a big it’s can’t even be a us name unless it’s a fight that does big numbers on us pay-per-view with all due respect Canelo against Chris hubank in the UK is not the one right but I don’t I don’t actually mind the fight I’m not sure now

But I didn’t mind it in the prime because I think Eubank Jr had a great chin back in the day but I don’t think he does now but anyway I wish him all the best he’s just me I said to Connie yesterday because I refuse now to talk about you Bank Junior

In our meetings Frank’s dealing with that anyway and I just said M I’m not going to talk about it but because when I hear the brook stuff I go I think they’re up to something there because like why would you fight Kell Brook over Conor Ben like for half the

Money it’s just ridiculous doesn’t make sense but we shall see so just a quick couple of updates on your latest assault on everyone um well just what’s the last one Kean Davids and obviously um not well is because you go public you go it’s almost like you’re publicly going these people

Like I’m not saying it’s a bad thing I’m saying that and Andy Crow yeah I have promoted key sha Davis more than any anyone has ever promoted him I don’t even represent him I mean he should be happy that I’m talking about him all the

Time by the way I say again just like I say with Ryan Garcia fine young man Kean Davis really have a lot of time for him I think he’s very entertaining he’s a tremendous fighter but there is absolutely no way in the world that he could beat Andy

Cruz no way it’s like your Nemesis you know like when you’re at school and you might be a I don’t know say you’re having like a game or table tennis right and there’s always that one kid and every time you you play a game with him you go

Just he’s just got my number that’s Kean Davis against Andy Cruz and they’ll never fight him unless it’s a massive fight but Kean Davis who who Kean would fight him cuz he’s a fighter and that’s what they do he tweeted and said make me an offer after the fight

Then I thought great great and then when I looked 10 minutes later he deleted it so he got a phone call and they went please stop talking about Andy Cruz and we’re not fighting him so just stop khaw he got told off and asked him to

Put the Tweet back up but he didn’t do it we will fight you on ESPN we will fight you on Headline on Doone and we will make the fight next but you will not fight him you will fine but you will not be allowed you will not be

Allowed Doan Smith Adam Z any development or this is the most embarrassing thing I mean you know I said the other day on boxing social you know the fight has been ordered by the British boxing Board of control for the British title and by the Ebu for the Europeans

Out and then I see an article saying Adam aim says he’ll fight Kean Davis at Wembley Stadium on pay-per-view and I’m like what’s going on here something up because I was thinking like the only way those two could fight at Wembley Stadium on pay-per-views as I said in the

Interview the other day if they were on 20 minutes before Taylor Swift that that the fight’s been ordered what you don’t have to talk about anyone else you don’t have to talk about Tia Fimo Lopez Kean Davis I saw Harlem mubank why are you mentioning these people the fight

With dton Smith has been made and I keep saying because I hate the fact that our Fighters get messed around because they leave it to the wire all the time yeah and it becomes worse and worse and worse this is actually really bad advice for Adam aim as well

Because this is going to be come really embarrassing the longer you leave it and they will not fight dorton Smith by the way dorton Smith fights Jose zapa on March 23rd it is a really really tough fight like levels Beyond where Adam aim is boxing his career and again Adam aine

Tremendous fighter great like future star of of British boxing they won’t risk a fight with dorton Smith he’s not ready but they haven’t even pulled out yet and the long they leave it like and and this is where people are a little bit inexperienced people who are

Representing him is like and okay and they don’t really know what to do what they should do is they should come out and they should go we’ve spoke as a team we’ve decided not to fight dlon Smith at this point because we feel like it’s too early for

Adamine but they won’t they’ll go oh no what it is we got this opportunity to fight for the WBO glob GL International Continental Regional Championship against is that belt no against zanet slum off and you know and we’re going down the WBO route or something I like just [ __ ] make the

Fight or get out the way go away don’t talk about it anymore because it’s going to be embarrassing so just and I keep asking you your merry men and all the other bods right when are you going to ask these people are you going to fight Adam

Asin uh dorton Smith are you going to fight are you talking about questions to promoter Ben Shalom yeah well I’ve asked for an interview with Ben Shalom which I haven’t had a response back from but yeah don’t say that I haven’t I haven’t been front of Ben to ask him to

Be fair or Adam or Shane or whoever it is and say can we just clear can we just clear this up now are you going to fight Dort Smith next or are you going to pull out I’d love I’d love I’d love to see their response well at some point these

Questions are going to be fired to funny right how can they not do an interview with you what I I text Ben a few days ago for an interview but I didn’t get a response but yeah I don’t know maybe he’s busy I don’t know but at some point I will be

In front of Ben so there’s no reason why me or any other platform wouldn’t ask him that you will go you know I have to ask you is Adam aine going to pull out of the fight with dlon Smith well you know um we all sit down

As a team and we will make the decisions you know Adam wants to be on the biggest platform you know Adam wants to be on the biggest platform so but no no no listen to what I’m saying we’ll do the fight on Sky no problem right it’s a

50/50 per split just pay dton the same as Adam aim or whatever and I’ll top it up it’s not a problem but don’t use that as an excuse you can put it on the biggest platform out there because that’s only where Adam Z boxes but yet

We want to work with all promoters in the best interest interest of the sport secondly yeah um you know we’ve got a lot of options on the table at the moment uh now you haven’t you’ve been ordered to fight dorton Smith by the way great for dton Smith

Because one I mean he’s got to take care of Jose zapa but when Adam aim pulls out the fight with dorton Smith all the promo that Adam aim is getting they’re basically saying he’s not good enough or ready to fight dton Smith what does that make dton Smith if Adam aim is this

Massive Superstar ready to Take On The World DN Smith is a superstar ready to Take On The World especially if he beats Jose Zita anyway love Adam aine love the mcwiggins stop [ __ ] around pull out the fight that’s it okay one week tomorrow oh are you [ __ ] yourself seriously I am I’m

Excited is I think um you see how hard he was e yeah did there was a floor in this correct from I wrong right so he said he will pay $10,000 or whatever did he who and gar beat that yeah but the top score on that is triple N9 yeah I might be

Wrong here but how’s anyone going to beat it anyway that’s as far as it goes that’s why I bet 10 grand um so am I nervous yeah I’m nervous I I was nervous about the autoing fight but this guy’s a little bit different because he’s unpredictable you know like I know

We’ve got 10 rounds of footage now but he’s massive is he he’s massive and he hits very hard and he’s very strong but I still stand by AJ should be much too good for him should break him down should beat him up but there is there is

Part of you know like in the street fighter you know like when he gets hit and he goes and then keeps coming forward like you don’t know cuz Fury never hurt him so when AJ hits him clean on the chin maybe it just bounces off him or

Maybe he gets knocked spark out but it’s it’s King Kong against Godzilla it’s two immovable objects and when they come together at the weigh and you see them standing next to each other it is going to be massive next Friday great card um can’t wait I can’t wait for the event I

Just want to pick up on some comments that Joshua actually made with an interview with Sky Sports um they were asking him about uh Tyson Fury and deont Wilder he said I’ve signed to fight Tyson before I’ve signed to fight deont Wilder I’ve signed

To fight a lot of people I don’t duck a challenge I’m always up for it I’ll always be here and ready to fight anytime he’s going to get a lot of questions next week in relation to Tyson Fury I’m assuming what he said is true he signed

A contract to fight Tyson Fury Tyson Fury I say he pulled out the fight I mean he he Tyson Fury didn’t didn’t sign a contract and couldn’t fight because he had the arbitration with Deontay Wilder that’s not our fault AJ signed for that fight AJ signed to fight Deontay Wilder

Deontay Wilder lost I don’t know what else you can do he’s fought everybody that’s ever been asked of him and I just hope he wins next week in style and moves on and I do believe that if and when he beats Francis and ganu I really hope Ty and fury beats

Usyk I love usk and I love Alex and I love those guys but I want Fury to win that fight because if Fury beats usk and AJ deals with anano in start I know his Excellency is just going to turn around and say my God but I know there’s a

Rematch claw later on but guys we have the biggest fight in the history of the sport right here on our laps let’s make the fight and if not we’ll fight hergovich for the ibf title and then fight Tyson Fury or whoever wins that fight so one of the reasons we took the

Enanu fight is because his Excellency told us that if we win that fight we will get an opportunity to fight for Undisputed and that’s what we’ve always wanted is Fury expected to be there next week I believe so yeah I think his brothers fighting on the card as well as

Yeah Roman Fury’s so um okay and then I suppose once next week’s out the way it’s kind of looking towards May the 18th and yeah sa yeah June yeah about Saudi yeah yeah so obviously March the 8th and then May the 18th Fury usk um quite a few of our boys

On there Joe Cina Jo payre Etc and then June the 1st which is better be at bivo and the 5v5 yeah how close you to or have you finalized all the fights on the card yeah we me and George have been speaking a couple of times a week we got

Some great matchups lined up we’re going to speak to his Excellency when we get out there early next week run through the plans obviously as well we don’t want to cement fights because there has to be a little bit of you know surprise who’s it gonna be

Exactly and and I think we’ll either announce the weight classes next week or we’ll announce the fights next week um but there will be news of the 5v5 next week and there will be a press conference in London either the week after or the week after that with all the fighters coming

Together to confirm the 5v5 tournament it’s going be mad isn’t it it’s funny because um like we we both want to win really badly so we sometimes we’re talking about fights and it’ll be like a fight where one of our guys is a massive Underdog massive Underdog and

I’m like you they’re what about that I’m like no and then I might say what about Andy Cruz one against one of your lightweights oh uh no no you know so we need to just make sure that obviously we want every fight to be a 50-50 matchup

And I want to be screaming and shouting at ringside for every single fight we’re desperate to win both of us and um I believe it’s Frank Warren’s birthday today it’s yesterday actually was it all right okay happy birthday Frank look forward to seeing them all next week

Sing it really shouldn’t it really to Frank no you m should sing it really just happy birthday it’s not like I’ll sing it I’ll sing it in Riad have a nice bit of dinner um Taylor catell sold out should have gone bigger listen I mean as if Sam Jones

Wasn’t annoying enough I mean told you I told you I I always believed it would sell out leads not that what was your reservations about it then the fight the rematch about yeah no look this this is a situation so this is a situation they’re both making a lot of

Money from the fight right the kind of money that would suggest this is a Pay-Per-View fight with all the pay-per-views that happening at the moment Doone felt that this fight should be part of your subscription on their platform don’t forget we’re not looking to do loads of pay-per-views we want the

Pay-per-view nights as part of your subscription giving subscribers unrivaled value for money the problem is it’s very expensive purses continue to rise the Saudi Invasion means that you know these Fighters want to fight out there they know what he’s getting he’s getting so I didn’t think we could get it done on the

Zone I said to Sam Jones go out there and talk to other broadcasters get offers find out who wants to do it anyway they all come back multiple offers the the well publicized one was sky sky said um you know boxer Ben Shalom Chase Sam Jones we’ll do it we’ll do it on

Pay-per-view you know and Sam we agreed contractually had to come back to us let us know the offers and then I’ll put it to toone so Sam had to tell us the offer from boxer and I went back to the Zone I said look Sky want to do this on

Pay-per-view so do other platforms I think it would be a tremendous statement if you put this fight on non Pay-per-view on theone the buildup is going to be brilliant you’ve got I mean like you’ve already got the best fights in boxing you’ve got Fury usk you’ve got AJ andaru

You’ve got Haney against Garcia now you might have Canelo Alvarez back if you can add something like Taylor catel as part of your subscription I think it would be a great look for fight fans and thank you very much big respect to them they said I think you’re right we’ll pay

The money and we’ll do it non pay-per-view I thought wow that’s fantastic I might be popular for a 24 hours then Josh Taylor didn’t want to do the fight in Manchester Jack catell didn’t want to do the fight in Glasgow we went to the biggest available Stadium which was leads holds

11,000 and we sold out in a couple of hours I’m unbelievable I mean we nailed it the fighters nailed it our social nailed it the Zone nailed it the Press tour nailed it the promotion was Flawless and it just goes to show you how successful the sport can be when you

Get the matchups right so April 27th in a soldout leads arena live on the zone as part of your subscription we’ve got an all British classic buildup was very good reminded me of the quck Frampton buildup hey bellu es um yeah and I know always moan at you

About the UK pay-per-view thing but very happy that this isn’t I mean yeah actually that’s a good point you know like that’s a good point because you keep teasing me going oh when are you going to do a UK pay-per-view when are you going to do a UK pay-per-view if

That fight was on Pay-per-view you wouldn’t have even moaned and You’ have gone oh well done Eddie’s done a a UK pview but rather than charging additional money theone have paid up the money as part of your subscription and now it’s like huh huh haven’t done a pay-per-view I can’t

Win you know what I mean I think regardless of what you know what I mean you will get a UK pay-per-view I believe before the end of June there you go but you’ve also got Fury AJ and garu pay-per-view you’ve got Haney Garcia which would be free for UK subject to danone’s decision

Um you’ve got Fury usk to Zone pay-per-view so fantastic that Taylor Catal and by the way Smith Sepeda brilliant card March 23rd Gil against Barrett great card April 13th mix that in with the other schedule as well and um we’re flying we just need to nail a

Nice big UK fight for May and June and then we’ll be what we looking at Ed we look at Katy Taylor against Shantel Cameron any update on that is uh yeah we we’re talking to both teams trying to work the money out lee wood Josh Warrington I’m seeing Josh

Warrington tomorrow um yeah now you’re talking these kind of fights it’s not necess about pay-per-view but these kind of fights yeah now now we’re talking it just shows you when you get it right like Taylor catcher it works um what’s your plans for the rest

Of the day ab um I had a I was very jet lagged last night didn’t sleep very well I had a big session this morning um back and arms and then I’m just done this going to tidy up the Barnet and the beard I’ve got meetings at 2:00 I’ve got uh interviews at

3:30 Parsons he’s doing my nothing for a chat um Charlie wow Parsons yeah and then I’m just trying to sort my travel out for the next few days and I’d like to go to Ray Ford’s fight in um Turning Stone but like obviously we’re here riad’s here and New York’s all the

Way over here so it’s like but I would love to make it so I’m trying to make it work for to giving you a great show next week and don’t forget tune in as well for the snooker in R I can’t stop looking at that picture you not fatter there aren’t you

Especially yeah was a heavy there actually that was a great restaurant that was it was uh I think it was in Resorts World I was heavier because I think I drunk about a bottle of wine and and four massive Stakes but you know right I need some uh words of

Encouragement from you for a friend of mine if that’s okay okay so my friend Billy Lee who’s known as puds Billy puds Billy so he’s going to on the verge of becoming the first ever traveler to get a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu this is yeah

This is he’s under Dan baz shout out Dan baz from tsg and hoist Gracie um but yeah the first ever traveler to be a jiujitsu black belt I mean I know Jiu-Jitsu is really your for takers used to do it and that so what what would you

Say in words of encouragement Billy yeah I mean I would say to Billy Billy obviously coming from the mixed martial arts world we all know how difficult it is to finally secure the black belt in Judit um you know I was a previous uh Jiu-Jitsu and uh what Jiu-Jitsu that’s what we call

It okay I don’t know people will think there’s no such word as Jiu-Jitsu but within the industry that is the term um and I was also big in the samurai stuff as well so um Billy congratulations groundbreaking I hope you get it over the line and the only

Other thing I can say to you from the Jiu-Jitsu world is Namaste which has got absolutely nothing to do with jiu-jitsu either say about jiujitsu Jiu-Jitsu is one of the purest forms um I actually prefer Brazilian jiu-jitsu if I’m honest with you that was what I studied but I

Think that is more I think that’s a purer form a pure art of Jiu-Jitsu you have to ask Billy if he’s Brazilian Jitsu Jiu-Jitsu or traditional Jiu-Jitsu to be honest with you I find that the Brazilian jiu-jitsu uh are actually better as allr fighters in MMA Brazilian jiu-jitsu is one of the

Best qualities for a MMA fighter to to have that part might be actually true it’s all true okay of course yes um to become one of the best Jiu-Jitsu you have to have the all round you know schooling of jiujitsu schools and my one of my biggest

Problems was I focused too much on the Brazilian side and unfortunately um yeah I I actually got stuck at Brown Bel um so Billy go go one better than me son you could have just said good luck I’ve got one more Canelo question do you know I asked you about you Bank whether

Canelo’s mentioned about seen Jake Paul’s called Canelo out again has he ever spoke to you about that fight because I get a feeling he probably has Canelo yeah I think I think he’d find it quite amusing I’d like to see it but I think he’s got a few serious things to

Take care of first but I I wouldn’t you know if the deal’s right for S I wouldn’t rule it out going like him just turning up and having a laugh with it oh I’d love that how many buys does Canelo and Jake Paul do I just feel like Jake

Just needs a like to fight someone in the top thousand in the world or something like that and then like I will say I watch Jake on the pads he’s fighting this week is he I know like obviously people can look good on the pads but I think he’s quite

Heavy-handed and like he has been boxing for a while now so I I I do give him props for working hard in the gym obviously the Canelo fight is a step too far but if he if he actually had a couple of he just needs to fight someone

Like a real fighter and I think he could beat someone but who knows in this crazy world imagine what you said about inar before the fury fight and look where we are now son yeah that’s right all right Edward we will look forward to next week it’s going to be

Rowdy and Saudi see you in R did you call that a show Rowdy and Saudi no that was a show yours was it no no Clash on the Junes Clash on the Junes Edward thank you very much just want to sign us off and tell the
