    Kind of, yes.

    To Hearn and and Warren, the tournament wasn't really about trying to beat the other side. It was about keeping the Saudi's happy by making competitive match ups with outcomes that weren't easy to predict.

      50/50 means the fights are meant to be between evenly matched boxers. It's a simple concept.

        We see plainly why Hearn has always wanted pbc fighters. Problem is he got Wilder after wilder was damaged goods and at the end of his career. Hearn’s best fighters are guys like Haney and boots and I suspect we will continue to see him push for American pbc talent left out of the “big cards only” nature of the Amazon contract

          Matchroom shouldn't be embarrassed. The entire card was fantastic and it made for a fun event to watch. Showing the points between the two promotions in the top of the screen raised the stakes. It also made you want to tune in to the undercards and see them, so that you can see which side was gaining. It puts more value on the undercard and show as a whole. I loved the idea and hope they can continue to put together these type cards.

          Matchroom was part of something that could be a trend in the right direction in boxing. To make it more eventful to watch and add layers to the already ******** nature that boxing is.

          EDIT - Wow, the word "g @ |V| |3 |_ 1 N G got blocked? Of all the words Boxingscene chooses to block on this forum? lol.
