Controversial boxing promoter Don King has declared that Eddie Hearn gets too "emotionally involved" in fights after branding the 91-year-old a "dinosaur" in recent years.
King is one of the most recognisable personalities in the history of boxing, but doesn't stage shows as regularly as he used to after struggling to maintain relevance in the modern landscape of the sport. But his new signing of former two-weight world champion Adrian Broner has brought him back to the fore, with his latest event taking place in Miami last weekend.
Broner won his comeback fight in a lack-lustre display against Bill Hutchinson at the Casino Miami in front of a sparse crowd, landing a victory for the first time since 2021. And he will have a number of options going forward including Rolly Romero, Ryan Garcia and Hearn's charge Conor Benn, who is currently not licensed but is working towards a ring return.
