Eddie Hearn has insisted he is sticking around boxing after a social media prankster managed to convince a number of fans he was retiring.
A Twitter user pretending to be talkSPORT reporter Michael Benson tricked fans into believing that Hearn was giving up his job as Matchroom Boxing boss, but Hearn has confirmed that it isn't true.
He was asked about the fake tweet during an appearance on the DAZN Boxing show, where he confirmed that it was from a parody account, which has since been deleted.
