He told iFL TV: “I guess if you criticise it you’re a hater, aren’t you? “So I’m probably not the best person to ask because I love the sport of boxing. I find it incredibly sad, but it’s a big event, you can’t deny that. “But is he 60 yet, Mike Tyson? 58? Something like that. One of the greatest fighters that ever lived.READ MORE IN BOXING”But I’m one of a small per cent of absolute mad boxing lovers that it actually breaks my heart to see that.”Hearn was in Saudi Arabia at the time of the comments to promote Anthony Joshua’s fight with ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou.But days before AJ’s knockout win, the Matchroom Boxing chief expressed interest in Manny Pacquiao, 45, facing Conor Benn, 27.

It’s incredibly sad.Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson confirmed with ‘biggest fight of the 21st century’ to be shown live on Netflix “He spends more time speaking about other people’s business than he does tending his own.”Benn in 2022 failed two pre-fight drug tests before his would-be fight with Chris Eubank Jr, 34, and he has been fighting to clear his name ever since. He is currently without a British Boxing Board of Control licence after his clearance by UKAD was appealed. The BBBoC’s appeal with UKAD is ongoing with all parties believed to be awaiting a result. If UKAD refuse to overturn their initial decision, Benn will be free to box in Britain again.
