One of boxing’s former world champions and current main promoters in the sport gave his reaction to Chris Eubank Jr beating Conor Benn.
A fight that got people to pay attention in America and further afield.
Speaking on X after the fight, De La Hoya enthused:
“Beautiful fight! Both winners!!!! @DAZNBoxing”
Well said. Both fighters’ stocks will have went up a lot this weekend. Great gains in value again this weekend.
Another thing people are not mentioning, as well, is the fight sold out a major soccer stadium in Europe with over 65,000 fans.
Shows how much of a great place the commercial value of the sport is in at the moment, consistently growing daily as a product and sport worldwide.
