Eddie Hearn Labels Simon Jordan ‘The King Of Hypocrisy’



Eddie Hearn has continued to go back and forth very openly with Simon Jordan, calling the TalkSPORT pundit the ‘king of hypocrisy’ despite saying he’s ‘excellent’ at what he does.

In one of boxing’s more unlikely issues, TalkSPORT’s Simon Jordan and promoter Eddie Hearn have continued to disagree over Conor Benn’s recent doping movie. Jordan has been an outspoken critic of the Matchroom man’s handling of the event after it was learned his boxer had tested positive, while Hearn felt his words were somewhat crude. .

Benn’s promoter was asked if he would be on Simon Jordan’s show IFL TVa question stemming from his recent appearance on the breakfast show promoted by Laura Woods and Ally McCoist.

“I’m not just here to make Simon Jordan’s point of view. I think he did an incredible job, Simon Jordan, he’s amazing. I mean, it was a sad defeat but I think he is, on the whole, a very good poker player. I have no problem joining the program. Laura Woods personally contacted me to get me on the show, and Simon Jordan never contacted me. “

“I just got back from Australia, Mexico, I’m going to Abu Dhabi, Cleveland and somewhere else. I had one morning to go see the show and I moved on.”

Hearn went on to say that he felt Jordan’s reaction to the situation was harsh and that he was being hypocritical.

“I think he is particularly harsh, and in my situation, Simon Jordan would do the same. You follow protocol, you follow the regulator, and you wait for them to make a decision. Again, I think Simon Jordan is brilliant at what he does, and I’m sure I’ll be on the show at some point – in my day, not his.”

“What is he, King? What, I want to stay there and increase views for TalkSPORT by asking someone named the King of Hypocrisy? Not particularly.”

The promoter went on to say that, although their current relationship is only through the media, he knows Jordan and first met him about 20 years ago.

Whether or not they speak to each other face-to-face remains to be seen, but there doesn’t appear to be a slowdown in conversation through intermediaries.
