Eddie Hearn Brands Jake Paul “As an Extra Mouthpiece” for Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano

Eddie Hearn and Jake Paul organized a marvelous boxing event on April 30. The boxing fraternity witnessed an epic clash between Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano on that day. In a recent interview, Hearn revealed a shocking fact about the event where he claimed to use Paul for branding. 

In a recent interview with Behind The Gloves, Eddie Hearn discussed the dynamics of the event. The interviewer also had a query about Paul’s perception of contributing the maximum hype to this event. 

Subsequently, Hearn reacted to this query, and he sarcastically replied, “I have done nothing over the last 13 years. I mean, especially over the last 6 years to push women’s sport.”

Moreover, while describing the contribution of Paul, he said, “I mean, he was a big asset to the promotion. He doesn’t know what he is doing in boxing, but we didn’t need him to because we have a staff of 40 people.”

“We put the entire show on. We ran the whole event, but we used Jake Paul, as an extra mouthpiece, to create interest in the event and he did a great job.”

According to Hearn, Paul added an extra spice to the event. Even though Hearn could make the event successful by himself with his staff.

 Jake Paul, the promoter of ‘Most Valuable Promotions’

Apart from his fights and YouTube channel, Jake Paul also earns through his promotions.

Even though The Problem Child promoted his last event under the shadows of Matchroom Boxing, it marked a significant achievement for his ‘Most Valuable Promotions’.

Jake Paul started his company’s journey by promoting himself in the 4th match of his career. It was a good start for his promotions company by winning the bout against the UFC legend, Tyron Woodley.

After that, he went on to promote some notable events under him, which yield him a lot of money into his pocket. 

However, Hearn claimed to use Jake Paul to bring more light to the event of Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano. It is a good mark on Paul’s promotion company for a successful event.
