Why is Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn lies in Andy Cruz?

The Olympic Gold Olympic medalist Andy Cruz celebrates 30 years today, and does not yet have a scheduled struggle for its next contest.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn needs to accelerate Andy Cruz’s career and give him the same fast movement we are seeing for less talented fighters at 135 and in other divisions. Cruz is not given the same Royalties treatment of the golden path We see that Hearn provides the painfully bored to see Shakur Stevenson.

Comparing the paths of Cruz and Stevenson

Andy should deliver -the big fights than the least entertaining fighters like Shakur Stevenson are routinely provided by Hearn. Signed Cruz to Matchroom in 2023, and what has been done for Shakur since entering with Hearn in 2024. Why is this?

Cruz (6-0, 3 ko) last struggled on June 14 Hironori Mishiro in the fifth round in a light title deletion of the IBF. He had hoped to immediately challenge a worldwide title against the newly high IBF champion of Raymond Muratalla, but as a voluntary defense has been in his next fight.

There were reports of Cruz possibly confronting William Zepeda in November in Saudi Arabia. However, Cruz’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, from Matchroom, has said nothing about how to pursue this struggle.

If passed, it would allow the fans to compare Cruz’s performance with the volume Puncher Zepeda (33-1, 27 kos) to Shakur Stevenson, who had a massive problem by defeating him on the Turki Alralikh card on July 12 card Dazn PPV In Queens, New York.

If Cruz can do a better job to defeat Zepeda than Shakur, he will show the fans that he is the true king of the light division, not the strongly promoted of Newark, the Native New Jersey, Stevenson, who took place at the 2016 Olympic Games against Robeisy Ramirez.

Shakur made a unanimous decision of 12 rounds, but if the struggle was scored by the three judges as if it were an amateur struggle that involved only head and body shots were ignored. The numerous bodily traits scored by Zepeda do not seem to consider the score of the three. It was only the small number of header shots that Shakur landed.
