Sky counting the days until Boxxers contract expires. In 5 years people will google where is Ben Shalom now
Jordan Thompson fought Opetaia because he pulled Riakpohre out. Guys a melon man
Adam Azim was the European champion. He was ordered to fight his mandatory Dalton Smith. His team subsequently dropped the belt to avoid fighting Dalton, citing age and experience. They are now fighting Harlem Eubank, a man with more experience and older than Dalton Smith. These are all facts. No doubt people will still argue. A duck is a duck I’m afraid!! 🦆🦆🦆
Harlem eubank isn’t as good as dalton smith…. That’s why… it’s clear
This is Eddies Hearns burner account
@@chrisbax760 So a duck then 👍
@@chrisbax760 Good excuse
White fighters always wanna fight the easy route. Fury does the same. Dalton wants a kid who's coming up. Cowardly british as usual.
When ever I hear this bloke talk it makes me think I could be a boxing promoter
What’s your surname?
Talk is cheap
You shouldn't enable an alcoholic.
😂
Talk enough Bullshit and look the part you probably could!
Ben's voice sounds like paint drying
He sounds a sensible chap. There's no bravado there. Maybe that's why you think he sounds boring
@@deematty46are you his dad or something that guys an absolute weapon of a human
Cos he isn't spinning plates and shouting "APPLES AND PEARS"?
@@powpow9560 Simon is equally as much of a twat too.
What does paint drying sound like exactly, I’ve heard millions of voices but can’t place the sound of paint drying, I recognise the smell of it?
He was talking up the benefits of an all British title fight just before the subject about Smith vs Azim came up. The guy is all over the place 🤦♂️
That fight does not even sell out the o2 arena if they are smart let adam win a few fights and maybe dalton wins a world title it could then be a stadium fight
@@qasimmajid1772 Boxxer might not last that long. When is the Sky contract up for renewal?
@qasimmajid1772 it's a British title fight, no one's expecting a sell out at the o2
@@matthewturner8063 around this time next year I think.
@@qasimmajid1772 …but only if Ben gets to have it that’s the problem don’t you understand?
Keep this Irish bloke , he so straight to the point
You can’t introduce Ben as a top promoter 🤣
This guy has messed up the boxing on sky TV
Sure. You clearly pay no attention to literally last weekend being hailed as one of the best fights in years
@@jamesprynne1422 he's been at sky for over 2 years and your getting excited over 1 fight .come on mate he has killed sky sports boxing 🥊. The facts are the facts
Which fight??

Spencer "the nodding dog" Oliver
He offers nothing, infuriating
He is like a churchill dog lol
He kind of resembles Churchill😂
😂 so true
He's trash...Like Andy Clarke and Gareth A Davies.
How this guy is a promoter is beyond me. Zero personality and no interest listening to him. Every time I give him a chance to listen to him I just drift off 😴 as a promoter are you not meant to be engaging and sell fights and fighters🤷🏻♂️
Thats what Eddie Hearn says word for word. There are dozens of boxing promoters up and down the country but the most well known is probably Eddie Hearn because he does so much press and media interviews. Ben Shalom doesn't have to do any interviews because the Sky platform deals with all the media coverage and promoting the fights. I'm curious though why you watch his interviews if you find him so boring.
@@gatekeeperboxing5898 im interested in some off his fighters and sometimes have to listen to him to get updates on them. Also I listen/watch a lot of talk sport while working. I mentioned I listen to him rarely to give him a chance to change my mind, hoping he will be more engaging but never is. 🤷🏻♂️
So riakporhe got himself into mandatory position to fight for a world title but wasnt ready. Lol whats the point
Jai Opetaia would eat Riakporhe alive. Ben Shalom (and probably Richard Riakporhe) know this.

@@samr2332he also knows it about dton Smith he literally said that smith is the tougher fight so they want an easier eubank 🤦♂️😂🦆
@@fearassassin5207 Exactly. Do you remember when Boxers just fought other Boxers? Thanks to Mayweather, no one can handle a loss anymore
@samr2332 facts, given Richards now gonna fight CBS they made the right call. That fight he can win, Jai there's no chance
Frank gets tougher interviews from Dev and Eddie gets tougher interviews on the Matchroom own channel 😂
This was tougher than an Omar interview with Frank though.
@@RoadsideGee UMAR
Why didn’t they ask him why it took him so long to relinquish the belt if he had no plans to fight Smith?
Boxxer 🤡
Talksport so afraid to upset Ben they darent ask him the hard hitting questions 🤦♂️
They’re afraid to be labeled antisemitic because Ben is one of those “chosen people”
Sky’s the limit!!!
So he’s throwing the McGuigan’s under the bus 😂😂😂
He literally goes it was the Mc Guigans 😂😂😂😂
PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING AS EDWARD SAID!
Ben shalom the worst boxing promoters out there stop lying to people and just tell truth you dont want to work with macthroom and eddie
Ben has worked with everyone else. Ever notice its always one promoter that seems to have a "beef" with everyone else?
@@HisExcellencyBthere’s no “beef” Shalom just keeps pulling fighters out of negotiations
@@HisExcellencyB ben shalom keeps pulling fighters out whe its against a macthroom fighter
@@MalcolmTann0 Eddie's pulled fighters out and made them relinquish world titles before. He's clearly targeted Shalom now that he's been muzzled from saying anything about Frank. Needs his fix
@@HisExcellencyB which fighters have been pulled out of world title fights
What a load of crap Shallom is talking, Eddi's listed the fights they have pulled out of already and now he's been cornered live on air he's saying 'call me' 😂😂
Eddie should list the ones hes pulled out of next
Eddie has exposed him. Ben is drowning.
@@HuwEvans.Drowning in record viewing figures for boxing on sky
@@shitmonkyable What record was it?
@@shitmonkyable 4 out of the top 5 highest rated are Boxxer. Eddie almost had a seizure when he heard that 😂
Had laugh Intro here with top boxing promoter 😂😂😂
Sky makes people stars🤣......not since you've been there Ben! 2nd rate boxing now from a 2nd rate promoter.....Matchroom and Queensbury are in another stratosphere!
3rd rate even
Who the foooks canyelo 😂
Ben embarrassed himself again
Ben Shalom should hire a front man and he should just stick to the behind the scenes stuff. When he tries to bend the truth … he sounds ridiculous.
He has Simon Jordan as a front man.
I’m sure Ben had a black guy sat on the top table the first few times he was on sky .god knows what happened there
Why does he keep talking about "look at the frazer clark situation" as if its a great think they ducked Wardley for ages and got forced into a fight, insane how he's trying to make out it was a good decision to NOT fight. Man protects his fighters, and pulls out of fights, disgusting promotor we need less people like this and more people who want to make the fights.
Top boxing promoter? Where’s ed ?
Canyelo 😂😂😂😂. Who's that. Bloody casual
The man with no price has the highest of all.
My man Paddy said "Kenellio" 😂😂😂
"Who was Ben Shalom?".... the future pub quiz question no one can answer
Jordan Thompson only took the Opetaia fight because you Pulled Richard Riakapore out Ben and he wasn't a prospect in the typical sense as he was a lot older retired from boxing at one stage
THIS!
Ooft! A Ben Shalom interview. Time to try my absolute best to focus on what he says and stay awake.
If u didn’t rush him to become European champion, I would agree with u! But it’s his mandatory!
This is absolute rubbish! So now it’s about profile and money…the Smith vs Azim was MANDATED by EBU so you could have gone to purse bids and made sure that the fighters got paid what they are worth but instead (and not for the first time pulled your fighter out of purse bids). Also keeps talking about “in 4/5 fights time this will be a massive fight”…… in 4/5 fights time Dalton Smith has a good chance of being a World Champion and Eddie will literally wait until purse bids again because he knows he will win it. Also with Matchrooms current stable at 140 you will HAVE to let Azim box on DAZN! And Jordan Thompson has sod all to do with you pulling 5 of your fighters out of purse bids against matchroom. But he is 30 and wanted to test himself against the best….thats hardly being thrown in you Nob! Stop career failing fighters to protect your own job and investment…..it’s embarrassing!
Why didn’t he have Azim vacate the European belt straight away when he knew Smith was mandatory, and let both fighters take their different paths. I think all this drama could have been avoided.
All i can say is Ben shalom’s Pull out game is strong 💪
Ben Shaloms promoter Spencer Oliver
Spencer should be wearing a mask the way he’s stealing a living.
Spot on, credit to McAnthony sticking it on one of these shifty promotors!! In a nutshell, decoded, again it’s a business before a sport! Ps. Cracks me up seeing Spence panicking when someone threatens to blow the whole illusion and grift wide open!🤣🤣🤣
Boxxer on the show sponsored by TalkSport
What Shalom is doing with Azim is just the same as what Ingle did with Hamed who a oided every big punching Mexican there was!!! Soto who he beat for the wbc won the title in a freakish way as a 25-1 underdog!!
Nonsense! Watch how these move Whittaker.
@@BelfastBoxingNBlues he really ain't all that. A lot of sluggers at 175 coming thru.
@@UKMXUSAMexicoUKUSA a lot of good guys at 168 too. Let’s see how they move him.
If you look closely, Spencer is giving his boss Ben a little tug under the desk like a good little boy
You don’t mean there is a special handshake going down do you?
I’m a huge Canyello fan 😂
The Azim-Smith fight shouldn't happen now and the truth is that Azim is 21 with zero senior amateur experience/still developing, whereas Dalton is 27 and ready to step up. Eddie knows that Dalton can't beat the 140 pounders in his stable like Hitchins and Matias so he's latching on to an inexperienced Azim which also helps build Smith's profile. I definitely agree that Shalom and the Mcguigan's haven't managed this situation well in the slightest but Eddie would have done the same had the roles been reversed as we've seen in the past with his fighters. Also, how many mandatories does one have to defend against before they can vacate the EBU without it being considered ducking? This is all just a PR move from Hearn and it helps distract you casual fans from the Conor Benn result/situation.
He’s senseless; trying to wrestle and continues to inevitably fall on his face and does nothing differently. Same approach same outcome every time 🤣
Never had boxing so good? Is he having a laugh . Fury and AJ fighting a UFC fighter?? It's not serious boxing
AJ did it for $50m before ppvs and to show he’s level above fury
Cmon man, boxing has been great lately let's be positive here
Ben knows his stuff and his fighters r in good hands with him good luck and keep making the right fights
Proved right by pulling Clarke out the fight at the time. What an event Sunday
He said Dalton Smith was one of the options on the table in a previous interview, he's just saying this to save face.
This is hilarious what a weasel of a human he doesn’t answer one question with a straight answer he’s just admitted he wanted azim out of that fight as well thinks sky fighters shouldn’t take risks 😂😂😂😂😂
Boxer’s are the bosses & the business remember that
There seems to be a pattern of becoming mandatory then 🦆 the champion, win the belt then 🦆 the mandatory 🤦🏾♂️🤣🤦🏾♂️
us as boxing fans are not interested in profile building we just want competitive fights.. ben!
Harlem vs Adam will still be a good fight. It does look a bit obvious that Adam vacates as soon as Dalton came to challenge
The move makes sense. Both fighters have been elevated in profile just by association. Azim can go out and make a statement against a name in Harlem Eubank, Dalton Smith can challenge for the EBU belt without waiting…. They’ll both come together next year or year after in a huge domestic clash for money, more titles and more eyes on both of them, so win or lose, it’s still progressing their careers.
Ben Shalom has essentially agreed with everything Eddie Hearn has said but used a different way to put it across. He pulls his fighters because he thinks they may get beat. It's v simple and as much as he is looking our for his fighters, people in boxing will start to look at Ben Shalom and say, he doesn't get us the best fights, he gets us the easiest fights.
I understand where Ben is coming from but to pull Richard riaphore out of a world title shot I don't understand and it would of made sense for talk sport to push a bit more on that specific fight
Got the personality of a door bless him
shalom just looking after his fighters intrest and doing the right thing. i like him
If Azim is not good enough to fight Dalton, why would you let him become a European champion, once you become a European champion, the stabilisers are off, Shalom is the Southgate of boxing.
Whose the fella in the white hoodie? He talks sense, dosent beat around the bush, says it as it is. Hes bang on
Like a politician can’t answer a simple question, he’s so bad for boxing and actually harming his fighters than doing them any good
Who is Dalton Smith??
why does white hoodie guy interrupt ? he sounds like a proper casual
Really wanted someone to say dont call me Shirley
Well they missed some huge questions out here 🤦♂️
Spencer is a SHALOM fan boy 😂
He makes sense when he says they want the biggest names, stop hating the fight will be made when the time is right stop crying about it, even dalton admits this ! Ben is only doing what best for them and that’s how it should be.
"top boxing promoter" would never be a phrase I'd think of to describe Ben 😂
What is his ratio of fight pull outs to fights made for his boxers?
All these TalkSport presenters (including Spencer) are all casuals
Shalom is right sadly, Smith needs the Azim fight right now more than Azim needs Smith. From a career, timing, profile and financial point of view. As much as I’d love to see it, from a management point of view that fight is better for Azim is in 2 years when Azim is 23 and Smith is 29 and there will be more money on the table. Eddie needs that fight now and knows it’s best for his man hence he’s pressing every button he can to bring the heat.
I respect bens honesty
Sure there have been 4 or 5 fights that were mandated between boxer and matchroom. Shalom pulled them all. Should have asked him about that
If it looks like a Duck 🦆 Sounds like a Duck 🦆 Then It’s a Duck 🦆 😂👍👊 He didn’t want any part of SHEFFIELD STEEL Dalton Smith SWFC 🥊👍👊
Shalom started issuing a "challenge" to Eddie and Jim cut him off the senile old git. We know Eddie loves a challenge and that could’ve led to something epic😤
But why fight for the belt in the first play if you don't want to fight the mandatory
A lot of hate on here but I respect Ben for having his fighters best interest at heart he was spot on with Hearn chucking his fighter in with Opiteia.
Ben has Bens best interest at heart
How is Shalom a boxing promoter he doesn’t have anything between his ears 🤣
I thought Ben shalom sounded good
Running around the questions without answering them and he's always looking around, never to the person speaking. Something not right with him
Because he Doesn’t want to Fight the Man of STEEL Dalton Smith is a very respectful Guy- But AZIM Team have made him look very Silly & Ben as being so slow here Good Luck to Both But Dalton Smith is a great Fighter who will go all the way Sheffield Steel SWFC - Let’s see him Fight at Hillsborough Stadium Soon 💙🔥💯🥊👏👍👊 But that was a Huge Duck 🦆 Ben & you know it
Eddie is after Azim because he knows he hasnt fully developed yet in experience. This is what eddie does. He targets inexperienced big name up and coming fighters as easy targets for his experienced guys and tries to get in their heads
Worst promoter out there
Ben answers questions like a poor politician, lots of words, no real substance.
WTF does Peterborough owner no about boxing lol
There's no duck. They just don't want to enter negotiations under the sanctioning bodies' terms
I agree with the development of Boxers fighter's so stop over hyping them and calling people out at a certain level when your not ready for them to fight at that level🙄
Smith has a way bigger profile that Aziz what’s he on about.
Just ignored the Richard Riakphore fight...
Paint Drying watches Ben Shalom
Ben makes me laugh, Clarke vs Wach had no bearing on the wardley fight, making out it did him the world of good. It would have been the same fight regardless. The timing only worked out well because it was on sky 😂
Eddie probably would sit across from Ben if they were making fights😂 Matchroom do deal with Ben but it's Frank Smith that he talks to.
Shalom has all the panache of a bag of sprouts rolled in dog dirt.
Whos the mouthy paddy
Next year when the Booxer contract is up for renewal with sky - I think we will find GBM Sports at the table 😮
Kin Yellow
Sam Jone and Eddie have said past couple of weeks what they would say and do if they managed Adam and it’s like Ben has writte down word for word knowing what everybody was ask him haha
