Part 2/5:
The Lomachenko Gamble
Hearn decided to bring in one of the greatest fighters at the time, Vasyl Lomachenko, to fight in the UK against British lightweight Luke Campbell. Hearn thought this would be a huge event that would help them recover from the Joshua loss, but it ended up flopping on pay-per-view.
Hearn admits this was one of his biggest mistakes, saying "we probably lost a million bucks there as well." He learned a valuable lesson - "don't ever ever make decisions based off emotion again." Hearn's father and CEO would often tease him about that Lomachenko decision.
