Eddie Hearn criticized Netflix's involvement in the potential Mayweather vs. Pacquiao rematch, labeling the entire situation a "mess." He expressed concern that the streaming platform's reputation could be damaged by announcing a major fight that eventually falls through. Hearn suggested that while Netflix is new to the sport, they need to establish more solid and reliable routines to maintain credibility in the boxing world.
“The whole thing is a mess. I’m surprised that Netflix got involved in the whole circus [Mayeather vs Pacman 2] of it… Netflix are new into boxing but they have got to be a bit more solid in a routine, because you can’t really announce a fight and it just falls by the wayside, it just doesn’t look great." - Eddie Hearn
