Its not his fathers money that made Eddie the way he is,its his father overwhelming drive, & to survive, Eddie had to either emulate that drive or be crushed by it. Eddie really didn’t have a choice in the path he took in life, his fathers aggressively competitive nature, forced it on him. Im not sure if thats a good thing…But its fascinating to observe the consequences of this father son relationship play out, in real time, in the rise of Eddie Hern. It kind of reminds of the Godfather book & films. Michael Corleone ended up, walking his fathers path & emulating his ways, not because The Godfather, Don Corleone, forced his ways or life on Michael, but because Don Corleone’s personality, was so strong & intense, that Michael could not escape his orbit, even though he tried. Barry Hearn made Eddie what he is, simply by being himself & because of that Eddie did not choose his destiny, his destiny chose him. Deep down, both father & son are aware of this.

Barry's a legend bit of a face round London, but what he's done for Snooker,Darts and Boxing is incredible and Eddie has taken the riegns and ran with it. Eddie and Dana White are the best in combat sports. and you need a Logo that yellow performance people not good. i can make Logos tbh.

The woman is a really good presenter and interviewer. The guy is really dull and rigid. Change it up.

They’re a husband and wife team and he has 4 Olympic gold medals… would give him a break! British hero.
