Eddie Hearn has identified three fighters who can be the next American boxing star and all of them are members of the Matchroom stable.
Hearn has been promoting in America for a number of years now with the likes of Canelo Alvarez and Anthony Joshuia headlining huge shows with Matchroom making an instant impact.
As well as putting big names in a prominent position on Matchroom USA shows, Hearn is also looking towards the future by signing many young fighters.
A lot of those boxers have impressed in the preliminary stages of their careers and although the Matchroom boss has high hopes for many of his stable, he’s selected three names to watch out for.
“Ammo Williams has got a great opportunity. He’s fighting Steve Rolls on September 23rd in a great show in Orlando,” said Hearn when asked by Boxing Social who will be boxing's next megastar.
“I think Diego Pacheco has been one of the standout fighters. 6 foot 4, super-middleweight, knocking everyone out, huge fanbase building in Los Angeles as well.”
“Ray Ford as well. We’ll see what happens with Wood-Warrington, but it’s likely he’s gonna fight Khlomatov for the world title. I think he’s a tremendous talent.”
