Eddie Hearn is set to shake things up for England rugby star Henry Pollock! 🏉 Last week, Pollock signed with Matchroom Talent Agency, and Hearn is ready to boost his off-field earnings significantly. The renowned promoter, known for his work in boxing, thinks Pollock’s got all the makings of a superstar!
Hearn says, “I’m going to make him more money off the field than he’s making on the field.” With plans to align Pollock with major brands, expect to see his face everywhere – even if it might get a bit overwhelming! Hearn believes he can build Pollock’s brand without him being left to small gigs.
But it’s not all media and endorsements – there’s still the rugby to think about. Hearn acknowledges that Pollock needs to stay at the top of his game and get selected for England to live up to the hype.
Henry Pollock, just 21 and already a British and Irish Lions tourist, is labelled as having “everything.” As Hearn critiques rugby’s lack of vision, he insists Pollock is the answer to getting casual fans invested in the sport.
Could this partnership be the start of a new era in rugby promotion? Only time will tell, but Hearn is confident that Pollock has the potential to be the sport’s next big star. 🌟 Watch this space!
