The head of the promotion company Matchroom Boxing, Eddie Hearn, shared his thoughts on the potential debut of the famous English footballer Wayne Rooney in professional boxing.
“I’ve already spoken to Wayne. He boxed, was an amateur and knows how to get in shape. Now he is focused on football, but never say never. I think he would like to try, promoters have contacted him. I don't think we'll see him fight now, but I wouldn't rule it out in the future.
As I said, the fight between Wayne Rooney and Jake Paul at Old Trafford is a huge event, and I’ll bet on Wayne Rooney to win,” DAZN quotes Hearn as saying.
