Macklins WBC eliminator fight is off due to Jamie Moore being shot.

Seems a bit excessive given his opponent wasn't much of a standard. Maybe Hearn realised he had massively underestimated the demand for the show and was happy enough to pull it and do it again at a later date in a bigger venue.

Macklin probably could have brought in someone to get him through the next fight. He was up against a nobody. Maybe Hearns brother in law Tony Sims.

Hearn might have been happy enough just to cancel the show and reschedule it later at a much bigger venue and make more money. The venue he booked originally was much smaller than the demand.

According to reports this was a sell out so ticket sales don't appear to be the reason.

Yes the venue was too small. Hence why Hearn might have been happy to cancel the show and reschedule later at a venue with a bigger capacity.

Nothing to do with his trainer getting shot then, no that would be outlandish far better to embellish a conspiracy theory.

Maybe some people thought they should reevaluate who they are friends with.
