"Apologies... Yeah, we are live."

Eddie Hearn found himself in an embarrassing situation live on TV on Friday, as he mistook the live broadcast of a weigh-in at Fight Camp for a rehearsal and to shouted "Cha'mone, motherfuckers" as a joke. If the silence that followed didn't tell him what he'd just done, the presenter clarifying, "yeah, we are live" confirmed it. To be fair, Hearn owned what must have been quite a mortifying experience by laughing it off. This sort of faux pas suits his reputation as a class clown anyway, so he's not exactly let anyone down with this gaffe. Bar maybe the TV director who must have facepalmed their keyboard. https://twitter.com/TheHedgeMonster/status/1289172908011425794 Hearn confronted the incident on Twitter, posting: "That was awkward..when you think it’s a rehearsal." https://twitter.com/EddieHearn/status/1289178731806724105
