Do these fighters make more fighting in the USA than they do in the U.K.? I ask because if they are just taking on journeymen types why not just do it in the U.K.? Do they make more fighting for matchroom USA cards than Matchroom (U.K.)?

It is to satisfy Hearn's huge ego, nothing else. Money is not an issue for him, Sir Len Blavatnik is ready to lose billion dollars a year on DAZN for many more years till it becomes profitable or IPO.

Got it, growth of the company. More power to them.
It couldn't hurt these two men to box here in the US and get some exposure they would not likely get otherwise. I mean if they are both going to fight less then top level competition (I have no problem with that for either of these fighters), than marketing them to the American boxing public is a fine strategy. They are already celebrities' at home in the UK.
Side note, I kind of hope Lawrence Okolie and his team elect to stay at CW for a few years.
