Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn announced plans to sign UFC fighters as part of what he described as a "revolution" brewing in combat sports.

Hearn, who promotes major boxing events through Matchroom Boxing, told Uncrowned that he is taking an unusually quiet approach to his latest venture. "For the first time in my career, I'm going to work in some silence," Hearn said. "Because I need to get this right, and it's going to be very, very interesting what's about to unfold over the next couple of months."

The promoter did not specify which UFC fighters he is targeting or provide details about the nature of the deals he is pursuing. Hearn's comments suggest he sees an opportunity to capitalize on potential changes in the mixed martial arts landscape.

Meanwhile, UFC heavyweight Tom Aspinall has indicated he plans to take a more aggressive stance with the organization following what he described as controversial treatment. The 32-year-old British fighter referenced issues stemming from UFC 321 and suggested he would adopt a "ruthless" approach moving forward, stating "Nobody in there is your friend."

Hearn's move to recruit from the UFC roster represents a notable crossover attempt between boxing and mixed martial arts promotions, though the specifics of his strategy remain unclear.
