Ellerbe is the CEO of Mayweather Promotions, having worked with Floyd Mayweather for years. It's fair to say Ellerbe does not like the way Hearn does business, and the main topic of their beef with one and other is the exceptional talent that is Gervonta Davis. Hearn has made it pretty clear that he would love to sign Davis, and is convinced he would make him a bigger global star than he already is.
When Hearn was asked by IntuBoxing about Ellerbe, he responded: "Maybe he needs cheering up, we'll sing him a song or something." Hearn then proceeded to belt out his own rendition of 'Ain't No Sunshine' but modified the lyrics to sum up the subject of their beef, and questioned Ellerbe's 'obsession' with Hearn.

Even well established journalist Dan Rafael admitted he found the clip hilarious: "I've got no dog in the fight and have no issue with either guy but just being honest, this is hilarious!"

It safe to say Hearn knows how to grab the headlines. Ellerbe is yet to respond, but I'm sure its not just us who want him to sing aswell!
