The young English rugby star and Northampton Saints player, Henry Pollock, has signed with Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Talent Agency.
Pollock, 21, is considered one of rugby’s biggest prospects and will now be guided by boxing promoter Hearn.
Hearn formed Matchroom Talent Agency earlier this month and launched the new company by announcing the signing of UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall.
Pollock, who also played for the British & Irish Lions last year, has become Hearn’s second signing.
Hearn, who has also guided the careers of boxing stars like Anthony Joshua and Katie Taylor, praised Pollock’s impact on rugby at such a young age.I am delighted to join forces with Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Talent Agency alongside Stellar Rugby, at such an exciting stage of my career.

With Henry, alongside UFC heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall, we are building an all-star team, and we have many more big names to incorporate as our new Matchroom Talent Agency moves forward in leaps and bounds.I saw this guy and immediately thought: superstar. Honestly, I think he can light up this sport on his own and I’m delighted to welcome him to the Matchroom family.
