With the hotel on-site for the players and personnel, Hearn said the Marshall Arena has received rave reviews.
He said: "The feedback we have had this week from the players at the venue in Milton Keynes has been excellent. Any concerns they may have had about their own welfare have been laid to rest - in fact one player described it as 'probably the safest place on Earth."
