Eddie Hearn disputes Dana White’s alleged producer role in Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua
White was asked about the Fury-Joshua saga UFC 332 at the post-fight press conference, where he reiterated his involvement in the heavyweight showdown and said the event would be handled by the UFC’s production team.
“We’re producing a show. Just like Canelo-Crawford, same thing,” White said. “Craig Borsari, Zach, my whole team. We’re producing the show. My little phone is on the table like tonight and every other show I produce. I’m there. I’m producing it. I’m promoting it. See you in Wales.”
Hearn responded at a recent press conference, disputing White’s claims.
“To be honest with you, I think he’s absolutely ready,” Hearn said. “He actually said, ‘We’re going to do a TV production,’ which again is prohibited in the contract.”
Hearn said he then contacted SELA, the Saudi company involved in the event, and claimed he was told White could not take the role he described.
“After that video, I spoke to SELA and said, ‘Have you seen the video?’ They said, ‘Yes, and it’s completely false.’ He can’t do that under contract.
